“Journalistically-Talented” 8th Grader from Westfield, Indiana Takes CM Tweets to a Whole New Level
Typically we like to keep our CM Blog posts short and sweet, but not this one. Ms. Stephanie Walker has been trialling Civic Mirror this year with phenomenal success… So much so that they have accepted our offer to become Indiana’s first CM Showcase School new year.
What’s more is that, Paige Kuper, a “journalistically-talented” 8th grader (to quote Ms. Walker) has captured the students building and then running their various simulated nations in a series of Tweets. In this post we’ve collated them for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy! And great work Westfield Social Studies teachers and students.

Student Journalist: Paige Kuper
Paige was, and still is, a proud resident of the USJE and served as a senator for two years.
She enjoys finding solutions to the complex problems within the country, writing their histories, sketching and writing, and keeping the people updated through the newspaper.
She lives happily with her eccentric CM family of eight and her real family: her parents, two brothers, and puppy.
She thanks the Civic Mirror creators for this opportunity and tells her fellow citizens #USJErocks!
