Dinner and Some Movies
Jan. 23, 2013—This weekend was a long weekend in observance on MLK Day. Monday was fully programmed with optional activities in observance of the holiday.

High Poverty Youth Class
Dec. 17, 2012—This semester I chose to take an Peabody HOD class called High Poverty Youth. This class focused on the difficulties of living in poverty, and how society could address it. Since it is a Peabody course, there was also an emphasis on teaching these students and making sure that your classroom is accommodating to the...
