Comment: “I worked on both the school newspaper and on the morning announcements. The Communications Central program was a great way to learn a lot of skills that have been practical for me since leaving high school. I’ve worked at two radio stations and as a teacher, both of which were helped by my time on the announcements. My time writing for the newspaper helped me run a writing competition in the country of Georgia and promote a school newspaper”

Computer Magnet Major: Communications Central
Undergraduate School(s) Attended: Metro State College
Undergraduate Degree In: Theatre
Description of Current Position: Manage and operate all technical elements for Kent Denver’s Student Center for the Arts, which consists of three performance spaces, a small concert hall and a reception hall. Design and build all technical elements for major KDS productions, concerts and special events. Teach one section of Technical Theatre and run an after school tech theatre program.
Comment: “Communications Central was a creative outlet for me. Whether it was a film project, morning announcements or newspaper, out-of-the-box thinking was always required and appreciated.
CC also offered a very different form of troubleshooting, which employed both a broad view of an entire project and minute attention to detail to get the project done.
My CC experience is one of the driving reasons for why I do what I do. Spamp is on my Mt. Rushmore of great and influential teachers.”
