Mission Statement 

The Talon Online, a production of the newspaper class of Richardson High School, was created to be a reliable news source for the student body, community and general public. News is reported through a variety of mediums to provide timely updates without bias to race, religion or social creed.

News Articles 

Content, other than opinions articles, are written to inform the general public and should remain unbiased. Staff members are expected to ask the interviewee if they are comfortable being recorded. They will also keep recordings of interviews to ensure accuracy. 

Opinions Articles 

Published editorials express the views of the Talon staff but not the views of any individual person. Signed columns published in the Talon express the writer’s personal opinion. The content and opinions of the Talon do not represent the student body, faculty, administration or the Richardson Independent School District.  

Content Removal 

Content published on this site is a historical record. Content previously published will not be deleted or altered unless it is factually inaccurate. 

Errors 

Factual and grammatical errors will be corrected in a timely fashion as soon as they are detected. If you find an error, please contact us. 

Letters 

The Talon encourages letters to the editors, but reserves the right to reject them for reasons including but not limited to lack of space, multiple letters of the same topic and personal attacks contained in the letter. The Talon will not edit content though letters may be edited for clarity, length or mechanics. Letters should be sent to room B214 or emailed to [email protected].
