2012 Open House

What a fantastic night! We had many parents, students and even former students come to see what's going on in AP World History and Honors World History. We had many fun stations for our visitors. First guests were welcomed by Kathy, Alexa and Kaylan. If they were AP, then went to hear about some sample projects from Tien, Sabrina, Jessica and Tiffany. After then learned about our writing and document analysis, from Arlene and Jennifer. If students were honors, the visitors went to Victor to hear about some sample projects and then Adriana showed parents our strategy for learning the language of the discipline. The culminating event was something not to be missed-- The debate. The topic was Should the US have dropped the Atomic Bombs on Japan? It was a competition between Gerard and Jordan's AP World classes and it was intense. The whole class was filled with parents and students ready to hear the arguments. Both sides presented detailed rationale for their argument and appealed to their audience. Outstanding job to everyone! Jessica, Marisa, Quennie and Mike represented our class.

All parents loved hearing from our students and the debate. Great job everyone and keep up the good work.
