Telecom students recently had a visit from a representative of Full Sail University, a college that offers degrees related to entertainment, arts, media, and technology.

Amid the excitement of Heritage High School's Girls' Indoor Track winning the Class 4 State Championship, NNPS held its annual Track Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, which was broadcast live on NNPS-TV (Cox Ch. 47/Verizon Fios 17) and livestreamed on YouTube.

The Telecom team has been pulling double duty lately, doing two livestreams at once, covering back-to-back basketball games, and recording two "Sports Highlights" shows in one day.
