Fernbank Field Trip

On Tuesday, April 12, we are taking a field trip to the Fernbank Museum to see the Mythic Creatures exhibit. Should be great fun! Here's the permission slip in case yours went missing.

READ!!

Our homework, in 6th and 7th Grade, is to READ in a quiet, dedicated space for 30 minutes (at least 15 pages) each and every night. Students should record the number of pages they read on their Reading Calendar.

Criminal Justice in Haiti

This article in this morning's Washington Post reminded me of a conversation we were having in class last week - what about criminals in Haiti? What's happening with the jails?
What do you think? With no court to have a trial in, should the government let the criminals go? Is it ok to hold them with no trial?
What about the 4,000 inmates that escaped from jail after the earthquake? Should the police try to find them - or focus on something else?
