Letter From the Editor

Words by Aaron Aguilar
Community Charter Early College High School

This issue has seen a wide variety of articles, concerning worldwide, regional and local issues. This time we did not have a particular focus, but preferred to have each writer and artist express and discuss what was striking to him or her personally. In this issue you will find articles concerning global warming, the conflict in Darfur, art or the lack thereof. We’re sure you will find something that will spark your interest! And for our Spanish readers, we have translated all articles to Spanish.

On another note, we would like to remind you that For the Record is open for thoughts, insights, and comments from you- the youth. We have a blog online at www.fortherecordnews.blogspot.com where you can post feedback for any of the articles in the newspaper. Be sure to take a look around!

We are making great progress and hope to continue to grow and have more volunteers. Our ultimate goal is to get all of us (the youth) involved in the community, and to have a space where we can speak up!
