The first @fspa yearbook evaluations are being returned to schools, and I’ve already seen some celebratory All Florida posts!

[Adam Livesay @AdamALivesay]

It’s hard to start thinking about next year, but at least there’s something exciting to look forward to! I can’t wait.

[FSPA @FSPA]

Before we head off for summer vacation, make plans to attend our district workshops in the fall!

[Adam Livesay @AdamALivesay]

We will continue looking into the policy that initiated this, and hope to work with the school board to make sure the policies for student journalism protects student journalists in Seminole County.

[FSPA @FSPA]

Update: the school board voted last night to NOT censor the yearbook, and instead include a statement that aligned the spread with school board policy, making it clear the walk out was not school sanctioned. https://t.co/VkJ2xQV0nh

An official statement from @fspa is forthcoming, but we stand with these journalists and against the censorship of fair and accurate reporting protected by the First Amendment.

[Student Press Law Center @SPLC]

🧵 CENSORSHIP ALERT: Administrators of Seminole County Public Schools in Florida have prevented the distribution of @LymanJournalism yearbook because of a spread documenting the student walkout over the state's "Don't Say Gay" law.

[Adam Livesay @AdamALivesay]
