Being on the Debate Team

Post Published November 26, 2017 by Lucy Regnier Kline

On the day of my first debate competition, nerves bounced around in my gut. I was scared that I would stumble over words or freeze up when being interrogated about what my speech said. I was also excited, though. I was eagerly awaiting the moment when I showed my team and our opponents what I could do in my speech.

Why is No Team Picking Up Colin Kaepernick?

Post Published November 25, 2017 by Leo T. Smith

If you do not follow either football or politics, then you might not know who Colin Kaepernick is. He is a former NFL quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers who now cannot get a job in football.

Designing the top 5 NBA Franchises

Post Published November 7, 2017 by Leo T. Smith

These are the best 5 NBA franchises of all time, in my opinion. I include the team's best point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward, center, and 6th best player. I also calculate chemistry. For example, Steph Curry, Michael Jordan, Kevin Durant, Charles Barkley, and Shaq would not be the best team ever, even though they are some of the best players ever.

Most seem to think that the desert is a dry, barren place devoid of life and beauty of any sort, besides dead plants that dotted the hills.

Fahrenheit 451 and the Impact of Electronic Devices

Post Published October 20, 2017 by Sarah Cymrot

The first time I read Fahrenheit 451, I was struck by Ray Bradbury’s remarkable writing. The second time, the breathtaking plot. The third time, the horrific, but modern ideas. I just finished my third time reading Fahrenheit 451, and the full force of the significant meaning hit me. There are so many big ideas in Fahrenheit 451 about children, love, books, and technology.
