Each month, WHRO produces a 30-minute magazine program for educators called School Talk Monthly. This national award-winning program features video clips and Internet sites for teachers to use, which are correlated to Virginia Standards of Learning. One-on-one interviews with outstanding educators and students, on-location segments highlighting exciting school projects and activities and upcoming professional development events are also featured. Each month four local schools (elementary, middle, high, and independent) are recognized as Schools of the Month. We are happy to inform you that Tallwood High School has been selected as the High School of the Month for our October 2009 program.
We hope that you will enjoy watching your school’s segment on the program, which airs the first and third Sundays from 2:00-2:30 p.m. October–May on WHRO-TV. You can also view School Talk online via video streaming at our website, www.schooltalk.org. In addition, the information is posted on our site each month with links to the schools’ websites. We encourage you to also post this information on your school’s site and school billboard/marquee, if applicable.
Schools are selected based on academic achievement or for community service activities. WHRO staff reviews school websites each month to determine the selections.
