My Project

I currently teach high school English and Journalism. Next year I would like my students to experience creating and distributing a news broadcast at school. Students will use the iPad, stand and microphone to create a realistic production.

Creating an engaging news broadcast for their peers is what I am after.

Engaging students in stepping outside their comfort zones and working to create a broadcast they can be proud to show their peers is what I want to happen.

With this important equipment, we will be able to promote important events in our school, talk about the things that concern students and bring awareness on important topics.

Mrs. Ray
Grades 9-12
  • Dixon High School
  • Dixon, MO
    • More than a third of students from low‑income households

    This project will reach 100 students.
