The newspaper informs students about events, influences its readers through responsible editorials and entertains through features. As an established open forum for the student body, truth is the staff ’s major goal. These goals are achieved through thorough and responsible reporting. Editorials reflect the views of the staff and do not represent views of the school board, administrators, faculty or the student body of Wharton High School. All by-lined articles and artwork reflect the opinions of the writers and artists. To contact the newspaper for any questions or concerns, email kyle.lojacono@sdhc.k12.fl.us. Our website and Twitter handle are whsblueandwhite.com and @NewspaperWHS. The Blue&White encourages letters which constitute a constructive avenue for all opinions. These letters must be signed. The staff reserves the right to edit letters for poor taste, space, libel and grammar. These changes will not affect the content or meaning behind the story. Ad rates are available by emailing kylelojacono@gmail.com Advertising which promotes illegal products labeled by Florida law, opposes any religion, is written in bad taste, includes racial comments or which includes false statements will not be accepted.
