Barbara Morgan, Neillsville, is the recipient of the Marshfield News-Herald scholarship for the annual Newspapers in Education Workshop in Madison.

A reading instructor at Riverview School of Sunburst Youth Homes, Morgan had used newspapers in her classroom on a regular basis. In her application, Morgan said she found newspapers can motivate the most reluctant readers in her class.

Beginning Monday at the University of Wisconsin, the "Press in the School Curriculum" workshop is designed to encourage use of newspapers in the teaching and learning processes. The workshop concludes July 1. (Unnecessary info edited)
