About Us

The Pondercast Club aims to inform and engage the Arlington High School community through a weekly broadcast announcements/news program. The club gathers, records, and presents various happenings and issues involving Spy Ponders to the AHS student body and staff.

Pondercast benefits students involved in the production, those who participate, and viewers. Students produce the show in various locations throughout the new high school; highlighting the features and learning opportunities they present. The club also fosters civic engagement by showing and discussing various school-related activities. These include clubs, sports, arts, student government, and more. This is a news program for the community, by the community– and with the new school to show off–most certainly in the community!

Student producers learn, apply research, outreach, and interviewing skills, and hone their abilities to summarize key information and present it for the visual/audio media in an engaging and meaningful way. Pondercast fulfills student desire to explore their school community while fulfilling a growing interest in storytelling and video production.
