About

My name is Michelle Harmon and I am a teacher and a journalist.

I am the new JEA State Director for Idaho and the president of the Idaho State Journalism Association.  If you are looking for a community of like-minded scholastic journalism educators, please consider joining ISJA.

Teaching

I have been teaching at Borah High School in Boise, Idaho since 2004, after going back to school for my M.Ed.  Before that, I lived and worked in New York City.

At Borah, I teach English and journalism classes, and I am the adviser of its school newspaper, The Borah Senator, which is both a traditional print publication and an online news site.

Goal of this Blog

For the past few years, I have used blogging in my journalism classroom.  However, I’d like to learn more about blogging and use this platform to write about ISJA’s activities and journalism in Idaho in particular.
