Write For Us
The Helderbarker is produced in the English 12 Journalism class of the Clayton A. Bouton High School English Department, but submissions of news articles, sports articles, and opinion pieces are actively sought outside of the class writers. If you are a student of the Clayton A. Bouton High School or the Voorheesville Middle School and would like to submit your article or opinion piece for publication, either submit your piece to your English teacher or email the piece to us at helberbarker@vcsdk12.org. You will hear back within five school days as to the status of your piece.
Creative Writers
If you are interested in creative writing or the arts, why not submit your typed story, poem, essay, or digital art (photograph or scanned image) to the Blackbird Review, Voorheesville's literary and arts magazine? The magazine can be found at http://ves.neric.org/cabouton/cole/review/index.htm . All email submissions can be sent to writersinstitute@vcsdk12.org.
