🌟Some personal news to end a busy week of news🌟
Today is my last day with The Daily Line.
Next week I will be joining the great team at @CapitolNewsIL as their newest statehouse reporter.
See you for veto session!
The journalism students at @Thornridge205 always have such great questions about the profession! The Foundation and @ILFarmBureau are proud to provide a journalism grant to their program to help them continue to learn and do great work!
The journalism students at St. Charles North High School are a fun bunch! The Foundation and @ILFarmBureau are happy to assist them with a high school journalism grant that will help them purchase an iPad, teleprompter kit and more!
What a fun visit to @LockportHS205 this morning! The Foundation and @ILFarmBureau are proud to support scholastic journalism efforts like those at @LTHSPorterPress!
Congrats to Julie Pusinelli, English Teacher & @LTHSPorterPress Sponsor, for applying for a grant from the Illinois Press Foundation & Illinois Farm Bureau. She was selected to receive money for the school newspaper & plans to put it towards a 📷 for the club.

Illinois Press Foundation Board member Linda Jones visited @CarlSchurzHS on Tuesday to take a grant check from @ILFarmBureau and the Foundation to help the efforts of the school's student journalists. Can't wait to see what they do in the school year ahead!
The work the students do at Madison School in South Holland and their Mad 7 Action News broadcast project is amazing! The Foundation and @ILFarmBureau are proud to support their efforts with a journalism grant check. Such a fantastic group of young students!
A journalism grant from @ILFarmBureau and the Foundation will allow @YorkD205 to purchase a new MacBook for its students so they can continue to do the fantastic multimedia work they're doing with @chambersatyork at the helm. We're proud to help the program there again!
An enjoyable and informative visit this morning with Mr. Majeske and his students at @EMPEHI4Ever to deliver a journalism grant from @ILFarmBureau and the Foundation! Was cool seeing the FIRST student newspaper published on Sept. 26, 1913!
This visit with @MrReinhart_Tech and his students was a great way to start a work week! Looking forward to seeing some of the livestreams and other work they are able to do with their journalism grant from @ILFarmBureau and the Foundation!
Thank you to @EditorJeffSir for coming to WHS today to present our @WCAT_Media students their mini grant check from the @ILPFoundation. We are going to purchase new wireless transmitters for use during our live streaming events to allow more flexibility in camera location!
We got to visit with great students and educators today during visits with journalism grant checks from @ILFarmBureau and the Foundation to Edwardsville, Carlyle, Harrisburg and Carterville.
The first High School Journalism Grant check of 2023 from @ILFarmBureau and The Illinois Press Foundation has been delivered. $1,500 to Putnam County High School to take its Paw Prints online, among other things. Congrats!
