-A very talented group of fifth grade writers collaborated on their very first issue of Discovery Academy’s own The Three Amigas and The News You Need online newspaper. They chose important topics to research, invented a unique layout with comics, ads, an advice column, and included a special Martin Luther King, Jr., essay contest section. Stay tuned for February issue, coming soon!
