Lona Star Dispatch Issue #1- News Evaluation

Age Old Battle Still On Going

1.
WHO: Senior Parker Smith
WHAT: Standing up for women's rights
WHERE: Bowie High School
WHEN: September 4,2015
WHY: She was dress coded for a shirt she wore
HOW: She spoke out against the injustice

2.
Senior Parker Smith felt singled out when dress coded for a shirt that she was eating. Many students felt the same way and when Parker Smith posted this story on twitter it became a hit. Many people supported her while some called her out but either way she brought more attention to a forgoing problem in many schools today.

-I think saying "the true problem at hand is one that dates back beyond the women's rights protests" is an opinion because some may not believe that that is the "true" problem.

AGE OLD BATTLE STILL ON GOING
-Yes it does summarize the idea of the story

Building A Better Education Thanks to AISD Bond

1.
WHO: Students
WHAT: New trainer room and kitchen
WHEN: This year (2015)
WHERE: James Bowie High School
WHY: We have more money available
HOW: The bond package passed by voters

2.
Due to the AISD bond package Bowie had money to spend on improvements this year. Bowie chose to update the trainer's room, the culinary kitchen, and build a stand outside. The training room is now able to allow students the room they need to stay in good condition, the kitchen allows for a ether culinary experience, and now Andy is able to stop those trying to leave campus.

4.
I think saying "in the end, all of the changes around campus have been made to help students have a better experience at school" is an opinion. Some may not think these are making school better, especially those whom are not seniors and want to leave campus.

5.
BUILDING A BETTER EDUCATION THANKS TO AISD BOND
-I don't think it summarizes very well because a training room and a post for Andy have nothing really to do with your personal education

6.
 Yes

4.
I think that "just by reading for 30 minutes a day the score on these exams will go up" is an opinion. this may only be true for some students and is not a factual statement.

5. SAT AND ACT WILL CHANGE IN MARCH
-Yes it summarizes the story

6.
Yes

WHO: ?

WHO: Teachers and Student
WHAT: Renovations to Bowie
WHEN: 2013

Through the money that Bowie received from the bond, improvements are being made to the school. Students and teachers have both noticed these changes such as new clocks, Tvs and renovated bathrooms. Although many things are being fixed, some very important renovations or supplies are lacking.

I think saying "hearing about the bond was exciting for staff and students" is an opinion because unless someone said that, you don't know that they are all excited.
