BTV N3WS Program Awarded Scholastic Press Gold Medal

The Florida Scholastic Press Association (FSPA) awarded The Benjamin School's TV Program, BTV N3WS, a gold medalist with “Special Distinction” status in the areas of writing and audio. BTV N3WS is produced on the Upper School Campus by students in the Television Broadcasting program led by faculty member Ken Archer. This is the 6th consecutive year BTV has earned honors from the FSPA, keeping its run of being known as one of the premiere TV programs in the State alive. BTV earned a Top-15 "National " ranking from the National Scholastic Press Association in December. Judges said the newscasts were well written and the anchors had a professional on-camera presence.

"I came here in 2011 to build a program that can be looked at as the premiere TV program in South Florida and the State," said Director of Multimedia Production Ken Archer.

"What the Benjamin students have achieved over the past 7-years is nothing short of remarkable.  All-Florida honors and 5 Gold Medals from the Florida Scholastic Press Association and a top-15 National ranking from the National Scholastic Press Association.  The Benjamin TV students are proof that if you listen, learn, work hard and work with a passion and dedication for excellence, that the sky is the limit.  I cannot express enough how proud I am of not only the 2017-18 TV students, but all the Benjamin TV students who came before them to set such high standards.  Benjamin truly is Nulli Secundus!"
