How much time do you have to put in?We met in the afternoon twice a week, at 3pm Mondays and Fridays. When we start out the month we are working on our own feature articles. This is less work than the submissions, but it takes time. We work on that for a week, doing research and writing it. When we get submissions that's when it's busy. We have a deadline to finish editing and laying out the articles. So the at the end of the month we work not only in meetings but at home about around 1-2 hours a week.

What are the best things about being a student editor?Grecia: Friendship and my best friend : ) Also working together:)
Maria: The best thing about being an editor is getting to see all your classmates and other grade articles!
Daniella: I agree! Seeing other people's articles is really fun, sometimes they write about something you remember learning when you were in that grade.
Destini: The best thing about being student editor is that we get to work together and we can all get our ideas down. We take time to research and write articles we are proud of.
Valena: Being able to see articles from other grades is so cool, you feel like you have a big responsibility when you edited it, which is fun.
Serenity: You're able to see people's reactions when they read the newspaper and you just feel proud after you're finished with it. It feels like you accomplished a lot, like playing on a team.

Any downsides to being a student editor?Nothing is good all the time. Sometimes it can get a little frustrating being a student editor. When people don’t come to meetings, they miss a lot and it makes more work for everyone else.
Also, it can be hard when you can’t come to a meeting because you have something important to do. And it's frustrating when you can't finish your work on time, you don't want to let the others down.
Some days you are tired and get a little rude or someone else can be a little rude too. Thats like any sport or club after school, there are gonna be some days like that sometimes.
