Bradley Fischer Wins Prestigious Scholarship
Third Year in a Row for Journalism Student
For the third year
in a row, a Paint Branch senior has been awarded the Washington Post’s
Young Journalist Development Program Scholarship.
Bradley Fischer was
awarded the $2,500.00 college scholarship for his work in the High School
Writing Seminar and Scholarship Program.
Mr. Fischer was
selected for this award on the basis of the story he produced in the seventh
annual program, his interest in pursuing a journalism career and his
attendance and participation in all four seminars.
The four-Saturday
seminars that Mr. Fischer attended were designed to help high school
students who are interested in journalism careers build their writing
skills. Washington Post reporters and editors served as instructors
and each participant produced a newspaper or magazine story by the end of
the seminar. Professional journalists judged the stories and selected the
scholarship winner.
Mr. Fischer is the
Sports Editor for the Mainstream, the Paint Branch school newspaper.
He has been part of the journalism program for the past two years, serving
as a staff writer his junior year. This fall, Mr. Fischer will be attending
the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri.
The past two Young
Journalist Development Program Scholarship winners, Sandeep Soman in
2005 and Jeremiah Arias in 2004, are currently studying journalism at
Columbia University, New York City, and the University of Maryland at
College Park, respectively.
Brian Woodward,
Journalism teacher, is in his third year as Mainstream Advisor. The
Mainstream has won many awards from the Columbia School of Journalism
as well as first place for its online newspaper in the Montgomery County
Media Festival in 2005.

 Dear
Paint Branch and Northeast Consortium Community:
Paint Branch High School's Student Government
Association (SGA), Key Club and the Academy of Finance have joined together
for a huge project called Hoops for Heart. Hoops for Heart raises
money for the
American Heart Association. We have decided to support this worthy
cause by having a "five on five" basketball tournament on March 16, 2006
here at Paint Branch. The final game will be played on March 17, 2006
during LAP with the winning team receiving $500.00. Admission to the
game is $2.00 at the door each day. The tournament
participants can be anyone in the Paint Branch community including teachers,
students and parents. Also, we will have many other projects on-going to
help raise funds for the American Heart Association.
We need your help. We are asking Paint Branch
parents and the local community to help us achieve our goal of raising
$10,000.00. By providing a donation (either a monetary or non-monetary
gift) you can support the Hoops for Heart campaign. Checks can be made
payable to the American Heart Association. Non-monetary gifts should be
items that can be used as door prizes or for a silent auction. Send all
gifts via U.S. mail to the attention of Dana Birdin, S.G.A. Sponsor, at
Paint Branch High School.
 We
recognize that you have many demands as a parent or friend of Paint Branch,
but we ask that you do not over look our request. Approximately 700,000
Americans will have a stroke this year; that is someone every 45 seconds.
This could be a family member, a close friend or an associate. If you
have a heart disease story of someone close to you that you would like to
share with the Paint Branch community please e-mail Angela Walker at
Stepper587@aol.com .
Help support this rewarding and educational event
so we can beat this killer disease. If you have any
questions please contact the S.G.A. sponsor Ms. Dana Birdin at (301)
989-5630.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Angela Walker and
Sean Dzierzanowski
SGA President
SGA Vice President
P.S. Everyone can help. If you have family members in other
parts of the country or the world they can send a donation over the internet
(Note: international money will automatically be converted into American
dollars).

honor and if you see her today, please say happy birthday and thank you to
