Forty high school students spent two weeks at Poynter this summer, learning about the craft and values of journalism. Three of them saw their work get published this week in the St. Petersburg Times in a package of stories about what freedom means to teens.

• Anna Scalamogna, who'll be a junior at Clearwater Central Catholic High, wrote about her brother going away to college, but gave her story a twist that landed the article on the front of the newspaper's feature section.
• Jamie Sheirer, who'll be a senior at the same school, wrote about freedom and friendship, and how her best friend doesn't share her interest in politics.
• Lindsay Holmes, who'll be a senior at East Lake High, wrote about the significance of freedom as a young adult, compared with the innocence of childhood.
