Once upon a time on the beautiful island of Hawaii, there were people everywhere on resort Namaste. It was a nice and peaceful place, light windy breeze, cool pretty blue water, children playing on the beach and people just relaxing on this nice Thursday. There were other resorts on the island, but Namaste was everyone’s favorite resort. The resort owner, Jack Nelson did everything in his power to make sure his guest was pleased while they stayed at the resort, so his resort could retain the title as the best resort of Hawaii islands. He also had an advantage as to why his resort was the best resort in Hawaii, it’s because he had a lot of friends and favorite guests and they always put the good word in for him. He also had some people who weren’t too fond of him and they tried everything in their power to destroy his business such as…

When you hear the words “Fighting Irish”, what comes to mind? Do you imagine a leprechaun fighting to protect his gold or even Conor Mcgregor fighting Floyd Mayweather. What ever comes to mind, the Fighting Irish is the mascot of one of the greatest colleges in the world-Notre Dame. The year was 1842 when the university of Notre Dame was founded on 1,250 acres of land in Indiana by Edward Sorin. Edward Sorin was a very religious man, so when he established Notre Dame he decided to make a catholic school. And ever since the first days of school to now Notre Dame has taken pride in third catholic beliefs. Notre Dame is a well know college because people can remember them for three reasons. First are the strict demands and requirements to be able to get into Notre Dame. Second is because Notre Dame is home to one of the best college football team in the world. Lastly is because of Notre Dame’s beautiful campus.…
Our Lady of Guadalupe: In legend of Nuestra Se?ora de Guadalupe and in Catholicism we would say Virgin Mary. Our Lady Guadalupe is definitely a part of Raza race history. The Virgin of Guadalupe is literally intertwined with both the History of the Catholic Church in the new world and of Mexico itself. To mention a few events, the great floods of 1629 claimed 30,000 lives and threatened the destruction of the valley of Mexico, until the waters abated when the image was taken in solemn procession from Tepayac to Mexico City.

Reality, truth, and knowledge can only be rationally and logically explained through Biblical Christianity because it gives moral absolutes and a basis to explain these things. While naturalism relies on human reason and experience meaning they determine what is right and wrong, reality, and knowledge by human intuition and experiences in life. Truth and knowledge become relative with the removal of God because they no longer have a standard set and therefore set humanity as there standards. Reality becomes what people perceive it as and it is your responsibility to make something of your life, and you become the focus of everything instead of living your life for God.…
What made Mrs. scardamaglia so special? She cared for her students, by helping us with bullying problems in the school because there was a bully in our class. First whenever there was a problem school related or not she would help us out and bring us to the rug and talk us through it. Also she helped out students if we were stuck on problems during school of for something after school. She also emailed our parents if she was concerned about us or how we're doing in class. Mrs. scardamaglia also taught us in a fun way by, playing games related to the subject like, bingo for math or jeopardy for ELA. She would also come up with songs or fun rhymes related to the subject. Another thing Mrs. scardamaglia did was tell us funny…
Hurricane Andrew was, at the time of its occurrence in August 1992, the costliest hurricane in United States history. The fourth tropical cyclone and the first hurricane of the 1992 Atlantic hurricane season, Andrew originated from a tropical wave over the central Atlantic. Initially, strong wind shear prevented much intensification, though increasingly favorable conditions allowed the system to become a tropical storm on August 17 and a minimal hurricane six days later. After turning westward, Andrew entered a stage of rapid intensification, strengthening into a Category 5 hurricane near the Bahamas on August 23. It briefly weakened to a Category 4 hurricane over the island nation, but regained Category 5 intensity on August 24 before making landfall on Elliott Key and later in Homestead, Florida. Several hours later, the hurricane emerged into the Gulf of Mexico at Category 4 strength as it curved toward the Gulf Coast of the United States. After weakening to a low-end Category 3 hurricane, Andrew moved ashore near Morgan City, Louisiana. Interaction with land hastened the weakening process, and Andrew was downgraded to a tropical depression by August 27 while crossing Mississippi. The next day, the storm merged with a frontal system over the southern Appalachian Mountains.…
