Flowery Branch Elementary news anchors Kaycie Smith, left, and Azul Mendoza demonstrate their morning school news broadcast Thursday afternoon in their tiny studio in the school's media center. The school has started a GoFundMe project to purchase new broadcasting equipment to replace its aging monitors and other equipment.
Flowery Branch Elementary School’s newsroom is a decade behind. Equipment 30 students use daily for broadcasts are in a state of disrepair and librarian Karen Hickey wants an update. She created a GoFundMe page requesting donations in the amount of $4,265.
