Digital Seahawk

On September 11, 2001 I was working in the Computer Lab Room 212 when one of my colleagues knocked on the door and said that a plane had just hit one of the twin towers of the World Trade Center. As news came in throughout the day I would learn of the terrorist attack and the many people who perished in New York, Washington D.C. and a field in Pennsylvania. I remember being in sort of a daze because it was so unbelievable that this awful attack happened on U.S. soil.

You were very young on 9/11/01. What have you learned in school or at home about this event? Have members of your family or teachers talked about it with you? What have they said? What do you know about the events that occurred on September 11, 2001? Do you think it is important that we remember this day? Why or Why not?

Please submit a publishable comment.

When I was in elementary school, especially in 7th and 8th grades, all I could think about was getting to high school! What do you think of when you think of high school? What do you think it will be like? What kinds of things would you like to do during your high school years? Do you already have a high school in mind?

Please submit a comment that expresses your ideas about high school. This comment should be at least one paragraph long.

I am very excited to be working with the middle school this year. We will begin with using word processing applications. This will build the foundation and improve your skills with creating documents for assignments that you may receive in reading, writing, social studies, and science classes. We will discuss formatting and grammar rules. We will also work on saving documents and submitting them to teachers electronically through e-mail. Please go to the Middle School Software Application Survey 2011 and complete it honestly and accurately.

Thank you!