Shoemaker’s class I had recess. Since my friends and I usually didn’t get down to the gym fast enough, we didn’t always get a ball to mess around with. So we instead decided to stay in her class during that time. We had loads of fun creating memories upon memories that will never be forgotten. Memories like when we put on impaired driving goggles and stumbled over everything. Memories of us eating all her yummy peanut butter filled pretzels and asking for help on assignments. I had grammar with a different teacher but if I did not understand something, I would ask Mrs. Shoemaker. She would always explain the homework to me. Also, if I had to write an essay she would help me and then look over it for mistakes. Making me a stronger person today, Mrs. Shoemaker never let me give…
After completion of fourth grade at another local Catholic school, my parents made the decision to switch me over to Blessed Sacrament for a more challenging, educational, and dedicated learning environment. Since joining Blessed Sacrament School, I have practically made honor roll every quarter. My favorite subject is Religion, in which I acquire an A every quarter. From a very early age, my parents…
Although this did happen, it was not in the way they expected. They believed that someone, the Messiah (“the Hebrew word ‘Messiah’ means an anointed person or thing” ), would come and be their king and take them away from Roman rule and, as a result, bring Israel together. One of the many verses that the Jewish were basing their expectations of the messiah on was, “your house and your kingdom shall be made sure for ever before me; your throne shall be established for ever.” (2 Samuel 7:16). This can give the impression that a king would be sent from God who was like David: a king that would lead them, that they could follow, and enter the kingdom of God. They waited for the “Kingdom of God as employed by Jesus signified God’s victory over the…
As I entered first grade in Religious Education, the smile on her face told me that this was going to be fun and exciting. The teacher seemed happy and comfortable to have me as her student. All of the other kids came in, introducing ourselves to the teacher and talking about our summer. The room was small, but was enough for her to teach. The first day of school began and ended with a treat she brought for us. Since the start, I knew that I would get along with her just fine…
My last year at Episcopal Day School has been amazing. My 8th grade year has been so much fun. My entire grade has really come together as a family and become extremely close. We have taken many extremely fun field trips. We are going on an extremely exciting trip to the Keys and I can’t wait. I have learned so much over this past year.…
Memorable teachers are not the ones, who are the most pleasant to their students, but they are not the toughest ones either, they are the one that make you work for your knowledge, and you appreciate it, naturally much later in life. Mrs. Wright was very kind, compassionate, and honest no matter what the subject was or how she thought we were doing in school. She would always search for ways on how someone could improve. She has the skills to make you want to perform better, and continuously work to improve. This teacher had the passion to teach, and loved working with students, wonderful and necessary qualities to hold. She was eager to do whatever it took for a student to be successful, and to succeed in his or her classes. She always had a positive attitude, and strived for success. She would always say hello, ask about your day, tell you to have a wonderful day no matter what the day bring or crosses your path. She knew, and learn quickly that I have test anxiety, knew I always studied for hours on end, knew I knew the answers too, but once a test was placed before me, my mind would go blank, still does to a degree. She taught me some great testing strategies, ones that I still use day. This teacher was very inspirational, and gave you the courage to strive for success. Something I hope to match in my teaching…
In conclusion, I persuade you, administrators, to establish a good relationship not only with the children and parents, but also with the community and workers. Leadership becomes more essential in order to cultivate a school culture whose primary focus is on the learning and achievement of each and every student. Each day we are afforded an opportunity to make a positive difference in the lives of our students through our role as education…
I have been at since 3rd grade. Ever since I was 8 years old I remember that time when the older kids came and sold those delicious suckers. Then in 4th grade I remember when we had the Halloween Hoot it was so much fun I saw Student Council helping out. That was the best time I ever had at that school in my whole experience.…
