A self-proclaimed political junkie who hopes to help people one day, junior Donovan Frymoyer received a rare opportunity to spend the day shadowing PA State Senator Judy Schwank earlier this month. During an all-encompassing day, Donovan spent time with Senator Schwank's communications director and chief of staff, toured the PA Capitol and attended a press conference before being introduced to the PA Senate in their chambers. Hoping to one day be president of the United States, Donovan would like to attend college at American University to study political science. Principal Tom Campbell was thrilled with Donovan taking his own initiative to contact the Senator's office and ask for the chance to shadow her. "We're placing a new emphasis on our internship program at the high school, and Donovan's experience is the type of opportunity we're looking to provide on a daily basis for high school students who are interested in learning more about a profession before graduation." Local business leaders who are looking for a student intern throughout the school year -- or students who are looking to intern at a local business throughout the school year -- can contact Mr. Mark Ricketts to learn more about Exeter's internship program by email at maricketts@nullexetersd.org or by phone at 610-816-2471.

Please help us congratulate Saishree Mupparaju, a senior, for being recognized as the first runner-up in the Berks County Outstanding Young Woman scholarship program, which was held this past weekend at Kutztown Area Middle School. Saishree placed first in the Scholarship & Achievement and Interview categories, and received $150 for winning each, as well as a $1,500 scholarship for her overall placement. Saishree prepared for the program over the past seven weeks and was encouraged to do so by friends who had participated in the past. "I'm really glad that I took a shot because I've met some of the most amazing young women and they've become some of my closest friends now. I am so glad I was able to make those connections," she said.

Although Saishree hasn't yet decided where she'd like to attend college after graduation, she plans to use her scholarship money to help further her education in technology and law. To read more about her and the competition, please visit https://www.berksoyw.com. Congratulations Saishree!
