Parents will be proud of the students. Let the students carry the ball for awhile. Let them show what they can do instead of relying on adults all the time. Students are recognized for making positive decisions. Students express their view points in terms local youth understand.
Preparation is the key.
Students and teachers develop a two day video shoot schedule that includes music from the school band, athletes, cheerleaders and students in extra-curricular activities. Students are also interviewed in hallways, the lunchroom and in designated classes. We will teach them how to log footage for editing. We will edit their footage on our system. Students are accompanied by a drug prevention author and a video professional.
