I'M ATHERTON HIGH SCHOOL CORRESPONDENT EDWIN SABIC.
MADY SEARCY KNEW SHE WANTED TO TEACH ALL THE WAY BACK IN KINDERGARTEN AT TRUNNELL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
MADY WAS ALSO ONE OF THE FIRST ACADEMIES OF LOUISVILLE TEACHING PATHWAY STUDENTS AT PRP HIGH SCHOOL, AND IS NOW A FIRST YEAR TEACHER AT EISENHOWER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
WHAT DO WE DO AFTER WE READ THIS BOOK? TAKE A QUIZ.
I AM MADY SEARCY, AND I AM A THIRD GRADE TEACHER AT EISENHOWER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
IT SAYS PICTURES BY JARED LEE.
WHAT'S THE NAME OF THAT? ILLUSTRATOR.
I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE A TEACHER WHEN I LOOK AT MY, LIKE, KINDERGARTEN, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO WHEN YOU GROW UP? I WANTED TO BE A TEACHER.
BEFORE I TAUGHT HERE AT EISENHOWER ELEMENTARY, I ACTUALLY TAUGHT AT TRUNNELL ELEMENTARY.
THE KIDS WILL PACE THE WORK TOGETHER.
MADY WAS ONE OF MY FORMER STUDENTS.
WHEN I GOT TO PRP, THEY INTRODUCED THE TEACHING AND LEARNING PATHWAY, SO I WAS ONE OF THE FIRST TO GO THROUGH THE ENTIRE PROGRAM.
I FURTHERED MY EDUCATION AT INDIANA UNIVERSITY, SOUTHEAST, DID MY STUDENT TEACHING HERE AT EISENHOWER, AND I HAD EXPRESSED THAT IF THE OPPORTUNITY AROSE FOR ME TO GET AN OPPORTUNITY HERE THAT I WOULD LOVE TO.
WE HAVE SO MANY FRIENDS THAT HAVE ALREADY MET THEIR GOALS, AND I'M VERY, VERY PROUD OF YOU.
AND I ENDED UP GETTING TO TAKE THE CLASSROOM THAT I STUDENT TAUGHT IN.
FROM THE MENTOR THAT I HAD WHEN I WAS EIGHT AND NINE YEARS OLD.
SO IT WAS COMPLETELY FULL CIRCLE.
OF COURSE, ALL FIRST YEAR TEACHERS BRING A CERTAIN ENERGY TO A SCHOOL.
WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TURNOVER IN THIS BUILDING.
SO MADY'S BEEN THE FIRST BRAND NEW TEACHER THAT WE'VE HAD IN A LONG TIME, AND IT'S JUST BEEN REALLY AWESOME TO HAVE HER LIGHT AND HER PASSION FOR TEACHING.
SO WE'RE GONNA CLAP REALLY LOUD REAL QUICK.
SHE IS KIND TO EVERYONE, AND SHE HELP EVERYONE DO STUFF.
SHE IS GRATEFUL FOR EVERYTHING WE DO FOR HER.
JCPS IS JUST AWESOME, AND ALTHOUGH YOU MAY SEE THINGS ON THE MEDIA THAT SAY OTHERWISE, WHEN YOU REALLY COME INTO THE BUILDINGS, AT THE END OF THE DAY, I KNOW A TEACHER'S IN JCPS LOVE THEIR KIDS AND LOVE THEIR JOB, AND THAT'S WHERE I WANTED TO PUT MYSELF INTO.
MADY WAS ALWAYS A NATURAL CHEERLEADER.
SHE WAS ALWAYS THAT STUDENT THAT YOU LOVE TO TEACH.
SHE WAS WILLING TO TRY NEW THINGS.
SHE CARES ABOUT HER COMMUNITY, AND SHE REALLY WANTS EVERYBODY TO FEEL WELCOME AND LOVE WHEN THEY COME INTO THAT CLASSROOM.
WHEN I WAS LITTLE, MY MOM SAID I ALWAYS HAD A DESIRE TO HELP.
I ALWAYS HAD A DESIRE TO BE THE MOTHERLY FIGURE, AND THAT'S REALLY MY BIGGEST MOTIVATOR, IS THAT, AT THE END OF THE DAY, I AM HERE TO TEACH THOSE KIDS CONTENT, BUT MORE SO THAN EVER, I WANT THOSE KIDS TO LEAVE ME, AND KNOW MS. SEARCY CARED ABOUT ME.
MANUAL HIGH SCHOOL ALUM, YARED NUGUSE, AND OLYMPIC BRONZE MEDALIST USED TO RUN IN THE JCPS CROSS COUNTRY CHAMPIONSHIPS WHEN HE WAS A STUDENT.
