My Project

Our first ever CoyoTV News Crew, composed of enthusiastic 4th and 5th graders with instruction by Mrs. Lack, will embark on an exciting journey of journalism and communication. From crafting scripts to conducting interviews with teachers and fellow students, they'll immerse themselves in every aspect of production. Their ultimate goal? To create a captivating broadcast that reaches every classroom in our school.

As a Title I institution serving grades K through 5, fostering community engagement is paramount.

The news crew isn't just about sharing information; it's a vehicle for strengthening connections and facilitating dialogue within our coyote community. With regular features on school news, insightful guest speakers, and entertaining segments, our broadcasts promise to inform, entertain, and inspire.

But it's not just about the final product. Through this initiative, our students will develop invaluable journalism and speaking skills, all while experiencing the joy of collaborative creation. Help us get iPads with cases, microphones, tripods, lighting, and a MacBook to make our "on air" dreams a reality!

Your support is instrumental in empowering these budding journalists and communicators. Thank you for being a vital part of their journey. Your generosity is truly appreciated!
