spring 2013...The great southern cook-off!
This year's version of the cook-off was a down-home success as students from the Humanities classes celebrated the end of the To Kill A Mockingbird unit by creating Southern-inspired dishes and sharing them with the class. Who could forget the savory delights of roasted okra, cornbread and Cajun chicken? Once we whet our whistle with home-brewed sweet iced-tea, it was time for the dessert courses of Alabama Lane Cake, peach cobbler and the delectable Banana Foster! Bon appetit, block 1-2!
JUne 2013...
In preparation for our biennial trip to The Oregon Shakespeare Festival, we were lucky enough to welcome Mr. Christopher Gaze, artistic director of Vancouver's Bard on the Beach festival into our classroom to conduct a workshop on King Lear.
