The Day Before the Day Before the Holidays Start!

Yesterday the sophomores did make-up work. Several of them were missing the Code of Ethics assignment and the Little Rock Nine assignment.

All students need to do a better job at taking notes in at least 3 classes a day.

Today the juniors worked on the following questions about the Achievement Gap in Tacoma:

1. TEACHER QUALITY
Write about a time when you feel you learned more because of your teacher.

Write about a time when you feel you didn’t learn as much as you could have because of your teacher.


2. CULTURAL COMPETENCY
Write about a time when a teacher or staff member at school did or said something racist either purposefully or out of ignorance.

OR

Write about a time when you could relate to what was being taught because it included your culture or something that is unique about you. Did it help you learn the material better because you could relate to it?

The Seniors continued their work on the Palmer Scholarship which is due on Monday!
