If you were the Principal for a week at BVHS, what would that look like? What changes would you make? Why? 

If I was the principle for a week absolutely nothing would change except for the schedule. I would have block day everyday and Wednesday and Thursday would stay the same. I would change this because I think kids get more done on block days and they have more time to understand the topic and you only have to do homework every other day so you don't have as much and more gets done.

List out 10 pieces of advice you would give someone on how to create an amazing presentation.

1. Have visuals so that the audience can see a visual form of what you are talking about. 

2. Have transitions between slides to add interest and show that you out time into your presentation. 

3. Have information from a credible source not just anything off the internet.

4. Have short bullets with important information not huge paragraphs that make the audience get bored of reading.

5. Do not stare at the screen and just read your information off, make sure you face the front.

6. Do not let your eyes wander, be sure to look at your audience.

7. Do not fidget or move around too much because that can be distracting.

8. Be sure that the presentation is not too long or too short. Have enough time to give all your information but do not overdue it.

9. Be sure that the people in the back of the room are able to see and hear your presentation.

10. Have pictures to keep the audience interested and not bored.

Tell me about your weekend.

This weekend I did not do much. Friday night I had 3 friends stay the night and we just hung out at my house and watched a movie and ate food. Saturday I took my friends home and then went up to BC to hit and workout for baseball. My friends came back over that night and we went over to another kids house and came home around 12:30. Sunday I had a rec basketball game and we won and then i went to the grocery store with my dad and we got some ingredients and went back home and made a bunch of food. I did homework and then fell asleep.

Tell me about your weekend. Give me a story, something funny that happened, an experiencing you had, the way you felt, etc. Include photos!

This weekend i did not do much. Friday night i had some friends over to sleepover and we just hung out around the house. Saturday I went down to the farm and hunted with my friends and a turkey popped out of the trees and scared us so bad. We tried to shoot it but we couldn't because it flew away. We came back to my house and showered and got changed and then went over to a friends house and came home around 12:30. Sunday i had a rec basketball game and we won by 10 points. I went home and did homework, made dinner and went to bed.

If school had a perfect curriculum it would be classes that prepared everyone for the outside world. Every kid would graduate and all kids would learn about things that will help them in the outside world. The title of the courses would be titled the things that you want your occupation after high school and college to be. You would study about the occupation you want to achieve and work to get better at that occupation every day. You would spend your class time working out problems and learning how to solve real life problems that may occur in that occupation. The ones we have now teach us stuff that we may never ever use again and these courses could actually prepare us for the outside world.
