Nocona High School film teacher Rob Norman was unsure the school would have a film to enter in the Texas University Interscholastic League competition this year after three of his students graduated.
However, Norman says three new students stepped up to make one of the best documentary films Nocona has ever produced continuing the strong tradition the school has built in the competition.
“I feel like every year we have gotten better and it really shows,” said Norman.