NOW, THAT SAME RACE IS NAMED AFTER HIM.
RAVENS, RAVENS, WHAT'S OUR CRY? [CHEERING] ONE, TWO, THREE, BRUINS! WHILE THE RUNNERS WERE GETTING READY TO EARN THE TITLE OF BEST CROSS COUNTRY TEAM IN JCPS...
OUR TEAM GETS IT DONE! ONE, TWO, THREE.
MALE! THERE WAS ONE PERSON WHO WAS ALREADY THE VIP.
I AM JUST A PROFESSIONAL RUNNER.
MOST OF THE TIME, IT'S A NORMAL GUY, WHO HAS TO RUN A LITTLE FASTER THAN MOST.
YARED NUGUSE IS AN OLYMPIC BRONZE MEDALIST IN THE 1,500 METER RACE, EARNING HIS FIRST OLYMPIC MEDAL IN PARIS LAST SUMMER.
HE WAS AT THE JCPS CROSS COUNTRY CHAMPIONSHIP.
THE SAME RACE HE RAN IN WHEN HE ATTENDED MANUAL, THE SAME RACE, WHICH NOW BEARS HIS NAME.
I WAS VERY HONORED WHEN THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE GOING TO DO THAT LAST YEAR.
WHEN I STARTED RUNNING, ESPECIALLY IN HIGH SCHOOL, IT WAS NEVER, LIKE, I'M GONNA BE THE BEST.
I'M GONNA GET THIS CROSS COUNTRY MEET NAMED AFTER ME.
IT WAS KIND OF JUST, YOU KNOW, DOING IT FOR THE FUN OF DOING IT.
HE ACTUALLY FLEW IN LATE LAST NIGHT.
HE'S LEAVING FIRST THING TOMORROW MORNING, BUT HE REALLY WANTED TO BE HERE.
AND I THINK HAVING THIS MEAT NAMED AFTER HIM MEANS A LOT TO HIM.
FOR THE KIDS, THEY LOVE THE FACT THAT THEY'RE RUNNING ON THE SAME COURSE WHERE NUGUSE MADE A NAME FOR HIMSELF.
I THINK IT'S REALLY SPECIAL TO KNOW THAT, LIKE, AN OLYMPIAN
[00:05:03]
LIKE THAT WAS JUST LIKE US, AND WE COULD POTENTIALLY JUST FEEL, LIKE, JUST LIKE HIM, RUNNING THIS RACE AND POTENTIALLY BEING THE OLYMPICS ONE DAY.IT WAS REALLY COOL, 'CAUSE IT CAME FROM OUR SCHOOL, SO TO, LIKE, RUN THE SAME COURSE HE DID, AND, LIKE, BE COACHED BY THE SAME PERSON HE WAS.
IT'S JUST, LIKE, A REALLY COOL EXPERIENCE.
IT JUST GIVES ME, LIKE, A LOT OF, LIKE, MOTIVATION AND, LIKE, INSPIRATION.
FROM MALE HIGH SCHOOL AS THE 2025 YARED NUGUSE JCPS CHAMPIONSHIP WRAPPED UP, COULD THE NEXT YARED NUGUSE BE PARTICIPATING IN THE SAME MEET? I GUESS IT DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU MEAN, BUT, YOU KNOW, IF THEY'RE JUST KIDS GOING OUT HERE TO HAVE FUN, HOPEFULLY A LOT OF THEM.
WE MIGHT NOT FIND THE NEXT YARED NUGUSE, BUT WE'LL FIND THE NEXT SOMEBODY OUT HERE.
DISCOVER HOW VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL'S MSD'S COFFEE CART IS BREWING SUCCESS.
BECAUSE IT'S THE BEST AND CHILLING, AND IT'S A GREAT COFFEE CART IN THE WHOLE WORLD, AND I REALLY LOVE IT.
OUR COFFEE CART IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR STUDENTS TO NOT ONLY WORK ON LIFE SKILLS AND WORK SKILLS, BUT TO WORK ON THEIR SOCIAL SKILLS AS WELL.
SO WE HAVE OUR STUDENTS COME IN THE MORNING AND HELP US BREW THE COFFEE.
WE TAKE IT AROUND ON CARTS TO THE TEACHERS WHO HAVE PLACED PRE ORDERS ONLINE, AND THEN WE TAKE IT UP TO THEIR CLASSROOM.
