The V.I.P. ("Victor's Important Paper") is completely produced and written by the students of the School Newspaper Enrichment Class. All decisions about articles for the newspaper are the responsibility of the student staff.

The V.I.P. is a monthly production, and it is distributing to all Victor Junior High students and staff, as well as the Board of Education and the District Administration. Copies are available to the general public upon request.
In the future, we hope to have an online version of the newspaper, but that is still in the works.


Our goals are to…

• Report on what is happening in the Junior High School from a student perspective.
• Improve the writing skills of the student staff to help them meet and exceed New York State standards. 
• Give students experience in all aspects of journalism: reporting, photography, graphic design, editorializing, editing.

Student Expectations…

• All students on the V.I.P. staff are expected to make at least one contribution to the newspaper every month. Their contribution can be an article, a layout design, a photo montage, or a cartoon. 
• The staff strives towards high journalistic standards - truthfulness, fairness, correct usage of the English language. 
• The quality of the newspaper should continue to grow, as their experience grows.
