‘For a school our size, it’s pretty impressive’: Students at Sisters High build new television studio
SISTERS, Ore. (KTVZ)— The Sisters High School AV Club has been busy recently, building the school’s new television studio.
Almost completely designed and built by students, the new studio brings a fresh look to the school’s weekly TV news show.
“We worked together to write a grant for our Sister School Foundation. and thankfully, it was approved,” AV Club President Jack Turpin said Monday.
“So over the past few months, we’ve just kind of been waiting for all the stuff to get in. And then over break, we spent some time and we put it together, and we’ve slowly been working it together a little bit.”

District & School Report Cards
The Oregon Department of Education produces annual report cards for schools and districts. These reports were mandated by the 1999 state legislature and provide educators with an opportunity to communicate directly with parents and community members about how local schools are performing.
In 2013, the Oregon Department of Education released a redesigned school and district Report Card. This redesigned Report Card was the product of a year of review and revisions, led by an external Report Card Steering Committee and informed by feedback from thousands of stakeholders around the state.
The goals of the redesign were to:
- More accurately reflect student learning and growth
- Incorporate key measures of college and career readiness
- Align the Report Card with a district’s achievement compacts
- Make the Report Cards more user friendly and accessible
For more information on the school and district report cards, please visit the Oregon Department of Education website.
