Feb. 14 Corrections

The Accolade regrets the following errors from the Feb. 14 issue:
In a page 7 News article titled, “Teacher codes Apple app for school bell schedule,” computer science teacher Jeremy
Wai’s quote explaining why the app is not available for Android phones should have been written as, “Android apps are coded in JAVA. Whereas, iOS apps are coded in swift, so I could not make the app available to Android users yet.”
In a page 15 Sports article titled, “What’s the cheapest sport for SH students?” the infographic at the bottom of the story should have included a source to show that the information for the least expensive sports on campus was based on interviews with three student athletes, two coaches and athletics director Jon Caffrey.
In a page 16 Sports article titled, “78th minute goal pushes boys soccer into CIF quarterfinals,” the headline and story should have stated instead that the team advanced to the second round of CIF.

About the Contributor
Tommy Li, Adviser
First hired as The Accolade adviser in the 2001-2002 school year, Tommy Li oversaw the print newspaper production until the 2008-2009 school year, when he took a break for family reasons. During that time, Li guided his staff to win first place in local and state journalism writeoff contests as well as the Best High School Newspaper contest sponsored by the Los Angeles Times. He also advised his staffs to earn national recognition with a Silver Crown from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association and a Pacemaker from the National Scholastic Press Association. Li returned as journalism teacher and adviser in the 2016-2017 school year. Since then, The Accolade has won the Best High School newspaper award from the Los Angeles Press Club's Southern California Journalism Awards contest two years in a row (that contest was not around when Li was the adviser the first time around). As recently as the 2019-2020 school year, Li guided the program back to national prominence, earning The Accolade's second Silver Crown award. Before becoming a teacher, Li earned his bachelor's degree in print journalism and English from the University of Southern California; upon graduation, he worked as a reporter for San Bernardino's The Sun newspaper for nearly five years and a freelance contract writer for the Los Angeles Times for another four years. Besides "Citizen Kane," Li's favorite movie that he shows to his beginning journalism students is "White Squall," from which he gets his motto, "Where we go one, we go all."
