The Laredo Independent School District received top honors at the 31st Annual Telly Awards for the "I'm a Read" and "Go to Class" music videos. The lyrics were written and performed by Superintendent A. Marcus Nelson and the music videos were produced by the ITV Department.
The Telly Awards is the premier award for outstanding local, regional and cable TV commercials, programs, videos and films. They are a widely known and respected national and international competition which receives over 11,000 entries annually from all 50 states and foreign countries. Entries are rated by judges and given a score from one to ten. A nine or better earns a Silver Telly Award while a score of seven to 8.9 garners a Bronze Telly Award.
LISD received a Silver Telly Award for the "I'm a Read" music video in the categories of TV5 Education and TV14 Music Videos. The district also received a Bronze Telly Award for the "Go to Class" music video in the categories of TV6 Entertainment and TV13 Music Videos. Other previous winners include the Discovery Channel, ESPN, CBS, and NBC Universal
"We are extremely excited to see the fruits of our labor. Dr. Nelson has some great ideas for motivational songs and music videos while we use our creative juices to bring those to life," said Jeanette Martinez, ITV coordinator.
