Reflection

This year I started my second year as social media managing editor to an Instagram account which has grown to have over 6k followers. When I think about the work I do for this account, it extends past just planning out what events we need to send a photographer to or who is planning to write captions for last night's soccer game. To me, the account has given me the opportunity to showcase everyone in our community. While not every student has the opportunity to have a story about them in our newspaper, I have the keys to a platform that could recognize anyone’s small everyday successes. While covering a volleyball game I could highlight the player who scored 11 points. While watching the school musical I could celebrate someone in their first lead role. While not every post I work on includes a long caption, such as when I post live set-by-set updates from a volleyball game with limited time to write or a simple schedule so kids know what class to go to, the main mission I have always tried to complete through my work on social media is representing the school community that I am so lucky to have.
