Congratulations to Mrs. Meschkat and Canyon Network News (CNN) Team. They recently received the West Regional Broadcast Excellence award from Student Television Network in the category of School Announcements Show. Mrs. Meschkat says, "After taking over this program just two years ago, it is a huge honor to be chosen for this award. I have encouraged my students to demand more of themselves while still having a fun and engaging class and news show. It is so exciting to see all this hard work pay off and to be recognized for the changes we are making to this career pathway and program."

Charles Deuschle Video Productions Win at Ghetto Films!
Golden Valley High School video students Kylin Finley and Andrew Oh had the premiere of their short films recently in Los Angeles, CA. Kylin and Andrew were selected to be a part of the Ghetto Film School, a very selective program funded by 21st Century Fox studios. 200 students were narrowed down to 30, and Kylin and Andrew were both selected. Out of the 30, only ten were chosen to have their original short films screened.
Kylin and Andrew will be a part of the program for 30 months and will conclude their studies with a film thesis project that will be filmed overseas. What is impressive is that these two young men juggle their high school studies during the week and do all of their film school work on weekends and summers. "I wanted to share the excellent work these two students are doing on behalf of Golden Valley Video Production," said instructor Charles Deuschle.

Photography Career Pathway
Hart High School
Instructor Mr. VincentAdvanced photography student, Max Sehic, captured these outstanding photos of the solar eclipse. Max is a student at Hart High School in Mr. Vincent's Advanced Photography class.
Max, his father, and a friend drove 15 hours to Weiser, Idaho to see the full solar eclipse on August 21, 2017. They found a large open field and parked for the night to sleep in his father's truck. The next morning, they set up a place to view and photograph the eclipse. After capturing the images, they packed up and drove 15 hours back home. Max prepared himself for these images weeks in advance by looking up the path of the eclipse using Google Maps to find the best viewing area. They scheduled the trip and ordered special equipment so his camera would be able to view the eclipse without damaging any of the electronics. Max said that the experience was very exciting and he thought that the most interesting part about the solar eclipse was the change in temperature when the sun was fully covered.
