Su Valley Voice Youth Edition: Final Episode Ahead of Summer!

KTNA and Su Valley High School partnered during the second semester of the 2025-26 school year to create a Radio Journalism Club. The Club met weekly at the school for the purpose of producing a monthly Su Valley Voice: Youth Edition.

• Cas O’Dell, Su Valley High School incoming Junior and sole member of this past semester’s Radio Journalism Club

In addition to discussing the Club’s beginning and purpose, the episode featured student conducted interviews with:

• Ben Knowles, Fire Chief for the Willow/Caswell Fire Department
• Mr. Sickler – Su Valley High School Teacher and Athletics Director
• Mr. Lanning – Su Valley High School Shop Teacher
