The Way to Start...(G.O.S.S)

Joseph Folgar a 14 year old freshmen at South East High School hope to be very successful in life.

Folgar says he wants to go to collage and be a musician. “I want to get good grades so I am accepted into USC. I need to study way more and pull up my grades.” Folgar also wants to get into more programs at SEHS and other places. Folgar hopes be successful and graduating out of SEHS will be the first step in his long successful journey.

Folgar is currently in band. He hopes to find his passion in band. Since he wants to be a musician its the perfect exercise for it. My opinion, is that it is very good practice. Folgar is not doing bad in this classes, he is doing quite well. So this is Joseph Folgar journey to become a successful and proffesstional musician.

Code of Ethics

Preamble-I am a member of the Society of Professional Journalist believe that ypu should not plagiarize, steal nobody's story, tell the truth, and be 100% accurate. I as a member will follow all of these rules and will not define and violate them. You should do the same thing and maybe you can get a lot of credibility.

Seek Truth and Report it
  • Journalist should be fair with others, honest, and 100% accurate at all times. To be fair you have to get both sides of the story not just one side.
  • If you do plagiarize their will be some serious consequences coming to you. So just stay out of it and you will end up being a good journalist for the newspaper.
  • If you are 100% accurate more people will like maybe love to read your stories. You can maybe get follwers or get more.
  • Try not to steal anybody's stories. If you see a story and you see some one that already took it even though you hate the persontry your best not to steal it. You can get more respect if you do.
  • When you get a story make sure the source is the truth if not it can end up being being fake and wrong.

A Farewell to Summer

What Carlos Gonzalez did this summer is that he went swimming, hiking and worked. He really didn't go anywhere special during summer. He told me he was kind of bored during his break. What did get was some cool stuff. He got an i-Pod and some new cloths for school. He said his summer was cool, lazy, and calm. He said over all he did have a great summer. Gonzalez needed money during his vacation so he worked to earn money. He did learn some things over vacation. He learned that its not good to be lazy during vacation. Gonzalez met some new people. He met people that are calm, funny, lazy and adventures, those type of people. This is how Gonzalez summer was like.
