The MINi-TiMES

     Barbara Minutillo's 5th grade class worked with Michelle McCleary-Siss and husband Will, both employees of the Republican-American, to create a special supplement to the newspaper.  The issue, titled the MINi TiMES, ran on February 2, 2006.

   In October, students chose jobs such as reporter, cartoonist, photographer, and editor and then worked extra hours at home to create this special edition.  Mrs. Minutillo was impressed with the students' level of commitment to the project and felt that the experience of creating the paper was a wonderful way to hone their revising and editing skills.  They also learned important lessons about deadlines and responsibility.
