ABC TV Anchor Sade Baderinwa Visits with the Students of ILCS

Ms. Sade Baderinwa - Get Reel creator and News Anchor for WABC-TV - has again partnered with Disney, Lincoln Center Institute and New York Women in Film & Television for the project.

Professionals in the field of Television and Film share their expertise and they also remind and encourage students to ‘Get Reel’ about the dedication and sacrifices they’ll need to make in order to pursue their dreams. Students get on the ‘inside track’ advice from pros who know - and exposure to a whole new world of possibilities! ‘Get Reel’ has proven to be a true success!

The International Leadership Charter School was selected to take part in this program and we are very excited about this opportunity for our students.

Our students were required to submit an essay explaining who they are and why they should beaccepted into the program.  As part of the requirement, they must do a full day of community service - owning up to Ms. Baderinwa’s challenge - “You must give before you get!”  All of our juniors and seniors are required to complete a total of 200 hours of community service as part of their graduation requirement.
