Furman FOCUSES On and Off the Mat🎥
Sending a huge THANK YOU to D4wrestlingpics for providing this incredible opportunity to senior Communications manager, Zoe Furman!
Here is a statement from D4wrestlingpics:
Huge shoutout to Zoe on being an outstanding wrestler and an even more impressive young professional in the making.
Zoe is planning to attend Edinboro University, where she will major in Communications with a concentration in Digital Media while continuing her wrestling career. During her Wrestler of the Week interview, she shared her passion for digital media, and we mentioned that maybe one day she would be on staff with D4wrestlingpics.
She didn’t just talk about it — she made it happen.
Zoe reached out and asked if she could shoot for us at the boys district tournament. We handed her a camera, and she delivered. Her captures from Districts speak for themselves — sharp eye, great timing, true understanding of the sport.
From dominating on the mat to stepping behind the lens, Zoe continues to raise the bar. Anytime Zoe wants to shoot for D4wrestlingpics, she has a place with us.
We are incredibly proud of her drive, initiative, and vision for her future. The wrestling world hasn’t seen the last of Zoe Furman — not on the mat, and not behind the camera.

Real World Application -
Congratulations to senior Communications manager, Camden Dalrymple, who is working on a new project through his Strategic Communications/Marketing Independent Study. In an ever growing and evolving field, Camden is exploring potential areas of interest in content creation, design, digital storytelling, and marketing strategies. He had an initial zoom meeting today with Megan Rath, famous for her completion of the Seven Summits challenge. In the upcoming weeks, Camden will be responsible for creating and maintaining her social media presence while helping promote her future climbs and sponsors.
Congratulations and good luck, Camden!

Red Raider Foundation Awards Grants -
Today, the Red Raider Foundation provided funding to Mrs. Tressler and Mr. Newcomer to help support the esports program, 3D printer upgrades, and purchase of a book vending machine. The faculty recipients applied for the grants, citing various ways the money would benefit students in curricular and extra-curricular areas. A luncheon was provided by the Seasons under the direction of Mrs. Amanda Snyder.
Not sure what the Red Raider Foundation is? Be on the lookout for an updated and interactive social media presence that will serve to highlight the organization’s vision to support excellence in education. With core values of community and connection, foundation members strive to raise awareness and funding to enhance and inspire student learning and development.
Congratulations to our funded faculty! We look forward to sharing these and further opportunities with our donors, recipients, volunteers, and community.

TSA Regional Competition
From co-advisor, Mr. Wertman…
Montgomery had an incredible day at the Region 7 TSA conference at the Muncy Jr/Sr HS. TSA has been, and continues to develop leadership skills in multiple areas of STEAM. We had several TSA members not in the picture because of other obligations and it’s still incredible a school as small as Montgomery has this much participation.

Congratulations, Brandt!
