Springdale Today Season 2, Episode 30 | Iawke: Hello, Goodbye.

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2399855/fan_mail/new] Springdale Today welcomes Springdale High School teacher Rachelle Nichols; Bulldog Media Program students Angel Kumtak and Yulissa Martinez-Fuentes; film director Nathan Fitch; and creative director and designer Jacob Hawkes, whose story inspired the film “Iawke: Hello, Goodbye.” Hawkes, who was adopted from the Marshall Islands as a child, unexpectedly reconnected with his biological relatives after knocking on the door of his aunt’s Springdale home in 2019 while working as a door-to-door salesman. The encounter sparked a deeper journey into his heritage, culminating in his first visit to the Marshall Islands in 2024. Fitch, known for his documentary work with Marshallese communities, collaborated with screenwriter Russell Sharman to adapt Jacob’s story into the short, narrative film. Hawkes stars as himself in the film, which was produced in Springdale with support from Springdale High School’s Bulldog Media Production students, who gained hands-on experience and pay through the experience.

Springdale Today Season 2, Episode 29 | Heavy Stuff

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2399855/fan_mail/new] In this episode, we explore a groundbreaking shift in vocational education through a heavy equipment operations training program that is breaking the traditional mold. While most specialized technical training is typically managed by colleges or private trade schools, this initiative is uniquely owned and operated by Springdale Public Schools, putting the power of career readiness directly into the hands of the district. The conversation features a dynamic panel representing the full ecosystem of the program: Dewayne Ellison of Garret Excavating provides the industry perspective on the vital need for skilled operators, Springdale High School teacher Chad Burkett discusses the hands-on instructional side of the curriculum, and student Shem Paul shares his firsthand experience navigating the transition from the classroom to the cab of a bulldozer. Together, they discuss how this direct-to-work pipeline is bypassing conventional hurdles to provide students with high-demand skills and immediate career opportunities straight out of high school.
