School Retrofits Go Green
Old schools under go green makeovers aimed at student health and financial savings. By: James Daly
What did I learn? That the school district or that the state do not provide funds for schools to go green. Also, that schools are not only going to save the earth, but they are saving money for school, and the students will learn about the global warming crisis. Also, the cost of the retrofit change is so expensive, but the positive outcome for schools is that in the long run they will recoup the money invested. Another thing that I learned is that theres a website for schools to present theri go green ideas to get fund money to start a good project.
What else do I want to learn? Is hwo do students do biodiesel fuel from using the left over cooking oil from the cafeteria. Also, I would like to learn how do teachers and students that changed the regular light bulb to the fluorescent save money. I would like to know the difference of this two different bulbs.

Students and Parents: School on a Mission
The commitmet required to attend YES Prep demands familial support for its students. By: Grace Rubenstein
What did I learn? That education for many students including me takes a-lot of sacrifices, time, demands, and determination. In this case, families coming as immigrants see it as a mission to suceed in here especially since their parents and relatives sometimes don't have good jobs. It is also too much work, self-doubt, and a-lot of expectations. But, at the end ,our goal is to complete and graduate from college to have a better life in America.
What else would I like to learn? What type of curriculum do teachers use. Where YES Prep is located, and how much does the school charge and if it's a public school or if it's a private school. I also want to know if YES Prep has a website to visit its home page. Also, I would like to know if this YES Prep is more of a coummunity school where teachers and students know each other. I would also like to know if this school uses technology.
