As someone who has been part of the editorial board interviews with the candidates I couldn't agree more with Nick. This is one dedicated, mature and focused young people. And what a great opportunity for them. If they do persue a career in journalism or television in college this experience will put them lightyears ahead of their peers. Not only did they show up on that snow day, but they did so with smiles on their face and Dunkin Donuts coffee and munchkins to boot. One of these stalwart students even took the time to put on a suit coat, shirt and tie! If anyone out there is grumbling about the apathy and lethargy of teens, they need only think about this NHS group Bravo.

Thanks very much for these kind words. I have been quite impressed with the Juniors and Seniors in the video production courses this year. They have shown an impressive amount of dedication. They have learned quite a bit as well. This has been an excellent partnership. I also must praise Marshall Derry, the Director of the Nashua Technology Center, the Nashua School District, and Principals Jennifer Seusing and David Ryan for seeing the value in this partnership and fully supporting it. Thanks also to the Nashua Telegraph Editorial Board members for understanding what they were getting into when they agreed to conduct the interviews in a high school TV Studio. You all have been kind and gracious to our student crew members. All in all, extraordinarily memorable for all, including the candidates.

As a member of the Telegraph's editorial board, I want to echo Nick and Stacy's praise for the students and their instructor -- they have demonstrated dedication, professionalism and talent at each interview.
