After a lot of hard work, we finished writing the ABCs when we wrote the letter “Nn”. We have continued writing simple words as well as our first names. We have worked hard to do our best when we write.

On May 27th, Pre-K 4 planned a day of fun in the sun at Flushing Meadow Park Queens Zoo. But God had another plan and we were rained out!

On Friday May 29th, we had an in-class dinosaur egg hunt. Each child had 3 eggs with their names on, and inside each egg there was a dinosaur. (Do you know how hard it is to find dinosaur eggs these days?) On Monday June 1st we had Dinosaur Day in Pre-K 4. Working in teams the children painted giant dinosaurs. And did a great job! They are on display in the class and will remain up all summer.

Challenges, over coming obstacles, personal satisfaction, taking it to the limit all apply to the end of another school year. But this year 54 high school students took it to another level when they completed the Alley Pond Park Adventure Course. These students worked as a team to complete challenges and spent the afternoon 35 to 40 feet in the air climbing walls, walking across cables, and jumping off utility poles. Many did not think they could complete the task, but with persistence and a lot of encouragement from their friends they did. They had a great time trying and came away with a sense that they could do anything. Sometimes class can feel like that cable 35 feet in the air. But this year students worked hard, persevered in their studies, and completed the course with a job well done.

Forensics Class has been working on a Blood Splatter Lab. Each student created his or her own patterns of synthetic blood splatters. They were able to identify the types of splatters and measure the blood splats in cm.

High school was able to learn the ever popular Adobe Photoshop in the fourth quarter. They were taught the basics of the photo editing program to prepare them for next year when many of the computer lab classes will focus on learning this important skill. Each computer has Adobe Photoshop CS2 installed on it, which we are very blessed to have such an advanced program.

As the year ended, the students in computer lab mastered one last part of technology. The students learned how to use Microsoft Publisher 2007. Microsoft Publisher is a program where you can make greeting cards, signs, and more. Some of the middle school students even got the privilege of making cards for their mom’s to celebrate mothers day last month.
