INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA – On Monday, March 11, 2024, the Indiana Association of School Broadcasters (IASB) announced their 2024 conference winners.

IASB is a statewide award system that features high school and college students and all their achievements in the media world. It is considered to be one of the toughest award systems in the country. ⁣⁣

The IASB award ceremony was hosted at Butler University where CHTV and WHJE students received their awards. ⁣⁣

CHTV has been attending this conference for over ten years! In 2014, CHTV was named Indiana’s #1 High School television station by IASB. Since 2016, CHTV hasn’t won a first-place award at the competition. However, this year, CHTV won several first-place awards, including the title of “Emerging Media School of the Year” along with the radio station, WHJE. Emerging media is one of the 5 divisions schools can win in. To even have your school place in one of these divisions is a difficult task.

“We are beyond excited for our return to first place at IASB since 2016. And placing in first for Emerging Media School of the Year shows that our broadcasting students are really exploring new kinds of content creation,” said CHTV Faculty Adviser, Brandy Ostojic.

This year, CHTV placed in the following categories:

1st Place | Emerging Media School of the Year

1st Place | Best Vodcast – Jack Ringenberg (Media Minds: Episode 1)

2nd Place | Video Spot Production – Coyer Paradise & Dylan Delise (Kickstart Commerical)
