On May 26 the Sun got a visit from students of Mary Buren Elementary School in Guadalupe. The group of third through fifth graders put out the school’s newspaper called Bobby’s Journal. Having a group of young and experienced reporters about, we decided to put them to work. The Sun staff handed them cameras and notebooks and then turned over Streetwise to them. Split into two groups, the students thought up a question to ask the other group. Then each interviewed another student, took their photograph and was interviewed themselves. The Sun is proud to have given these young reporters their first opportunity to be published.
