FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
February 12, 2021
The Indiana High School Press Association is proud to announce the finalists for the yearbook Hoosier Star Award.
IHSPA provides this opportunity for annual critique as a way for staffs to gain detailed feedback about their yearbook. Because our judges are able to provide specific comments on a number of important topics, yearbook staffs can use this evaluation as a way to measure progress, discuss strengths and weaknesses and set goals for improvement. Staffs are encouraged to use this in planning their next publication.
Hoosier Star finalists earn a “superior” or “excellent” ranking based on this guidebook and are consistent with the IHSPA core values of truth, courage, integrity and freedom. These publications will be recognized Friday, Oct. 22 at Franklin College during the 2020 state convention.
