Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. The show profiles athletes from various sports who demonstrate talent as well as commitment and drive. The featured players are positive role models for kids. Although both male and female athletes are shown, the majority are male. Athletes are mostly African American and Caucasian and come from various socioeconomic backgrounds. SPORTS STARS OF TOMORROW is a weekly magazine series that showcases up and coming young athletes whose talent and hard work are making them winners. Each episode includes a variety of news features that highlight the featured athletes success in sports, as well as the hard work thats gotten them that far. Family members and coaches are introduced, too, allowing viewers to get a better idea of the many people involved in each athletes achievement. Although the show focuses on the players athletic prowess and the awards and scholarships theyve received because of their talents it also presents these young athletes as regular kids, many of whom spend their time volunteering, tutoring children with learning disabilities, and even being elected prom queen. Sports Stars of Tomorrow is clearly aimed at young people who are interested in sports as well as young hopefuls who dream of becoming elite athletes themselves. But the series also reflects some of the realities of contemporary sports. Many more young men than young women are profiled, and the majority of the feature players are either Caucasian or African American. In an environment in which athletes, inappropriate behavior, and greed are often linked, Sports Stars of Tomorrow reminds us that there are many good, talented kids working hard to achieve their athletic goals and to become solid members of their communities. The featured kids are truly positive role models not just for future generations of athletes, but for all young people. Sub Channel

Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. Pearlie is an animated comedy series based on the childrens book series Pearlie the Park Fairy by Wendy Harmer. Pearlie is an optimistic, light-hearted fairy who sees the good in everybody, but often gets into situations because her desire to help is larger than her capacity to deliver. Aimed for an audience within the 4 to 8 year old range, Pearlie focuses on the importance of following the rules, using good judgment and learning how to avoid getting into trouble. Since Pearlie was appointed by Fairy Head Quarters HQ to keep Jubilee Park in sparkling order she has constant challenges with her basic goal of keeping everyone happy and making sure the park functions smoothly. Pearlies nemesis and cousin Saphira, often takes advantage of Pearlies good nature which requires that Pearlie must also frequently outwit the park bully. In each episode, we see Pearlie approach new tasks and problems with a great deal of enthusiasm, but without the organization required to get the job done. Through plot developments and with the assistance of her friends, Opal and Jasper, she learns what to do and what not to do in each situation so the park can be restored to order. Sub Channel
