The Little Detectives -
Knox Elementary School

Academic success and effective study strategies are essential skills for student achievement. In this creative dramatic film produced by students at Know Elementary School, young filmmakers wrote their own script and performed as junior detectives investigating the mystery of improving test scores. Through interviews with teachers, staff, and their principal, combined with entertaining dramatic scenes, students present practical study techniques and test-taking strategies that help fellow students boost their academic performance and build classroom confidence.

This film was created during a film workshop series with Young Moviemakers of America (YMA) during the spring 2025 semester.

"If our stories aren't told by us, they aren't told correctly."
