BHS Senior, and Editor in Chief of The Register, Connor Byam has been named Vermont High School Journalist of the Year! The award was given by the New England Scholastic Press Association, which also named Connor as one of 17 members of its first-ever All New England High School Journalism Staff! The All New England Journalism Staff recognizes the top high school journalists working on newspapers, yearbooks, broadcasts, or literary magazines throughout the six New England states… Byam was the only Vermont member of the All New England Staff!
With his award, Byam has now also become eligible for the Journalism Education Association’s national Journalist of the Year competition. They will announce the winner of that award next month and we are all rooting for him.
Byam, featured in the Middlebury sweatshirt, was recognized by Superintendent Flanagan and Chair Wool for his accomplishments at the March 18 School Board meeting. Congratulations Connor!
