Wofford hired as Vickery Intern

The internship was started in honor of the Vickery family, longtime owners of the newspaper.

“The Vickery intern program has been great for the newspaper,” Dodd said. “Hopefully, it has also proven valuable for the interns, who get to experience journalism first-hand instead of just from a book. There is no better way to learn than through experience.”

Wofford is the daughter of Rob and Autumn Wofford and granddaughter of Bob and Ann Wofford.

At SHS, she is part of the tennis team, Student Council, Culture Club, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and National Honors Society.

Her other interests include working out at the gym, playing pickleball, being an involved member of First Baptist Church, working with younger kids, and listening to 90’s music.

Previous Vickery interns include Heather Schaller, Dina Williams, Jonathan Bertz, Drew Carmier, Lindsey Gott, Rachel Greene, Janeen Hankinson, Katie Hunt, Seth Gott, Rebecca Soard, Liz Snyder, Rachelle Hayes, Emily Moser, Tucker Conley, Alexis Crocker, Emily Brown, Carson Mowery, Cory Gamblin, Anita Conway, Malia Terrill, Brecklyn Holtz, Denise Stoner, Olivia Wisdom, and Kinsey Owen.

Duties of the intern include writing and editing news stories, a weekly school column, compiling the calendar section of the newspaper, photography, and some website work.
