James,

Thank you for your installment of "teaching through doing"-not only have
your students been able to hone their journalistic skills by covering an
important event, but they've also had the opportunity to experience history
while contributing to the civil rights narrative of our country. 

Proud of you!

Debbie

Thank you, one and all, for your kind words and support for our students
this past weekend as we covered the 50th Anniversary of Selma.  It was an
incredible experience for the students - both professionally and personally.


 

NBC used our footage in their newscast and on their website.  In addition,
they posted two stories from one our students: Candace King.
