Seven schools were named 2021 Crown Finalists by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association recently. Throughout the first week of December, CSPA announced the finalists in print, digital and hybrid publication categories, culminating with the yearbook finalists Friday.
More than 800 digital, newspapers, magazines and yearbooks published during the 2019-20 school year were eligible for judging. The judging panel selected 61 middle school, high school and collegiate yearbook finalists this year.
CSPA dates the awards from the year they are given. The 2021 Crown Finalists will learn in March if they won a Silver or Gold Crown. For the second year in a row, CSPA will announce winners virtually because of COVID restrictions. Congratulations to all the finalists!
