Mike Schmitt, Dearborn High's journalism teacher, has officially been awarded the Golden Pen Award by the Michigan Interscholastic Press Association (MIPA), which is the highest honor MIPA bestows on a current adviser - and it can only be won once in an advisor's career!

This prestigious award is the highest statewide honor for a high school journalism teacher in Michigan. What makes it incredibly special is that it recognizes an outstanding current adviser of a scholastic student media outlet based on student-nominated portfolios, with the final selection made by past honorees. This speaks volumes about the immense impact Mike has on our students, mentoring them in their journalistic pursuits.

Congratulations, Mike!
