Wild Workshop
October 5, 2017
Various publications students will attend the annual FSPA workshop on Friday, Oct. 6 at Daytona State College. Numerous students and guest speakers will provide presentations about different journalism skills. Seniors Rachel Montgomery and Alexa Carlos Tamez are going to show a presentation about feature writing.
“I’m excited because I’m good at presenting,” Montgomery said. “And I will look cute.”
Junior Anna Wilder plans to run for FSPA District 3 Representative. She will create a campaign and short speech, which will be given at Friday’s workshop.
“I’m a little nervous,” Wilder said. “I haven’t been [to the workshop] before and I don’t really like talking.”
West Shore is not new to the FSPA District 3 Representative position, however. Senior Gianni Valenti won the position last year, and said he is hopeful that Wilder will take this year’s.
“I think Anna will win because I know what [the voters] are looking for,” Valenti said. “They’re not only looking for people who are outgoing, but people who are qualified as well. Anna definitely has the credentials. I’m a little worried that she’ll be nervous when she’s talking, but I’m confident that she’ll win.”

"We've had no issues, no snafus. Everything's been running smoothly, and we've been getting kids to class on time.”](https://westshoreroar.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/IMG_9979-1200x800.jpg)
