Turn It Up: Teen Radio

This program incorporates literacy and public speaking into a curriculum that exposes teens to the industry of Journalism and Radio Broadcast. Teens are mentored by industry professionals and challenged every month to create and produce their very own radio show. The program is in partnership with Charlotte Mecklenburg Library and   Carolina’s School of Broadcasting.
