After many months of work from our staff, Purple Pages is finally printing our premier issue. We interviewed former Vice President Hazel Roy (10) about their experience last year.
“I love the idea of starting a newspaper for the school, and was eager to start. ”
But starting was more difficult than we anticipated, with finding a place to print proving painful.
“We contacted all magazines in Chico to ask how they printed, and when that failed we looked online to find a place to print.”
Procuring a place to print wasn’t our only problem. To fund the printing of the paper for this year would be around $5000. Staff members spent their Fridays after school researching alternative printing prices to no avail. Some staff even worked over the summer, seeking donations to fund this printing project. This year, with a larger team, we predict we will find a more permanent solution to our printing problem. For now, Purple Pages is printed on campus.
We are so pleased it’s finally possible for you to pick up this printed Purple Pages publication.
