ROANE COMMUNICATIONS STUDENTS WIN CONTEST

(05/28/2008)
Roane County's award-winning communications students are getting more recognition.

Two students at Roane County High School won a national award last week in the Think Globally Report Locally contest.

Daniel Matics and Jon Bradley won the Silver Second Place award as part of a contest sponsored by the United Nations Youth Leadership Summit and the Radio and Television News Directors Foundation.

Matics and Bradley did a story on Roane people who use water wells for their water supply.

The students and their teacher, Janet Kerby, will go to New York in July to receive the award.
