Collierville High School’s Television Studio is a working television station. We operate government and educational programming most of which is created by our students.

In this class, you will be a part of our studio. You will learn how to create programing and hopefully get a chance to contribute some by the end of the year. You will also be responsible for working on our morning TV show, Collierville AM. Collierville AM is used to get news and information to our students and it is broadcast live from our studio almost every morning. Only during certain tests do we suspend broadcast.

In addition to Collierville AM, you will participate in shooting school functions and sporting events. In short there is a good deal of work to be done outside of class.
