Shhhh....
What a great way to start off the year. first period of the the first day! Complete silence. I was running on 45 minutes of sleep at the time, so I think i appreciated it a little more than most. Thanks Sal =] But i see the point our teacher was trying to make. We as students our so used the nature order of all things school. Especially as seniors, we have been through the drill for 13 years of are lives. That's crazy! In all that time, I personally have only had 2-3 teachers that don't teach with that common system. Stand in front and tell us what to know, what to memorize. We rarely actually learn, like our teacher said, we get "schooled". It is quite worrying, but it is our responsibility as the next generation, the future leaders of our country and schools, that we change this system. One way Mr. Salituro strays away from this system of memorization and telling is blogging. At first, I must admit, I was skeptical of this idea. But only after the first week of school I can see how beneficial it will be on our semester of actual learning. It was allows us to share ideas outside the classroom, or in my case, after 8 o'clock. I look forward to more blogging and hopefully some more akward silences!

Hey there!!!!
Hello I'm Alex! I am a senior in high school and only plan on attending one semester. I am graduating early because four years is way too much. I cannot wait to get out of here. I plan on getting job for the second semester and going to the local community college for a semester. After that i plan on going to a four year school with interest in business. Besides business, I love history and sports. I played football and watch it regularly. I'm also a huge fan of mixed martial arts and watch it whenever I can. I cannot wait to blog about everything sociology hope to have a great time in the class!
