Foothill High School senior and Editor-in-Chief of fhspress.com, Alison Watkins, won two first place awards, for Best Photography and Best Graphic Art/Design respectively, at the 7th Annual Journalism Awards Dinner hosted by the Sacramento High School Journalism Network on May 9, 2018. The event was held at the Conference Center of the Sacramento County Office of Education (SCOE).

There were approximately 100 people attending the prestigious event. Among the attendees were various guest speakers who spoke on the different categories, presented awards, and offered advice to the future journalists. This year was a deviation from last year as the event was held at the Conference Center of SCOE instead of last year’s location, the SCOE District Office.
