Mission Statement

The Hotchkiss Record Mission

Goals and Principles

The primary mission of The Hotchkiss Record is to record the history of events and people at Hotchkiss and the surrounding community. The Record aims to provide a platform that uplifts community members’ voices and faithfully and comprehensively chronicles life of the school.

As an organization comprised of students, The Record endeavors to educate staff members about the standards and ethics of professional journalism. We strive to provide the most accurate and comprehensive information possible, and aim to make our operating procedures as transparent as possible.

The Hotchkiss Record does not discriminate against anyone on the basis of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, national origin, citizenship, gender, ability, or age.

Content

The Record covers newsworthy events on campus and in the surrounding community, along with national and international news that impact the school. The Record will not publish content that breaks the school rules outlined in The Almanac.

Opinions pieces reflect the views of the writer, not the school, Editors-in-Chief, nor The Record. Editorial pieces are written by the current Editors-in-Chief.

Corrections

If The Record makes any errors, community members may submit a correction by emailing the editors at [email protected]. Errata will be published the following issue. The Editors-in-Chief take responsibility for any errors published in The Hotchkiss Record.
