Rural Point Elementary School

Moss-Everhart and Ednie’s innovative teaching idea, “Roadrunner Broadcast Center,” is focused on creating a Roadrunner News Broadcast Center at Rural Point Elementary School. To increase the sense of community and school pride, the new program will be designed completely by students. This hands-on experience will give students the opportunity to learn about script writing, reporting, camera work, sound, and lighting. This program also falls into the curriculum by incorporating Library Media and English SOLs related to media messages into the news show.
