There is an after school program at Crete-Monee for people who love to write and want to learn about journalism.

E-Journalism and is run by Mr. Kenealy, who teaches journalism, AP Literature and Junior English.

Students learned how to create a blog by watching a video that shows them step by step what to do when creating a blog. This blog is set up for students to do stories for the online newspaper at Crete-Monee. Students will put stories on the online blog that do not make it to the actual newspaper that will be given out.

Mr. Kenealy said, “Creating this blog will help our stories students have written get out.” 

E- Journalism meets once a month and they learn something new every time. E- Journalism members have an opportunity to make stories concerning the school and what goes on inside Crete-Monee.

The newspaper and blog is a good way for students who aren’t involved in extracurricular activities to see what is happening around the school. By figuring out news here at Crete, to hearing from the student’s about their experiences and all the fun games here. Although Mr. Kenealy could not give an exact release date for the online Web site, he did say Crete-Monee will see the newspaper and the online blog in the near future.
