Hard work pays off for our middle schoolers taking Journalism as their elective this semester! In this first issue of Hope News Network for the 2026–27 school year, our student writers explore fascinating topics including the psychology of addiction, the art of ventriloquism, and social anxiety. You’ll also find an easy and delicious recipe, the results of a cookie taste test, and—just in time for Halloween—some spooky middle school stories.
Plus, our writers share helpful tips for improving memory retention. And be sure to save some time for the end, where you’ll find comics and puzzles to enjoy!
That’s a lot of ground covered in one issue, and there’s plenty more to come throughout the year. We’re proud of our student journalists and excited to share their work with our community!
