Six Local High School Students Receive Scholarships and Architectural Internships

VANCOUVER, November 24 -- This fall, six students from local high schools were awarded scholarships upon completion of an eight-week “Leadership Student Workshop” offered by LSW Architects. The internship consisted of one day per week in the office learning about and experiencing the architectural profession, and one day each week volunteering in the community. This year’s students were: Daron Dean from Hockinson High School, James Gaynor from Columbia River High School, Nichole Kates from Ridgefield High School, Justin Beck from Union High School and Emma Sagor from Camas High School and Andrew Willson from Kingsway High School.

Consistent with the mission of LSW Architects, the goal of the Leadership Student Workshop is to provide local high school students with an exposure to architecture and to encourage a sense of volunteerism that gives back to our communities.
