Good showing by AHS in first UIL invitational of 2018-2019

Staff| December 11, 2018

Several Allen High School journalism students won top awards against stiff competition in the first UIL invitational of the 2018-2019 school year.

This first meet was virtual and hosted on each school’s own campus. The format gives schools a chance to prepare students for on-location competitions after winter break.

Several competitors from AHS are either in the introduction to journalism (J1) class or are in their first year of the advanced journalism program.
