On Wednesday and Thursday, October 7 and 8, were my last two days of visiting the High School. I was able to visit one class for each teacher over the past month. My visits this week included a couple of the Science 9 classes where observations vs inference discussions were taking place. I also was able to visit the Guidance and Counseling Office where I met a student who was planning his life after he graduates in 2010. Go Class of 2010! It was refreshing to see that when I stopped in one of the Geometry classes the students were not only excited about the subject matter, but their progress in the class as well. The NJROTC class was another opportunity that I was able to experience. Students were making sure they were ready for their inspections, and were at attention when I walked in to their class. I have completed my visits to the HS and will be heading to Franklin Elementary School beginning October 13, 2009.287-70=217 to go!
After I left the HS, I prepared for the visitors from Japan. They arrived at the HS around 5:00 pm on thursday afternoon, and we met up with all of them at 6:30 at the Bushwacker Restaurant. It was very nice to meet them, and as they say, "a picture is worth a thousand words."
