How much better can a field trip be than getting a tour and spending time with one of our alumni?? We spent our Wednesday night at Local 4 News WHBF TV with Redrick Terry Local 4 News. Thank you Redrick for showing us around your station and answering questions about the broadcasting field!

A VERY busy Wednesday for our NBS members! We started off by ‘stuffing the bus’ to help local food pantries collect non-perishable food donations. Then, we decorated Christmas cards for veterans while enjoying some pizza. A great day giving back to those in need and who served our country! 🇺🇸❤️

Our first field trip of the school year is in the books! Last night we traveled to Quincy to tour WGEM News - The Tri-States' News Leader. We had a wonderful time checking out the brand-new newsroom and networking with the anchors, producers and production staff. Thank you WGEM for a great evening!
