Decatur High School (DHS) won the grand prize for its 15-second montage, "Five Freedoms PSA," by students Asa Aroesty and Lauren Ford in the third annual Five Freedoms Public Service Announcement Contest, a national video competition for high school students. Each school receives $1,000 for its broadcast journalism program.

"Awareness about the First Amendment is growing, and we're pleased that our PSA will contribute to the efforts of so many groups who are working to protect students' constitutional rights," said DHS Broadcast Journalism teacher Jon Reese.

"This year, we received more than 250 entries in the Five Freedoms PSA Contest. That's a new record — and a credit to the Student Television Network and to the addition of SchoolTube and the Newseum as partners," said Carol Knopes, director of education projects at the Radio and Television News Directors Foundation. "Judges were impressed by the winners' strong First Amendment messages and video skills."

The contest was sponsored by the Newseum, the Student Television Network, SchoolTube, and the Radio and Television News Directors Foundation's High School Broadcast Journalism Project.
