Story Idea #5

Are school districts serving healthy food choices at public schools specifically in the Centre County area.

Axle (focus): This story will focus on children who attend public schools and whether or not their food is nutritional. I will take a look at whether this food is helping or hindering children physically and mentally especially while their in school. They say that kids are becoming obese in America. Could this be because of the food that children are consuming in schools? Having a good balanced diet is said to help children grow up healthy and also it aids with their productivity in class.

Riders (who): Teachers, Students, Principal, Mayor, Parents, School Board

Spokes (details): Details can include school budget. The school might determine what foods they can provide the children with. Also the lunch programs that are provided by the government to feed these kids. Where the food comes from and why they chose these foods to be on the menu.

RIM: (Structure)

Beginning: It will start with footage of a school bus and then the shot will lead to the front of the school. This will create the scene. Then I will provide footage of the kids going to class. I can also show how kids are interacting within a class.

Middle: Their will be shots of students going into the cafeteria. I can provide footage of how the lunch process works specifically with the perspective of the lunch ladies. It’ll show a more in depth understanding of how the food is prepared. Then the children will come in when its lunch time. I’ll have interviews with the lunch ladies and their thoughts about the food and how they prepare it. Interviews while the children are eating and asking them if they like the food etc. The concern of the school board and lunch meals.

End: A shot of the school from the outside with an ending narration of what information was founded. Awareness of what people can do to help to stop obesity within our children.
