EDUCATION CORNER: SEMINOLE RIDGE EARNS HONORS AT FSPA

Students from the Seminole Ridge Television Production Academy earned impressive recognition at the Florida Scholastic Press Association (FSPA) District 7 Workshop, standing out among top media programs from Palm Beach and Broward Counties.

In the fast paced “On the Spot” contests, where teams have only hours to plan, shoot and edit, Seminole Ridge delivered strong results. The Edit to the Beat team of Kaden Orton, Tayshaun Miller, Taylor Shipp and Abby Nosworthy earned second place, as did the Movie Teaser team of Mason Contessa, Nathan Lara, Olivia Anderson Dragon, Nathan Figurella and Seth James. Third place in News Package was awarded to Lilian Amiryan, Nick Ruddick, Alexia Ordonez and Magdaline Moorman.

The academy also earned multiple All Florida Awards in FSPA’s Fall Digital Contests, with students recognized for Deadline Feature, Broadcast Commentary, Drama Film, Action Film, Hype Video, Illustration and Podcast production. These honors reflect strong technical skill, creativity and teamwork across the program.

With another successful showing at FSPA, the Hawks now prepare for two major spring events: the Student Television Network National Convention and The Palm Beaches Student Showcase of Films, where they are expected to be strong contenders once again.
