On Monday, November 4, the Canton Tiger Media staff traveled to the University of Oklahoma to attend the Oklahoma Scholastic Media (OSM) 104th Media Monday. Canton’s Tiger Media staff won 23 awards overall, including All-Oklahoman, which is the highest honor for a yearbook. 

“Mr. Barney and I push these students all school year to turn out their best work. They get tired of it and they want to quit. Then, they win awards and beat students from much larger schools like Ada and Duncan, and they realize it was worth it. We are proud of these students and their hard work,” Meridith Barney, co-media advisor, said.

The Tiger Media staff also won highest honors, 2nd place for cover/first impression, Honorable Mention for theme development/design, and Honorable Mention for package/structure.
