This program was established at my high school. My teacher and former football coach built the program and I was established as an Executive producer for the schools broadcasts. He left halfway through the year and I continued to keep the program alive with the help of my friends. I was able to teach the upcoming students how to do all of the shows and how to direct a sports broadcast and shoot news. One student recently saw me on a college tour and had thanked me for teaching him how to do the things he does and told me I was the reason he had found his love in life.
