Guyan Valley Middle School is celebrating a remarkable achievement as our talented broadcasting students and dedicated teachers brought home top honors from the 2025 Kanawha Valley Region “Explore: The New Manufacturing” Student Video Contest!
In partnership with J.Q. Dickenson Salt-Works, our students crafted an outstanding video project that highlighted the heritage, innovation, and operations of the historic salt company. Students conducted interviews with Salt-Works employees and created a visually engaging and informative feature that left a lasting impression on both judges and viewers.
Their hard work and creativity paid off in a big way! GVMS broadcasting students were awarded:
🏅 Viewers’ Choice Award
🏅 Best Manufacturing Message
🏅 Team Spirit Award
Additionally, we are incredibly proud to share that Ms. Carmen and Ms. Walden were honored with the prestigious 2025 Outstanding Industry Educator Award, recognizing their leadership, mentorship, and commitment to student success in media and industry education.
This accomplishment shines a bright light on the innovation and collaboration happening at GVMS every day. Our students will now move forward to compete at the state level—and we know they will continue to represent us with excellence!
Guyan Valley Middle School is shining with pride! 🌟 Congratulations to our amazing students and educators—you make us proud!
