The Junction City High School Marketing Class took a field trip to the 107.9 FM / 1420 AM KJCK Radio Studios to record ads that will air on the radio.
Under the direction of JCHS Marketing Teacher Christina Amerin, students prepared scripts to read in the form of an ad. Students promoted upcoming summer classes offered in the USD 475 School District. Other ads highlighted the success of the FFA program, the recent JCHS Career and Car Show, and the upcoming State Track and Field Meet in Wichita at the end of May.
“These students did a great job of taking text from other teachers at JCHS and turning that text into 15, 30, or 60-second advertisements for and about our school,” Amerin said. “They overcame some fear and anxiety and did a great job reading the ads they created. Soon, they will hear their own ads and voices on the radio – and that is the best part of this learning experience.”
All the ads recorded by the students will air on Eagle Radio's 107.9 FM / 1420 AM KJCK Radio.
