whose ring...?


BROSZ STADIUM

As you know we held a community meeting last night regarding the naming of Jose Brosz Stadium.  The committee made up of students, parents, and community members unanimously  voted to officially name the stadium after Jose.
There are a few step that still need to be taken and we will keep you updated along the way.
I would like to thank Dean Nafarrete and our ASB President Cole Hauck for their work in setting up and leading this meeting.

Have a great day,

wait, what...?

Hello Mr. B,

My name is Michael Acosta and I'm the educational representative for WyoTech. WyoTech is a non-profit nationally accredited career college that offers programs in the transportation and motor sports industry. Students receive training in a fast-growing and exciting industry. Most students from our area attend the campus in Laramie, Wyoming; however, we have other locations in Florida and Pennsylvania. WyoTech is well known for the quality of graduates in the industry. You can look us up at https://www.wyotech.edu/

My primary job with WyoTech is to work with students through a motivational career workshop which shares a lot of good general information and statistical data about options for education after high school, including Traditional College, Junior College, Military and Technical Training.

One of the most interesting parts of the career workshop is an activity where we will interactively discuss some important information about how to have a professional attitude and how to conduct themselves during job interviews that will help them get employed. It's designed to help students realize the importance of continuing their education beyond high school and finding a career that fits them, whatever that might be. We also talk about grants, loans and scholarships available to seniors who choose to continue their education.

I would appreciate the opportunity to provide a career workshop to your senior students. I'm confident you would find it helpful and very supportive of the principals you are teaching in your classes. I would appreciate the opportunity to work with you and your students this school year.

I am scheduling appointments for September and October at this time. I can be contacted by phone, or e-mail. My e-mail address is Michael.acosta@zenith.org or you can feel free to call me at my office number (951) 532-5840. I look forward to hearing from you.
         
Sincerely,
Michael Acosta   
Field Admissions Representative

weekly photo assignment - birds/worms eye view 12 +12





photo essay

find a few photos online and write in your own words a reaction...
cars are dangerous and when teen-agers drive  they should not be distracted or sing 'sweet child of mine' like in the step brothers movie or they could get hit by cars and break femurs so firemen need to rescue them and doctors need to fix all the broken bones... sometimes it takes a few months for everything to be ok and parents stress out and try to have faith that everything will be ok. 
this is a very different looking image 16 years after some crazy religious fanatics hijacked airplanes and flew them into buildings just to create terror in america.  it took that long to clear the area and rebuild another structure in the same location in addition to a memorial to the 3,000 people who died from that days events. the terror organization never thought we would find them and bring justice to their caves and hidden compounds but the us military, fbi and cia eventually did find the leaders and end the possibility of other threats from them.
