Maple Media elective launches podcast featuring school board
Summary
Maple School District showcased a two-year-old Media elective Dec. 12, with teacher Mr. Johnson and students demonstrating equipment and announcing the program is "ready to go live" with the board featured on a student podcast.
Mr. Johnson, the Maple Media elective teacher, introduced the district's Media Department during the Dec. 12 Maple School District Board of Trustees meeting and said the department "is now ready to go live, with the board featured on their podcast." Student Regan led board members in brief remarks recorded for the program.
The presentation described the program as a two-year effort that teaches students to operate a teleprompter and produce podcasts. Mr. Johnson credited new equipment and "a generous donation from MCC" for expanding the department; Principal Christy Herstad described participation as "rewarding" for staff and students. The board did not take action; the segment was an informational presentation.
