The meeting also highlighted the achievements of students involved in the production of football games at Byers Field, led by Mr. Tibbets. His leadership has transformed the student-run production team into a well-organized unit capable of handling complex live broadcasts, akin to professional television operations. The students were commended for their dedication and skill development, with many now possessing marketable abilities that could lead to opportunities in local media.
