WITF, School District To Offer TV Programming

WITF and the Harrisburg School District have announced that they are partnering together to bring free, over-the-air curricula to students and families who have been tasked with learning at home due to the coronavirus.

WITF will broadcast programming linked to curricula over both of its channels, WITF and WITFK PBS KIDS 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Its Educational Services department has worked with the Office of Academic Affairs to assess which currently scheduled programs align with the standards and curricula of the Harrisburg School District.

Educators are working to build schedules for all students in preschool through 12th grade. From shows like "Sesame Street" for preschoolers to "NOVA" for high schoolers, WITF TV offers something educational for all age groups.
