Pik8a During first semester, art students were exposed to Left Brained Thinking by their teacher, Ms. Kit Faulk. One of the biggest projects for the students was silk screening. They also threw pots on the wheel and did other projects with clay. We also did contour drawings, said Nathan Maune, senior. You keep your pencil on the paper the whole time you are drawing and don't look at your paper, only your subject. It was lots of Gun, and helped to develop our drawing skills. During second semester, the students worked on sets and props for the school musical South Pacific under the supervision of Mrs. Nancy Fowlkes, art teacher. In the business department, Accounting II was offered for the first time along with Accounting I, Ch Typing I and II, Business Principles and Advertising and Marketing. Accounting II reinforced the things we had learned in Accounting I, said senior Danny Norman, who won the Accounting II award at the end of the year. We also learned things we hadn't studied in Accounting I, like depreciation. With so many things to choose from-from art to music to journalism to languages-students had no trouble filling in the electives spaces in their schedules. Sllkiance.

Littl Learnin Making volcanoes, learning Creole and contacting foreign countries. These were just a few of the activities that made up a lower school student's life. Learning to read, write and add took up much of a first grader's time. I, like math tests. They are fun because they are so easy. We also have read a bunch of books. I like to read, said first grader Sara Leonard. Health and Nutrition was also a favorite unit among first graders. Within this unit, the children prepared a nutritious lunch and took a field trip to an apple orchard. Learning cursive and writing pen- pals kept second graders busy. While they waited for letters from their out-of-town pen pals, students wrote reports on different countries of interest. They also invited their parents to come to school for a book conference to help with their book reports. Busywork. Third graders jason Croom and lason Clayton draw the background for a play which Mrs. Nancy Massey's room produced. We went to Mexico Chiquito for lunch, said second grader Bryan Fuller. I ate a whole bunch! We also made fish that looked like they were swimming in the sea with a lot of sunken treasures and sunken ships floating around. We used colored paper for the background and cut out the fish and glued them on. Learning to speak Creole and studying about Haiti were part of the third graders' academic program. One day they even had the opportunity to eat like poor Haitian children. To help with the problem of poverty in Haiti, the children did a chore or task at home to earn money for a collection that went to purchase food for some children in Haiti. I earned an allowance from cleaning the table and raking the leaves from the lawn, said Daniel Gold. Student teacher. Alexi Gomez, first grader, teaches her class the colors in Spanish.
