At Hope High School, Mrs. Ewing has jumped in head-first to make Digital Cinema an incredible course for our students. Magnet has huge plans for a full-scale Bobcat Broadcasting program. Until the studio is installed, Mrs. Ewing's classes are preparing for their upcoming production roles by launching an all new student newspaper! Students will take turns editing, filming, writing, interviewing and reporting news from their own perspectives, all while using various digital and print mediums. More information will be released soon about this awesome project. #GoBobcats #ALLIN #HopeForTheFuture
