My Project

We're excited to continue building a powerful, student-led broadcasting program to bring our school to life — through live-streamed sports events, daily news updates, and creative video content throughout the year.

To make this vision a reality, we’re seeking essential professional-grade equipment that will empower our students to take full control of production, from live switching and teleprompting to field reporting and green screen editing.

Your support will help fund a wrinkle-resistant, collapsible chromakey backdrop perfect for anchoring our daily video news and digital content creation; a 32-bit float field recorder with multiple XLR mic inputs for clear, professional-level audio, whether it’s game day interviews or podcast-style voiceovers; a live video switcher that allows students to cut between multiple camera angles in real time for a polished, multi-cam sports broadcast or morning news program; and a student-friendly teleprompter system that helps anchors deliver news clearly and confidently, just like the pros.

This equipment will be used year-round by students to broadcast live sporting events to families and the community, produce video announcements and school updates, record student-led interviews, features, and creative media, and gain real-world skills in journalism, video production, and live streaming.

With your help, we’ll empower students to tell stories, build confidence, and represent our school with pride — all while gaining hands-on experience with professional tools.

Thank you for supporting the next generation of broadcasters, storytellers, and content creators!
