We are the advanced journalism students at Travis High School. We produce the Eye of the Tiger, The Tiger's Roar, and
the Stripes yearbook. We handle the announcements and hope to inform you through a morning news show beginning in the fall
of 2008. We videotape events, compile news packages, photograph various events and stay in touch with the newsmakers so we
can keep you informed.
The media team concept is a new approach in high schools. Rather than have a separate newspaper staff and yearbook staff,
beginning next year, all advanced journalism students will be involved in all aspects of media production, from print to video
to web.
This is our team:
