Today is March 10th and it is the 6th day of my intersession Operation Peace Love and Harmony. Today is our last day of field trips and we are going to Gompers middle school. The first thing we did was make binders for the kids in Gompers as a gift when we get there.
When we got there we first went to the library so a teacher named pete and some asb students would go over some of the history of Gompers middle. We saw videos of the changes the school was making over time. Five years ago Gompers asked the school district if they could become a charter school. they declined and fired the best principal the school has had named Vincent Riveroll. After this incident there was a girl in the 9th grade that stood in front of the whole school district to convince them to hire back Mr. Riveroll and to make the school charter.... and it worked thats when the the plan no child left behind was organized.
Next we went into a 6th grade class to see how the teacher teaches and we ate lunch with the students then played soccer with them. of course they won but only by a point so we did pretty good. next we made two huge sign that have both our schoold names and we left little notes to one another. that was our day
