= Safe School 10 / 21 / 11 = = 1) What it means to have a safe school? = = A safe school is when you don't have to get wanded because someone thinks that you have a weapon or drug on you or in your bookbag. Also a safe school is when you could just leave your stuff in a class room, and not think that someone will try to steal it if the teacher doesn't lock the door. Last but not least a safe school is when you don't have to have security guards watch the hallways.  = = 2) What can you do to help? = = I can always breakup fights and try to talk people down if they are trying to fight and i can also try to convince people that we can be good students if the school gives us a chance to be that. = =  3) I do think wilkinsburg is a safe school in its own way. Wilkinsburg takes the pre-cautions to make this school a safe school with medal detectors and security guards, they known how wilkinsburg is and some kids might have problems at home and might make a bad choice and they take the cautions to have a safe schol for the student is wilkinsburg high school. = = = = Michael jackson: an inspiration 10/24/11 = =Michael Joseph Jackson, born August 29,1958 was the best entertainer of all times. He was a contribution to music, dance, and fashion. He was also known as king of pop and he has had 750 million records worldwide. Also apart of jackson5 he was the seventh child of the jackson family and he was the lead singer of the jackson 5 group but eventually he went solo in 1971 to become the person he was. = = = = Drug-Free 10/26/11 =

= //**Graduation Speaker: Bruno Mars**// =

=
//**Peter Gene Hernandez also know as bruno mars should speak at the graduation because everyone knows his songs because he has partnered up with everybody in the music industry and he is a positive role model unlike Eminem and Wiz Khalifa. Bruno Mars graduated from President Theodore Roosevelt High School so he can talk about when you graduate how the real world is and he wont be high when he is saying it like Eminem and Wiz Khalifa and he is a role model for going through the hard things because when he didnt get a record deal for Motown he kept trying and trying and he was able to get a record deal with Alantic records when he found Philip Lawerence to help him produce his songs and he was half manger and producer. So he is a really good role model because he graduated and he is a reallly good person and he could really show them how to be positive to life.**// =====

As my mother was getting eady to go,she was a leaf for halloween, i was down stairs putting in my fang and getting my candy bag (pillow case) ready to go when my mom walked down the steps the ring of the trick or treating time to start ran and i ran out thedoor like i was getting chased by Freddy Coger. My first 20 houses was a breeze trick or treat put the candy in the bag and say thank you but the 21 house was the one i was scaptical about this house was like going to the scare house on the porch there was blood scattered all over the windows the porch had fog all on the floor and you couldnt see what you was walking on in the back corner there was a person dress as michael myers i dont know if it was a dummy but it was scary also there was jason and freddy coger it was as if they were having a dinner party. There was cob webs, spider, and all the other scary things on halloween but the thing that creeped me out the most was the yard it was like and entranc to a cemetary off of movies it had coffins and dead people laying on the ground and broking up tombstones. I walked up =====

The ultimate field trip
The best place to go for a field trip in school is Unversal Studios. It is the best placd to go when you are in school because it can show you the magic of movie making why you are having fun so it is fun and learning all at the same time.They would like this because everybody loves tv and movies, and that is what Unversal Studios is all about.

Unversal Studios is the best it shows you how movies is made and having fun at the same time because why you are learning about the movie spiderman and how they use charicterzation and character traits of the story line you could be on a ride through a spiderman movie.

The Game 11/7/11 This morning i was talking to my mom about should i wear steelers or baltimore ravens colors and this is how it went. " Mom did you know that the steelers lost to the ravens last night?" "23-20 they were winning but the ravens got a touchdown in the last 8 seconds and that made them go up to 23," she said from the computer room. "Should i wear a ravens jersey or a steelers jersey." "Steelers jersey," she didnt hesitate to say. "But they didnt win so why would i support them if they didnt win i should support the ravens dont you think?" "No if you like the steelers then represent the steelers" "Nevermind i will just wear regular clothes" "Then why you ask me for my opinion if you wasnt going to use it!" "Just forget about it." "ok and it is almost time for you to go to school." "Okey Dokey."

**Bullying Problem:Not solved** ** Just because a NFL superstar football player goes to help people with bully that doesnt mean he is going to change peoples mind about bullying other people,and it doesnt make bullied people stand up and make a confession. ** ** Why do people always think just beacuse a NFL superstar shows up that doesnt mean people are going to stop bullying people because bulling is about peoples low self-esteem and if you just say stop bullying that isnt going to change the inside of the bullies mental feelings it is like an enternal and external conflict all in once. ** ** Even though bullying is a problem in the world people cant really change it because the mental and physical emotion of it in people. **
 * Also bullying is not solved because the bullied people doesnt confess to what the bully had done because they are still afraid of what the bully had done to them mentally and physically, and what if the bully told them that if they told someone they would kill them so you really cant get the truth about the bullied person so it still wouldnt change the bully. **

**Why fire Joe Paterno?** **Dear Penn state adminstrative office** **I have heard on the news about the case of Jerry Sandusky and i think you had made a mistake in firing Joe paterno. He had done his job by telling his boss about Jerry Sandusky doing bad things to those kids and his boss should of went to the police even though Joe could of went to the police he still told somebody and that was up to the person he told to go to the police but that person didnt so Joe shouldnt have got fired.** **I love Penn State and when i go to college i would like to enroll in Penn State but i dont think i can go to that school until Joe is back as a coach on the football team.** **i suggest you rehire Joe Paterno and look deeper into the investigation of the person Joe told and this will fix more things also with the riots of the students so the students will be more settled and have peace with your decision.** **Sincerely,** **Alexus Mackson**
