About

The Wildcats Post is an online news publication of the WJ Student Media Club at West Johnston High School. The members and leadership of the Club believe in being a voice for all students. The Club has scheduled meetings throughout the school year. One of the 2025-2026 goals of the Club was to launch an online news publication that would share news and information for students and staff. Currently, the publication is scheduled to produce monthly editions throughout the school year. The publication is funded through the News Literacy Project Grant.

Additionally, content is also attributed from students.
