Sarah Obrzut commented on Lauren Chemello's blog post Why Don't Most Teachers Let Students Sleep In Class?

Why Don't Most Teachers Let Students Sleep In Class?

Statistics show that teenagers need 10 hours of sleep each night. Well, mostly all teenagers have busy schedules and don't get 10 hours of sleep each night. I know I don't! So if this fact is true, why won't teachers let their students fall asleep in class? I have American Studies 7th and 8th period and I won't lie, I'm wiped out by then. I get so tired and it's really hard to pay attention. Mr. McCusker always tells my class that if he didn't care about us, then he would let us sleep. Now I…

Do we really need practice ACT testing?

So all us juniors know about the ACT tests. Do you all remember that one day, particularly Friday, February 19? That was the day we had the early dismissal and all juniors had to do that practice ACT that was POINTLESS! The American Studies classes were in the Auditorium and I remember the teachers asked everyone who has taken the ACT already to raise their hands. Literally almost everyone in the room raised their hands! What's the point of taking the test if pretty much everyone already…

I don't know if I will be at school tomorrow. I mean I get the jist of it but I'm still confused on the part under the Roman Numeral. I get what I am supposed to do with the "A, B, C" but I don't get what to do after that..

"There are many options out there, but to standardize is to tell a lot of teachers to learn something new or unfamiliar... it's a tricky subject.  That's why I'd love to start my own school, powered by Edmodo, Ning, etc :)"

9/11 Skylines and Turnstiles

I'm not usually someone who writes a lot , not publicly anyway but I do love to express my self through art, usually visual art but most of the time the art I make is influenced by something . In this case it's a song a written by one of my favorite musicians as a response to the feeling of horror and disbelief as he watched the Twin Towers in New York go from icons to ruins on 9/11/01. The song is sad,…See More
