Should Fenger High School parents step up instead of suing CPS for Derrion
2009-11-18 10:21:00
Rhaea Albert, at a neighborhood gathering on violence, weeps for her 16-year-old brother, Derrion Albert, who was beaten to death Thursday, Sept. 24. (Tribune photo by Terrence Antonio James / September 28, 2009) Part 1: The Emotion   There's a photo of Rhaea Albert in the December 2009/January 2010 issue of Ebony magazine taken by The Chicago Tribune's photographer Terrence Antonio James. It's a photo of Derrion Albert's little sister with tears streaming down her face (similar to the photo in this blog) but closer up, and it reminds me of the reaction one of my cousins had when one of her twin brothers was killed in their neighborhood. Just like parents say they should never die before their...
My Experience as "Principal for a Day" at Fenger High School
2009-10-30 23:02:00
If you follow me on twitter (click here to follow if don't), you are probably used to seeing the behind the scenes craziness of my life, as I explore the beauty of Chicago's character, art, entertainment & cultural scene. But no matter how random, I am sure like most, you were not expecting to see me as "Principal for a Day" at the much talked about Chicago Public School, Fenger. I first heard about Fenger when I was being interviewed live on cnn from Copenhagen on oct. 3rd about the olympic decision... as I was being patched in live via skyp from my hotel room, waiting to go on, I could shockingly hear in the background that there was...
Recall issued for high school students who read 'Soul on Ice'
2009-10-29 04:07:00
The American Association of High School Principals and Administrators has issued a recall on students who read the late Black Panther activist Eldridge Cleaver's Soul on Ice, a book that chronicled black rage in the 1960s. High school students who were assigned Soul on Ice from its publication in 1968 until Cleaver's repudiation of his Black Panther past in 1975 may contain a dormant ideology that could erupt at any time, according to Dante Van Cleave, an association spokesman....

Chicago Public high school fight brings back memories of past rival high sc
2009-10-06 17:46:00
As much as I wish Chicago Tribune reporters Azam Ahmed, Kristen Mack and Annie Sweeney didn't have to report on stories like "Fenger kids tell why they fight" and that the Derrion Albert murder hadn't occurred altogether, I think it's a step in the right direction to let these kids speak up. This article gave these kids the opportunity to tell their side instead of the police brushing it off as "gang related." Fenger student Vashion Bullock's question, "How many times you want me to walk away? We've been running for so long and we're tired of running" struck a chord. But it was one sentence on the second page that really brought back my own high school memories:...

For those not already in the know (this reviewer included), The Blues and Royals (Royal Horse Guards and 1st Dragoons) is a “cavalry regiment of the British Army, part of the Household Cavalry.” At least that’s what wikipedia has to offer us on the subject. As a group The Blues And Royals go back almost ...

Up to 94% of teens leave Church after high school
2009-08-01 11:35:00
Great news! "Studies show between 64 and 94 percent of Christian teens leave the Church within a few years of graduating high school." Says, who?  A bunch of atheists?  No. The Church Communication Network ("CCN") says so, in this press release. The real question, here, is:  What's wrong with the other 6% of Christian young people, that they don't see the light? In response to having the vast majority of their flock waking up and leaving the church, shortly after graduating from high school, CCN, a satellite and internet provider of training and ministry content to churches, and Focus on the Family, the ultra-conservative religious organization based in Colorado Springs, are holding a "Christian apologetics" seminar for teens called Big Dig, later this month, to try...

Sherman challenges $350 high school driver's ed fee
2009-07-04 11:40:00
I've gone to court to challenge the constitutionality of Buffalo Grove High School's $350 driver's ed fee.  My daughter, Dawn, was required to pay that fee in order to enroll in the Behind-the-Wheel portion of driver's ed.  There is no fee for the classroom portion. My claim is that the fee violates the Illinois Constitution's provision that public education, through high school, shall be free.  The Illinois Supreme Court ruled, in a case dating back to 1925, that free education means that instruction in the subjects taught, without a tuition charge, constitutes free public schools, and that parents who can afford it can be asked to pay for materials, such as gym uniforms, towel rentals and workbooks. The defendants in the lawsuit are...

