The Newscope Editorial Staff is proud to announce that the first issue of the school paper is on publishing phase already. The Staff is excited to share with us all the newly-designed lay-out of the paper. And as part of the SG's platform, there is a page dedicated for the events related to the Student Government although the interview portion is said to be added on the 2nd release due to the lack of space for other articles.

The paper is expected to be released Thursday or Friday this coming week. We would like to remind everyone to be mindful of their copies and to kindly not throw them away. Remember, you PAID 100.00 for the School Paper Publication during the enrollment period so throwing away your copy of the first issue is just similar to throwing away 50.00.

The Staff promises a 2nd issue before the school year ends. Thanks!