THE STUDENTS KNOCK ON THE DOOR, THEY ENGAGE WITH THE STUDENTS WHO ANSWER THE DOOR OR THE TEACHER, WHICH GIVES THEM OPPORTUNITY TO PRACTICE THOSE SOCIAL SKILLS, AND THEN THEY'RE ACTUALLY THE ONES THAT ARE COUNTING THE MONEY AS WELL.
SO, THEY'RE GETTING A LOT OF THE WORK BASED LEARNING THROUGH THAT, BUT THEN THEY'RE ALSO GETTING SOCIAL SKILLS, AND THEN WE'RE MAKING MONEY FOR OUR CLASSROOM.
WE JUST DO, LIKE, MONDAYS, WEDNESDAYS, AND FRIDAYS OF A COFFEE CART.
AND THIS COFFEE CART MAKES ME CALM DOWN, AND IT'S GREAT IN THE MORNING, WHICH IS PRETTY GOOD JOB FOR HAVING THE COFFEE CART DIXIE HIGHWAY IS GREAT WITH THEIR SUPPORT.
WE REACHED OUT TO HEINE BROTHERS.
THEY DONATE THE COFFEE GROUNDS, AND THEN PANERA DONATES PASTRIES ON FRIDAY, AND THERE'S A KRISPY KREME DONATION, AS WELL, FROM THE KRISPY KREME DOWN ON BARTSTOWN ROAD, SO, REALLY, JUST A LOT OF COMMUNITY SUPPORT.
THEY'RE HAPPY ABOUT THE COFFEE CART.
THROUGH COFFEE CART, THE STUDENTS ARE GAINING OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN THOSE JOB SKILLS.
THINGS THAT MAKE THEM MORE MARKETABLE UPON GRADUATION, OUR GOAL IS TO FOSTER INDEPENDENCE WITH OUR KIDS.
WE WANT THEM TO NOT ONLY ATTAIN THAT POST SECONDARY READINESS, BUT TO TRULY BE READY TO OPERATE IN THE REAL WORLD, I'M GONNA ENJOY THE HAPPINESS, GRATEFUL HELP TO LEARN ABOUT IT, AND PUT THE MUG IN THE COFFEE, AND TAKE IT TO YOUR TEACHERS, AND THEY SAY, HOW MUCH THEY WEREN'T FROM IT.
THEIR FUTURES ARE GONNA LOOK VERY DIFFERENT, BUT IF WE CAN TEACH THEM SKILLS THAT ARE GONNA MAKE THEM JUST FEEL GOOD ABOUT THEMSELVES, AND JUST KNOW THAT THEY CAN CONQUER ANYTHING, IF THEY PUT THEIR MIND TO IT, I THINK THAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT THING.
FLASH DADS ENERGIZE THE HALLS OF MIDDLETOWN ELEMENTARY AS DOZENS OF COMMUNITY MEMBER SURPRISE STUDENTS WITH CHEERS, HIGH FIVES, AND ENCOURAGEMENT.
YOU KNOW, WE'VE BEEN DOING I BEEN DOING THIS NOW FOR, LIKE, UH, THREE, MAYBE FOUR YEARS, AND EVERY YEAR, IS, YOU KNOW, GOT BETTER AND BETTER AND BETTER, AND IT'S SORT OF EXCITING TO SEE THE KIDS SMILE AND CHEER THEM ON, YOU KNOW, IT MAKES, UH, MAKES A WONDERFUL DAY.
SO WHAT HAPPENS IS THEY COME OFF THE BUS, AND WE THERE WITH BIG SMILES, AND BIG HIGH FIVES, SAYING, HAVE A GOOD DAY, AND THINGS LIKE THAT, JUST TO SET THE TONE AND SET THE PACE OF THE DAY, BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES, KIDS GET OFF THE BUS, WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE COMING FROM, YOU KNOW? SO IF THEY'RE COMING IN, WE WANT TO START OFF TODAY WITH POSITIVITY, AND THAT'S WHAT WE DO.
THAT'S WHAT FLASH HAS US HERE FOR.
YOU KNOW, WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE SUPPORT THE KIDS.
I WANT TO MAKE THE KIDS KNOW THAT, YOU KNOW, THAT WE ARE THERE FOR THEM.
IT'S THE BEST FEELING IN THE WORLD.
IT'S THE BEST FEELING IN THE WORLD.
YOU KNOW, WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL, WE NEVER HAD ANYTHING LIKE THIS.
I MEAN, SO SEEING THAT AND SEEING THE KIDS.
AND HOW THEIR REACTION, IT JUST HELPS US TO GIVE YOU GOLD EVEN MORE.
I KNOW HOW IT FEELS TO GET OFF THE BUS, OR COME TO SCHOOL WHEN YOU GOT A LOT GOING ON.
