Over 300 high school seniors participated in the 2008 Making a Difference: Great Teachers Essay Contest. Seniors write essays about the teacher who has made a difference in their life. WVIA will award a scholarship to three students from member intermediate units represented in our coverage area and invite them to be featured on our Scholastic Achievement Awards Show in May. The teachers, who receive certificates of recognition, will also be featured.
