Devan Foos
Journalism Programs Adviser | Platte County High School
I have been the journalism programs adviser at PCHS since 2022, teaching Journalism 1, Photojournalism, Intro to Broadcast, Newspaper, Broadcast, and Yearbook, known collectively as Pirate Press. Our journalism programs have received honors at the city, state and national levels under my direction, including the All Missouri Award for our broadcast program and the Walsworth Gallery of Excellence for yearbook.
I studied journalism at the University of Missouri's School of Journalism, receiving both my bachelor's and master's degrees in Journalism with an emphasis in strategic communication.
I am a 2013 graduate of Platte County High School, spending my elementary and middle school years at Barry. I am thankful everyday to be a pirate again, teaching yearbook in the very classroom I was once a staff member in.
