I seem to have been among the missing the last week or so, but here I am again.
This week we reviewed for and then took the second part of the U.S. Citizenship Test. I hope as parents you enjoyed being quizzed on the test questions. I am told that most of you did very well on the test, congratulations. The student tests will be corrected and returned next week.
Today, we also read two articles from Upfront Magazine and had brief discussions about "Whatever Happened to Global Warming" (why it does not seem to be out in front in the news) and "Can I See Some ID?" (What is behind the new sate voter ID laws).
For the next three weeks, during the "musical" intensive weeks and production week we will have one class a week on Fridays, from 8:30am-9:30am. Looking ahead, we will use these days to finish the last two chapters in "We The People"which deal with , "What are the responsibilities of citizens?".
Best,
Steve
PS Ken Burn's visit last Friday was wonderful, and the students interactions and questions, were terrific. If you know Ken and see him, please thank him as he has been to our class four times this year (amazing) and we will be going to his studio for a tour and visit on May 17th.
