Dexter, Missouri – Chris Bolin’s journalism class has created the first ever school newspaper at T.S. Hill Middle School. The DMS Press has already published two newsletters since classes began in August. The students really enjoy writing, taking photos, and seeing their peers read their newsletter.
The ShowMe Times will feature various articles written by middle school students and will feature them on our website.
Brooke Hessling, 8th grade student and the Sports Editor of the DMS Press, writes our first featured article, entitled “Why So Stressed?”
"Being a student athlete can be very stressful. Focusing on sports and your academics can put a lot of pressure on you! Student athletes have to balance those two things. Being a good athlete and good student is harder than what you think.
Students who play sports are usually always stressed out. If you do both you worry about how well you play, and you worry about how well you do on your schoolwork. Most athletes get home from practice at about six o’clock. After they eat, do their homework, and do the other things they have to do, it is late at night. So, all of that pretty much takes up the rest of their day.
Athletes get stressed the most when they get home late from practice or have a game. If they get home late from practice that just sets everything else they have to do back even later. Therefore, they go to bed really late. When student athletes have a game it stresses them out a lot because they get home even later than usual. So, they ether have to do their homework before or after the game. It is hard being a student and playing a sport. Our middle school student athletes do a very good job of keeping their grades up and playing their sport well. Even though they get home late from either practice or a game, they still mange to do their schoolwork. T.S. Hill athletes do a wonderful job at balancing both their schoolwork and their sport.
T.S. Hill should be very proud of our student athletes. Not only do our athletes handle their stress, they work just as hard on the court, field, etc. as they do in the classroom. Being a student is hard, try being a student and an athlete. It isn’t easy!"
Well done Brooke! We will feature more article by T.S. Hill Students as the school year progresses!
