NSPA Recognizes The Oracle and Archer Journalists

The National Scholastic Press Association (NSPA) has lauded the 2024–2025 Oracle, granting last year’s staff four marks of distinction and the highest rating possible: All-American. The judge, David Cutler, stated, “I see The Oracle as one of the best student news sites in the nation—a vibrant, well-run publication with strong reporting, a high volume of timely coverage, and a willingness to tackle challenging stories right from the start of the year.”

Additionally, Natalie L. ’26 and Oona S. ’26 have won national awards in NSPA’s Spring 2025 Clips & Clicks contest. Natalie won third place in the Feature Photo category for her photo “Apple of My Pie” in Archer’s yearbook, Hestia’s Flame. Oona won an Honorable Mention for her Oracle article, “Review: Mac Miller’s second posthumous release, ‘Balloonerism,’ embodies his lasting legacy.”
