Broughton’s television station is celebrated its 20th anniversary in style in the  2011-2012 school year! A reunion anniversary celebration took place on  December 20th, 2011.  WCAP was conceived in 1991 by sophomore students Brian Martin, Roderick  Smith, and Bryan Johnson. Under the leadership of principal Diane Payne,  Broughton equipped its video studio and began student-produced broadcasts in  1992. In February, 1993, WCAP went to a daily live program format, which  continues today. Advisors for WCAP have included Ann Bridgers, Melvin  Williams, Brandon Mangum, Julian Bridgers, and currently Brian Martin.  Along the line numerous groups have helped WCAP become the success it has,  including the BHS PTSA, The Class of 1999, and the BHS Band. SAS Institute  donated our amazing current newsdesk. The Capital Foundation allowed WCAP  to equip the studio with teleprompters in 2006. The Capital Foundation also  upgraded 2 edit stations in 2010 to allow for HD editing and Blu-Ray authoring!  Keeping Broughton Students Informed For 20 Years...
