Texas principal censors paper, bans all editorials and ousts award-winning adviser
TEXAS — After censoring the Eagle Nation Online three times this academic year over concerns that stories made the school look bad, the principal of Prosper (Texas) High School, did not renew the contract of a nationally acclaimed newspaper and yearbook adviser.
Lori Oglesbee-Petter, a journalism teacher with 34 years of experience in three states, has been at Prosper since May 2016. Last year alone, her journalism students racked up more than 175 state and national journalism awards.
