The Rocket Times is Catholic High's award winning student newspaper. The staff is comprised of talented writers and photographers from the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades. These individuals meet once a week to brainstorm, write articles, discuss journalism, and listen to guest speakers. Students who work on the Rocket Times receive academic credit for their study of journalism. More recently, the Times has undergone a change to a magazine format, allowing Mrs. Gowen to expand the class's scope to commentary, interviews, and reviews. After all the articles are written and all the photographs are taken, the editor-in-chief and his assistant editor spend countless hours assembling and printing each issue of the Rocket Times, which is published seven times each year. Mrs. Gowen oversees the meetings and assists staff members in their journalistic pursuits. The technical advisor, Mrs. Jodi Shull, oversees the production of each issue.
