You might be surprised by who's behind the mics at The Fairfield Studio in Henrico County.

"Our mission is to create experiences that get students together to communicate positively, to listen to each other, to show off the work that they do," said Innovative Learning Coach Nick Lapres.

It's a changing world where information is immediate and reaction is instant. Like here at the Fairfield Middle School podcast.

Lapres said that his students are rising to the occasion, learning about positive communication in this digital tuned-in environment.

"Not only are they learning how to do it themselves, but one of the great things that they do is they teach other students how to do that too," Lapres said.
