Local Tribune writer recognized by OSBA and Career Center


 

Coshocton County JVS School Board President Tad Johnson presents Coshocton Tribune staff writer Leonard Hayhurst with a board resolution recognizing him as a 2011 OSBA Media Honor Roll member.   Hayhurst was nominated for his fair and balanced coverage of career-technical secondary education in Coshocton County.

On behalf of his work in promoting the Coshocton County Career Center, the Ohio School Boards Association has named local Coshocton Tribune staff writer Leonard Hayhurst to their 2011 Media Honor Roll.  The distinction is reserved for members of the media who have covered school district news in a fair and balanced manner.

Career Center Public Relations Coordinator Ginger Reiss acknowledged, “Leonard has done a wonderful job profiling our newest program, Early Childhood Education, in a feature he wrote this fall.  He’s consistently does a great job covering Career Center community events such as our annual open house and some of our career development initiatives; I’m thrilled that OSBA has chosen to recognize him.”

Hayhurst was presented with a school board resolution from Coshocton County Joint Vocational School Board President Tad Johnson, as well as a certificate from Ohio School Boards Association and a copy of their monthly journal, Journal, in which his name is listed as a recipient of the honor.

“We express our appreciation for your balanced and accurate approach to sharing with this community both the challenges facing our schools and the successes achieved by our staff and students,” read Superintendent Debbie Kapp-Salupo from a board resolution presented to Hayhurst.
