Today our students had the exciting opportunity to hear from former SCES Cub and current WDRB Producer, Kylie Pollett!
Kylie shared what itโs like to work behind the scenes at WDRB and offered valuable tips to help our Bearly Newsย team continue to grow as effective communicatorsย and active collaborators.
Students were thrilled to share their own experiences producing our school newscast and loved hearing how the skills theyโre learning now connect to real-world careers in media and storytelling.
Weโre so proud of our young journalists and thankful to Kylie for inspiring the next generation of storytellers!
