SchoolTube.com  Shines the Spotlight on Vintage's Weather Videos 

2/21/2017

 
SchoolTube, a video hosting site for schools, reached out to Vintage to compliment them on their weekly weather videos produced by 5th Grade STORM (Student Team Of Reporters & Meteorologists) students. STORM students meet voluntarily before school to track, record and report weather data gathered from the weather sensors above our school's auditorium. Visit our SchoolTube Channel to check out our weather videos and more: http://www.schooltube.com/channel/vintagemstmagnet. (The weekly weather video may also be found on our school website Home page - right hand side.) 

Below is the email SchoolTube sent to STORM's staff sponsor, Mrs. Stone:

Vintage Magnet is on SchoolTube's Home Page!

Hi Mrs. Stone, 

We are big fans of your student weather forecasts and wanted to highlight the hard work and creativity you all display. 

Your school is featured on SchoolTube.com on the right column under "Featured Schools". Please let everyone know! Vintage Magnet will be featured for at least the next 48 hours (from Monday, Feb. 21). 

Let us know if there is anything you need. We look forward to seeing more!

Thanks!
