Coming Together

Posted by Terrance Oliveri-Wiliams in American History - Herman on
Group of friends volunteering to do community service. Back some time lat year, but i thought it was great because it was early saturday morning, in the summer. Not may kids would do that, and I think we as Americans also do things for other countries that may not have been expected or is necessary for either party. But we still do it.

Posted by Sunil Reddy on
​Monday, 9/26 is Picture Day for all 9-11th grade students. Students will sit for their photos with Moffa Photography by streamed classes, as indicated on the schedule below. On September 12, picture order forms were distributed in Advisories; our photographer's policy asks that students bring these forms to their sitting, even if pictures are not being purchased.

Say "cheese" and smile!

I'm from - Allen Yang

​I’m from a rather different ethnic background
I’m from a different past
From my parents of whom were born
From the “homeland”, thousands of miles distant

From the old past
To the newer beginning, and the many years
From now, looking back
To the future of tomorrow?

I’m from the beat of dribbling at the recess yard
I’m from the sound of rapid footsteps
and the scream of “You’re it!”
From the exploration of restricted school premises

From the All City Orchestra...
I’m from Generation Y.

I am From

Posted by Matthew Ginnetti in English 3 - Rami on
I am from the parks,

From Citizens Bank Park and the Spectrum.

I am from the stoop sitting neighborhood.


I am from the parks,

The football

whose grass stained tackles I could taste.


I am from my friends,

From the trust worthy I got your back people.

Im from the no strings attached,

from the serious.


I am from the un-diverse neighborhood,

The cold winters, hot summers,

friends right around he corner neighborhood,


I am from the inspired,

the hardworking,

the gifted.
