Garden City High School’s student magazine, Inkspots, has been recognized as a SUPERIOR magazine by the National Council of Teachers of English in the 2023 NCTE Recognizing Excellence in Art and Literary Magazines program. This year, schools in 46 states and five countries nominated 375 student magazines. Magazines from middle school, high school and higher education were welcomed for the 2023 contest.
Co-advisers of the magazine, high school librarian Margeuax Calemmo and English teacher Catherine Oriani, were excited for the students whose hard work garnered this recognition.
"Ms. Oriani and I are so proud of our student staff, writers and visual artists whose efforts and dedication produced our award-winning journal last year under the leadership of Steven Scricca, the editor-in-chief,” Calemmo said. “Inkspots, which begun in 1928, is more than a publication, it is a club that supports and nurtures a creative community within Garden City High School. It has been an honor to guide students through their creative endeavors and to contribute to Inkspots' 95-year tradition of excellence.”