Yuri Manga: High School Girls, Volume 9 (English)
2009-06-24 22:43:00
Behind the premise of High School Girls, Volume 9 runs a strong feeling of nostalgia for the bygone days of youth. "Time Stopped at Age Seventeen" screams one header prominently, which immediately causes me to cringe with a feeling of horror crawling up my spine. It wasn't that my high school years were bad - far from it, I had a great time. However, there is NOTHING that would ever be incentive enough for me to want to have that time extended by a single second. lolNot so for Eriko or the other girls in the Idiot group, each one of which is determined to wring as much fun from the rag of life as they can. And I approve. What the hell good is being 17 if you're not going off and doing incredibly dumb things that must be fun because everyone tells you so? Heck, what's the good of life at all if you're not having fun doing dumb things? When was the last time you did something fun and dumb? Anyway, the trip to Okinawa draws to a close and everyone on the trip is as annoying as pos...
Proposed Sherman Alexie Book-Ban in Chicago Suburban High School
2009-06-22 20:27:00
Chicago Tribune reports today that parents in the Chicago suburb of Antioch would like Sherman Alexie's National Book Award-winning book, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, banned from freshman students' summer reading lists. The novel tells the story of a 14-year-old Native American boy who leaves his school on a Washington reservation, attends an all-white high school, and: ...faces many of the same challenges the incoming freshmen will face when they start school in the fall, said John Whitehurst, chairman of the English department at Antioch High School.The book sounds like the perfect story for a freshman reading list by most accounts. One might think so, anyway. But, and this is a big but, some parents are not...

How To Prepare for A Chamberlain High School Reunion. Or Not.
2009-05-25 20:23:00
“To thine own self be true. And it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.” Sometimes, I’m sure my mother wishes she didn’t stress the importance of that famous Shakespearean quote. Or maybe she wishes sometimes that I didn’t take it to heart so completely. But she did. And so I did. And the rest is history. Which leads to this upcoming weekend and what Cathy so lovingly refers to as: The Cancer Golf Party. At first, I wasn’t going to go. Although I’ve donated to the cause before, my closest friends were supposed to be off having a baby, traveling to Aruba, unable to make the trip, or simply not interested. I didn’t feel like going alone. Talking to one girl who couldn’t make the trip, we’ll call her Sarah, I joked and said I’d go only to make one of my silly videos. Sarah got an idea. “Why don’t you make a video ahead of time to get more people interested in coming?” she asked. I declined. Several times. The peop...

Sickles High School in Trouble for Crotch Shot Photo
2009-05-15 02:35:00
Another Sickles’ goof or goof-up? When I first heard about the bare vagina on display in the pages of Sickles High School’s 2009 yearbook, I laughed out loud. One of those deep belly laughs that last for five minutes. My tongue hangs out. I grab my sides. The works. I could just picture the yearbook advisor catching shit. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. Oh yes. Another grand example of a Tampa teacher’s piss-poor judgment. Funny stuff. Suddenly, I stopped laughing. A sixteen year-old had posed for a club picture without underwear and her hoo-ha was on display for the world to see. That’s what I’d been told. Who in their right mind would greenlight such a spread? Why would someone in the district support distributing the yearbook and suggest the Sickles junior “laugh it off?” A few years ago, someone spotted a kid with the word “Fuck” on his shirt in a Sickles yearbook. Administrators went apeshit and demanded final s...

What have you been doing high school? Answers may vary depending upon whom this question is asked. As for me, in high school I have been learning that was enough to live a successful was and good life. I also have been making friends who were to follow me all my life wherever I happened to be. Which is why I become my old self when ever I get together with my old buddies in high school reunions or else where. If you have been missing your old friends, try and find them. They are a life long joy and treasure to cherish.

The Big Cram for Hunter High School By JAVIER C. HERNANDEZ
2009-01-07 05:56:00
Reprinted fromThe New York Times, January 2, 2009While their friends played video games in pajamas or vacationed in the tropics, a dozen sixth graders spent winter break at Elite Academy in Flushing, Queens, memorizing word roots. Time was ticking as they prepared to face the thing they had talked about, dreamed about and lost sleep over for much of the past year: the Hunter College High School admissions exam, a strenuous three-hour test that weeds out about 90 percent of those who take it.On Wednesday, the final day of test-prep boot camp before the Jan. 9 exam, there seemed to be nothing more terrifying to these 11-year-olds than the risk of failure.Some had taken up coffee; others, crossword puzzles and cable news shows to glean vocabulary words. A few of their parents had hired private tutors and imposed strict study hours, and several had paid up to $3,000 for a few months of English and math classes at Elite, a regimen modeled on the cram schools of South Korea, China and Jap...
