Storytelling for the 21st century produced by local students has earned a primetime spot on PBS Hawaii's fall lineup. HIKI NŌ: The Nation's First Statewide Student News Network premiered its second season on Thursday, October 13 at 7:30 p.m. Students from 65 public, private and charter schools are participating in the weekly half-hour program.
"HIKI NŌ gives voice to our youth as they use real-world skills to share stories from diverse communities across our island state," said PBS Hawaii President and CEO Leslie Wilcox. "Through the process of gathering information, writing, shooting and producing their stories, HIKI NŌ students develop critical thinking and workforce skills, while meeting PBS Hawaii's high standards for broadcast journalism," added Wilcox.
"The quality of storytelling is worthy of prime-time," said Robert Pennybacker, PBS Hawaii's VP of Creative Services. "Now, more people will have the opportunity to watch HIKI NŌ."
