At the start of every morning at Maplewood Richmond Heights Elementary School, a small group of students welcome everyone to school in a very unique way. The broadcast students of Dan Lyons’ class, write, produce and broadcast their own daily news segment. They feature daily activities, announcements, lunch menus and birthdays during their brief program.
“They are so passionate and excited to get ready for this every morning. Each student plays a different role. One day, one student may be a scriptwriter, a cameraman, an anchor or the producer. I think each and every one of them will go on to explore news and broadcasting at some point in the future” says Lyons.
