Editorial Policy

The Hat Chat is a public forum published by the students of Hatboro-Horsham High School, and funded by the Hatboro-Horsham School District as well as advertisements.
Unsigned editorials reflect the opinion of the majority of the Editorial Board, not necessarily those of the administration, faculty, or student body. Signed articles represent the opinion of the writer and do not reflect The Hat Chat as a paper.
Any student may respond to any editorial or article in letter form. The Hat Chat reserves the right to refuse any request that it deems inappropriate to its mission. It is the duty of the newspaper to correct false information in print as soon as possible.
The Hat Chat will attempt to publish all letters at the discretion of the editor(s).
