A Step Towards Success By: Edward Barrientez


K-ROCK is a class most students do not even know about when they come to
Caprock. K-ROCK is a class also known as Broadcast Journalism in which
students here at Caprock High School are allowed to go out and about and produce
various films or interviews on certain projects with very expensive
filming equipment. Mrs. Larkan, the teacher of this class, show students
how to effectively film an event and how to correctly get an interview
from the students as well as the teachers and staff.
As I went around and interviewed a few of the students about how they
feel about K-ROCK, the response I got most was, "K-ROCK is a great
class being able to have the privilege to use expensive cameras and run
around the school interviewing people makes us feel as though we are
more than ready for the real world of broadcast journalism."
So for all you kids who are looking for a life in broadcast journalism,
K-ROCK is the class for you.
