NFA West Campus Scholar Shadows Reporter as Part of Internship Program

Lawrence Coleman, grade 10, a student at Newburgh Free Academy, West Campus, shadowed Leonard Sparks, a reporter for the Times Herald Record as part of the internship program. Part of the day included a trip to the court house, touring remnants of a house fire and an interview with the homeowners, and a press conference for The Newburgh Basics at Cornerstone Family Health.

“It’s been interesting. It has definitely made me more interested in being a reporter.” Lawrence Coleman