SO WHEN YOU SEE MEN IN THE COMMUNITY, BUT MAYBE YOU DON'T SEE AS OFTEN, GIVING YOU FIVES AND TELLING YOU AND ENCOURAGE YOU BEFORE YOUR DAY, IT MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE IT MAKES ME FEEL INCREDIBLE.
SO I KNOW IT MAKES THE KIDS FEEL INCREDIBLE.
CORRESPONDENT MILES DAVIS TAKES US BEHIND THE SCENES AT ATHERTON ON AIR.
EVERY DAY, A NEW EPISODE OF ATHERTON ON AIR IS AVAILABLE TO WATCH DURING FIRST PERIOD.
THE SHOW IS A WAY THAT STUDENTS RECEIVE ANNOUNCEMENTS ABOUT CLUBS AND SPORTS.
ATHERTON STUDENTS AND STAFF ALSO APPEAR IN INTERVIEWS.
BUT WHERE DOES THIS SHOW COME FROM? WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO HAVE A FULL EPISODE READY FOR EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THE WEEK? TODAY, ATHERTON ON AIR TAKES YOU BEHIND THE SCENES TO THE ADVANCED STUDIO PRODUCTION CLASS.
ADVANCED STUDIO PRODUCTION IS THE HIGHEST LEVEL VIDEO CLASS IN THE MEDIA ARTS PATHWAY.
DURING THE BEGINNING OF THE SCHOOL YEAR, THE CLASS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PRODUCING ATHERTON ON AIR.
THE TWO DIFFERENT PERIODS ARE DIVIDED INTO TEAMS, WHICH EACH TEAM CONTAINING VARIOUS ROLES.
PRODUCERS WORK ON A FULL SCRIPT FOR AN EPISODE, ANCHORS AND CAMERA OPERATORS FILM CONTENT, AND AN EDITOR PUTS IT ALL TOGETHER BEFORE THE EPISODE IS SUBMITTED TO BOROS FOR PUBLICATION TO THE ATHERTON MEDIA YOUTUBE CHANNEL.
[00:10:01]
COLLABORATION IS KEY IF AN EPISODE IS TO BE FINISHED ON TIME.MR. BOROS IS THE TEACHER FOR THE ADVANCED STUDIO PRODUCTION CLASS.
THE BEST PART ABOUT THE CLASS AND ATHERTON ON AIR IS THAT IT'S 99.9% STUDENT RUN.
SO STUDENTS ARE COMING UP WITH STORY IDEAS, THEY'RE SHOOTING, THEY'RE EDITING.
YOU KNOW, I'M BASICALLY JUST THERE IN CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG.
SO, I GIVE SOME ADVICE SOMETIMES, AND JUST KIND OF HELP OUT, BUT THE WHOLE THING THAT YOU SEE, LIKE I SAID, IT IS STUDENT, UH, PRODUCED, STUDENT, UH, WRITTEN, STUDENT SHOT, STUDENT EDITED, IT'S, UH, REALLY EVERYTHING THAT THE STUDENTS WANT TO DO.
SO IT'S REALLY GREAT TO WATCH THAT WHOLE PROCESS COME TOGETHER.
BORO'S CLASSROOM IS FULL OF INFORMATION THAT IS CRUCIAL FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ATHERTON ON AIR.
GIANT NOTE CARDS HUNG ON A WALL DETAIL.
WHO'S FILLING EACH ROLE FOR AN EPISODE, AND WHAT A SEGMENTS WILL BE AIRED.
A COMPLETE LIST OF BIRTHDAYS IS AVAILABLE AS WELL.
A LOT OF WORK GOES INTO PRODUCING EACH EPISODE OF THE SHOW.
AND EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT ON THE AOA TEAM.
THERE'S ALWAYS A CHANCE YOU COULD BE INTERVIEWED AND APPEAR ON THE SHOW.
HAVING FUN IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART FOR THE KIDS ON THE TENNIS TEAM AT KAMMERER MIDDLE SCHOOL.
WHAT? FIVE'S A NUMBER TO BEAT.
I AM THE HEAD COACH FOR KAMMERER TENNIS.
FIVE YEARS AGO, AFTER COVID, THE ATHLETIC DIRECTOR CAME TO ME, AND SHE KNEW I HAD COACHED BASKETBALL AND SOFTBALL BEFORE AT KAMMERER MIDDLE SCHOOL, AND THEY REALLY NEEDED SOMEBODY TO STEP UP FOR THE TENNIS COACH POSITION.
AND SO, OF COURSE, I JUMPED ON IT, AND I HAVE BEEN COACHING FOR FIVE YEARS.
