Ki-O-T News

With nine weeks of school under our belts, our morning Broadcast is a well-oiled machine! With a green screen and a software program called Visual Communications, viewers see background and camera changes.  These talented 5th graders work hard every morning on the Ki-O-T News team to present pledges to the flags, the day's announcements, lunch menu, birthdays, and weather.  We also host special teachers and administrators to share character education in the Words of Wisdom.  Also, special students drop by to present a book review or a special piece of art they have made.  Forest Creek Elementary tunes in each morning to watch and get their day started in a good way!


Students run through the script on a teleprompter before going live.

Two students must work behind the scenes to make sure everything is perfect!

Here, you can see four co-anchors leading the Broadcast and 2nd graders on the floor waiting for their turn to say the Pledge of Allegiance.  A student on the left showcases his art.  Our Assistant Principal, Mr. Wakefield shares words of wisdom with the students.


A big thanks to our TAG teachers Deanna Jesizek and Julie Washburn and our Instructional Technology Specialist Anne Walkup for their daily help.  Jennifer Manning, on the district level, has given countless hours of expert help to ensure that our broadcast system is working.
