High School Time
Produced by: Richard Paul
From 6:00 am to 6:00 pm, a student, teacher, and principal let us in on their world of bells, tests, technology, and teen life. We track what a day is like at Westfield High School in Virginia. With almost 3,000 students, it is one of the largest schools in the Washington, DC area. This program is part of our ongoing series on education and technology.

Program Credits

High School Time was produced by Richard Paul. Field producers were Lakshmi Singh and Katie Gott. The show was mixed by Jared Weissbrot. We'd like to thank Matt McCleskey for recording sound for this program. Also thanks to the faculty, staff and students of Westfield High School in Chantilly, Virginia for their help and cooperation. Archival footage was supplied by the Internet Moving Images Archive, at archive-dot-org. This program was produced with support from the National Endowment for the Arts and the US Department of Education.
