The Fresh Press of Open School

What is the Fresh Press?

The United States was founded on one of the core values of democracy - free speech. At the JeffCo Open School, we look at the world as it really is, rather than what we want it to be. The Fresh Press is another outlet to provide those exact traits.

Who are we?

The Fresh Press is a student-led newspaper based out of the Jefferson County Open School in Lakewood. Led by teachers Kelly Carswell and Dianne Bohach, we strive to provide up-to-date and relevant information for parents, students, and staff at the Open School.
