The Rodeo, which is printed each week in the Keith County News, is the school's means of keep- ing parents informed about school activities. The Aiallago is the school paper edited every six weeks. Compositions and articles of all types written by the students are printed in the Aiallago. Through this medium, many students have been given experience in journalism and the chance to bring out talent in writing. The two publications were edited effectively by capable staffs under the sponsor- ship of Mr. Payne.
