About
***THE TEMPLE CITY VOICE PUBLISHES EVERY FRIDAY. THIS BLOG SITE IS UPDATED PERIODICALLY.***
The Temple City Voice is a local, community news publication that serves the city of Temple City. Our staff is composed of high school students who volunteer their time to report on news and events affecting Temple City. Students attend events and write about those events in order to better inform our community.
Also known simply as the Voice, the Temple City Voice was founded by Matthew Wong in July 2006. Wong, then a Temple City High School senior, worked with his fellow high school students to create a news publication designed to strengthen community awareness.
Since 2006, the Voice has steadily gained recognition as a community publication of Temple City. In September 2007, the Temple City Voice and the Temple City High School Junior State of America (JSA) co-sponsored a Election 2007: School Board candidates’ forum. Both JSA and the Voice co-sponsored a second candidates’ forum for the 2009 City Council election.
The goal of the Temple City Voice is to eliminate community apathy, by encouraging active participation and civic responsibility, among the residents of Temple City. Additionally, the Voice aims to raise awarness about the issues surrounding our society.
