With the grant and additional funds provided by the school district, Lundgren was able to purchase two cameras with tripods, two boom microphones, some lighting and a backdrop.
The new equipment has been used by students to record an original production called “The Art of Healing.” This show features the entire fine arts department and will include band and choral performances, dances, as well as dramatic monologues and skits.
“Our plan is to film multiple students doing different things and then edit them together into a cohesive production. It’s basically our big collaborative thing we do every year and this year we couldn’t get together and do it so we’re doing it this way instead,” said Lundgren.
There will be 10 students selected annually over the next five years. Each will receive a $1,000 scholarship in the fall and $1,000 in the spring to help cover their tuition. They will also receive a laptop from the TCC Foundation, and a $500 book scholarship to the TCC Bookstore.
Currently, there are more than 400 students from Godby High enrolled at TCC. Just over 17% are dual enrolled students and 80% of them are on some kind of financial aid.
These scholarships will help ease the burden of these graduates as they take their next step post high school.
Oliver/Sperry partners Bill Oliver and Todd Sperry and Allen Nobles are all Godby High School alumni.
