Should I send this supplemental reference?

Applying to College

<p>I started the school newspaper at my high school, and worked closely with one teacher throughout this process. She's known me from grade 9 up until now, and has written reference letters for me for other applications, and has always supported me.</p>

<p>The two academic references I am getting are strong, however one of the teachers does not really know me outside of the classroom. Thus I expect she will be writing a letter mostly about my attributes as a student.</p>

<p>Should I send a supplemental reference from the teacher who I have worked with for my school newspaper? I know universities usually recommend supplemental references for engineering/science students who've done research with a prof., but my situation's a bit different.</p>

<p>Ideas?</p>

<p>No school will mark you off for a supplemental rec, they may just ignore it. Usually someone preprocessed the application, so the adcoms would never see what is consider unnecessary. I think it is valid and you should go for it.</p>
