The Wick
The Wick is Agnes Irwin’s monthly newspaper that is written, formatted, and edited by the students.

The Wick features new topics each month including various opinions, political debates, discussion-prompting survey questions, and current event pieces. The publication prides itself in its ability to connect the Agnes Irwin Upper School; it enables students to freely explore and express their passions and encourage fellow peers to share their own opinions.