A LOT OF THESE STUDENTS, FIRST TIME THEY PICKED UP A TENNIS RACKET.
SO WE HAVE ALL LEVELS OF PLAYERS.
WE HAVE THOSE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS.
WE HAVE THOSE WITH IEPS, 504 PLANS, SIX, SEVENTH, AND EIGHTH GRADERS OF ALL ABILITY LEVELS.
SO IT'S GREAT TO SEE THEM COME TOGETHER AS A TEAM.
SO THIS YEAR, WE HAVE 27, WHICH IS OUR LARGEST TEAM.
ONCE THEY SEE THAT THEY CAN BE SUCCESSFUL, COMPLAINED AGAINST EACH OTHER IN THE INNER SQUAD SCRIMMAGES, AS WELL AS AGAINST THE OTHER TEAMS, JUST SEEING THEIR CONFIDENCE GROW, I THINK IT GOES FARTHER THAN JUST BEING ON THE TENNIS COURT WHEN I FINISHED ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, I WASN'T REALLY GOOD AT ANY OF THE SPORTS I PLAYED.
SO I WANTED TO FIND SOMETHING NEW, AND I JUST KIND OF HAPPENED UPON THE TENNIS TEAM.
IT'S REALLY GOOD TO KNOW THAT THERE'S A PLACE WHERE I'M GOOD AT WHAT I DO.
IT'S REALLY GOOD FOR MY SELF CONFIDENCE LEVEL, AND IT HELPS ME, IN MY SCHOOL COMMUNITY, JUST HAVE PEOPLE TO TALK TO.
I THINK THEIR DESIRE TO PLAY HAS GROWN MORE THAN I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED IT.
IN YEARS PAST, IT WAS THEY'RE COMING TO BE WITH THEIR FRIENDS, AND THEY'RE COMING JUST TO DO THAT.
NOW IT'S, THERE'S 27 OF THEIR FRIENDS THAT THEY GET TO COME AND PRACTICE WITH AND LEARN AND GROW.
NO WORRY, BE HAPPY! WHOO! THE GIRLS ON THE MIDDLETOWN ELEMENTARY CHEER TEAM TAKE PRIDE IN THE FACT THAT THEIR SCHOOL HAS A CHEER TEAM.
I AM MY FIFTH GRADE TEACHER, AND THE HEAD COACH FOR CHEER AT MIDDLETOWN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
GRAB YOUR POMS. ALL OF THE THINGS.
IN FACT, LET'S GET THERE IN TEN.
I'VE BEEN A CHEER COACH HERE FOR FOUR AND A HALF YEARS.
WE STARTED OUT AS A CHEER CLUB IN THE SPRING, ONE YEAR, AND THEN THE NEXT YEAR WE HAD TRYOUTS, AND THE PLAN WAS TO CHEER FOR BASKETBALL GAMES.
WE GOT ABOUT A MONTH IN, AND REALIZED OUR GIRLS WERE PRETTY GOOD, AND DECIDED, HEY, I BET WE COULD COMPETE IN A COMPETITION AND DO PRETTY WELL.
WE ARE ONE OF A FEW LOCAL ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS WHO COMPETE, SO WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO WIN OUR REGIONALS TO GO TO STATE.
I LIKE HAVING A CHEER TEAM IN MY SCHOOL, AND I THINK THAT'S NICE TO HAVE A CHEER TEAM AT YOUR SCHOOL.
I CAN ACTUALLY, LIKE, SAY I'M A PART OF, LIKE, SOMETHING REALLY BIG.
A LOT OF THE GIRLS ARE, LIKE, REALLY NICE AND STUFF.
HOORAY! GO! I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR GIRLS TO BE EXPOSED TO CHEER OR ANY SPORT OR ACTIVITY, JUST AS A WAY TO BUILD RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER STUDENTS AND STAFF IN THE BUILDING.
IT GIVES THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD CONFIDENCE, WHICH IS WHAT I'VE SEEN A LOT WITH OUR YOUNG LADIES.
THEY REALLY COME OUT OF THEIR SHELLS, AND THEN YOU SEE THEM BE MORE CONFIDENT IN THE CLASSROOM, AND THEN I THINK THAT THAT'S GONNA LEAD AND MOVE WITH THEM INTO MIDDLE SCHOOL, HIGH SCHOOL, AND THE REST OF LIFE.
CHECK OUT THE GIRLS IN AVIATION DAY AT THE ACADEMY@SHAWNEE.
TODAY AT SHAWNEE WE ARE HAVING OUR ANNUAL GIRLS AND AVIATION DAY FOR OUR MIDDLE SCHOOL AND FRESHMAN GIRLS.
