Hi's Eye

Hi's Eye is the student-run weekly newspaper at Westfield High School located in Westfield in Union County, New Jersey. Hi's Eye is New Jersey's only weekly uncensored student newspaper, and one of the few uncensored school publications in the entire country.[1]

Hi's Eye has an editorial staff of Print Journalism seniors and is free from administrative prior review. The paper was established in 1935. It publishes 30 issues per year with a monthly Arts and Entertainment edition called Iris and Limited Edition. Hi's Eye is unique among many student run newspapers in that it is weekly, and that it is completely self-funded.

In September 2011, Hi's Eye unveiled a new online version. Hi's Eye aims to use the website to reach readers more often, and with more news that perhaps cannot always fit in the print version. The blog, which consists of weekly opinion articles, was created in May 2014. In September 2014, Hi's Eye created a Facebook Page, Twitter account, and Instagram account in hopes to reach a broader audience.

gollark: IKR, right?

gollark: They have some convoluted parsing mechanism to deal with everyone's bad invalid HTML, you see.
