Women's History Month panel held at high school in Monroe County

East Stroudsburg High School South celebrated Women's History Month Tuesday with a panel of local female leaders.

EAST STROUDSBURG, Pa. — A high school in Monroe County is celebrating Women's History Month.

East Stroudsburg High School South invited local female leaders and business owners to speak to more than 100 students.

Panelists spoke about how they were able to make a difference in their communities.

"I'm a proud girl-dad. And for my girls to have strong role models, like my wife who will be a speaker today, Michelle Vella, she's a psychologist. That impact on a young girl is incredible for the rest of their life," said Michael Healey, Teacher/Student Advisor at East Stroudsburg High School South.

Also on the panel was Newswatch 16 alum Raegan Medgie. She was part of the WNEP Team for four years, covering the Poconos before moving on to the Weather Channel, and is now a reporter in New York City.
