"My School Rocks!" wins PBS Development Inspiration Award

On May 18, 2011, WTVI accepted a 2010 PBS Development Inspiration Award for the first year of the "My School Rocks!" competition. Andrew Jackson, Independence, Lake Norman, North Mecklenburg, Rock Hill and West Charlotte high schools competed in the first annual WTVI and MSR Magazine competition for the right to claim their choir as the "Most Rocking School in the Carolinas." Congratulations to WTVI producer Jere Thomas for heading this successful project that recognized Lake Norman as the winning school choral program with a $5000 prize and raised $18,000 for WTVI. Inspiration Award winners were recognized at the PBS Annual Meeting in Orlando.
