The usage of social media in our school

How many of you follow a teacher, coach, or anything related to school on social media? Beaver local has many teachers and staff who use social media to advertise events. I follow teachers such as Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Lowe and I follow the beaver local school page. Beaver local is a school that is using the thing we know so much about, such as technology social media, and sending reminders to us by using remind. The staff members here are so involved with the students and are willing to help them succeed. The amount of teachers who use social media or remind is increasing over the years. There are teachers who are using it for multiple reasons, for class and if they are a coach.I asked Mrs. Speese if she thought using remind was helpful reminding the students of their homework?She answered “ it helps in three way one it sends messages to students about when things are due, second parents can join to help the kids stay in track, and the third thing is you can private message your teacher without having their number.”There are schools and people out there who think we use it to much. I thought the same thing but now it just makes some things easier, but then in times it is not the best thing in the world because it would be better to have books. Let’s see how many people read this and think wow social media is not all that bad.

 

 

Demolition of the Basball and Softball fields

Just to clear up some of the questions that people are asking about the baseball and softball fields I decided to go to the sports director, Mr.Prescott. He explained that “ It was required for the school to have all of the athletic field on campus. So due to that recommendation the baseball and softball fields went where the old middle school was.” I asked what was the problem with the fields? He said,” When they started building the fields there were some community members brought to the attention that things were not safe, so we went and looked at the situation and have had a meeting where all of the parents, community members,teachers, and staff worked together.” I asked what was going to happen because of it? He stated,” we Decided it would be best to dig up the in field and replace it with new material, now they are looking at the fence.” I hope this clears up some of the questions. I want to give a big thanks to Mr.Prescott

 

The question

So I had a little kid walk up to me yesterday night. She asked me,” Why do parents take her candy and look through it?” I didn’t know what to say, was I supposed to tell her it is to make sure none of it was open because they were scared of someone putting something in it, or was I supposed to say they wanted to see if it was expired? I didn’t know what to say at first but after I thought about it I wasn’t going to lie to her. So I told her my parents took it to make sure none of was open. I asked her ,” do you know the word drugs and what in means?” She explained to me, “ ya I know what that is, they can hurt people.” I said,” Okay, so they take it to make sure you will be ok.” She smiled and said,” Oh okay.” I just looked at my mom and asked her what has this world come to? At school teachers tell us not to do drugs but they don’t see what goes on behind there backs. I know of people who come to school with a high. But know one sees it. I feel the school should random drug test us because it isn’t ok to have that kind of thing in school.
