We have looked at the Corinthian and Galatian churches and compared them to the contemporary church in America. We have looked at many questions such as: How far have we come? What issues do we face? How much does Paul’s advice relate to our present situations? We have been investigating these questions and learning more about the grace of God and the effect it should have on our lives.

We have investigated campaigns and elections and we have a better understanding of what it takes to get elected, and how a candidate needs to position themselves for the best results. PAC’s, contributions, advertising, networking, and a relentless spirit will help, but it is ultimately the voters who wil choose.

The most horrific conflict of all time is behind us and the tensions of the Cold War are upon us. Who is a Communist? Is it you?? Is it me?? Over the backdrop of the Cold War, we are fighting for Civil Rights in America. African Americans are leading the way and change is coming — love and peace are also new buzzwords that are lingering in the atmosphere.

Advanced Algebra – We have gotten through factoring, FOILing and functions. We can now estimate LeBron’s hang time or the time it will take for a pop-fly to be caught – stuff we never knew math could be useful for. Totally Amazing!

9th grade presented their skit for chapel this past Friday. All 9th grade homerooms helped put together an amazing performance that reached our student body in an intense way. This skit demonstrated how each of us wear different masks to hide our true identity, but when we turn to Jesus we find out who we are in Him.

We have been discussing Illicit Drugs. Each group is required to do extensive research. Each group will present and have a board to display facts about various drugs. They will display presentations through skits, power point, and poster boards.

This month we had fun with a chapter called “Los Pasatiempos” (favorite pass times).
The vocabulary learned dealt with different types of hobbies, sports and things that people like to do in their spare time. The students enjoyed some class time playing board games and trying to converse in Spanish while they were being competitive. It was fun and a good speaking practice for them.
