We were blessed with five guest from different countries. We were blessed by people from Egypt, Rosseta, Jordon, Malaysia, Algeria. They were teachers all english teachers. While they were here they just got a basic input on what we do here and how we live and learn. We also had the oppurtunity to ask them questions about the places they were from and and get the basic foundation of their cultures and their learning engagements.
After our discussion we had a chance to take them to our main projects and give them a little insight on how we learn. They got to sit in these rooms and interact with the students for about 20 minutes. Once their twenty minutes were up we gave them a tour through our school so they get to see our enviroment. In the afternoon the tour guides had a chance to sit and talk to them on a one on one bases as they ate lunch. When lunch was over unfortunately we had to say good bye to our visitors.

For my first day of high school it was different than any other first day of school i have ever had. We had to arrive at 7:00 am that was very different for me, but that wasn't even the beginning of the day. It all started when we had to march down the street holding up signs that represented our continents. People that drove pass us beeped horns and smiled at us like they were supporting us as a black community. When we approached the school building there were a lot of cameras and business people there to see us arrive.
While we were standing in front of our new school, Mayor John Street was giving us a productive speech about our education. Then we cut the big ribbon and entered the new School of the Future. When we got in the building we were directed straight to the gymnasium. I was so shocked, i started crying and jumping around. The most spiritual part was when we song the school song and everyone jumped up and started clapping faces lit up, that made me even happier that day.
When we were dismissed we were taken to our classrooms. I had never been in a clean and brand new classroom before, and to think that it would be in that class for four years. In the classroom we talked about our expectations of our new school. At that time I only new about three people so i didn't really have anything to say, but we introduced ourselves and got to know everybody. If i didn't know anything else i knew that i had a wonderful teacher.
As the day went on we had lunch with our fiends and family, had a pep-rally with the eagles,76ers, and the Phillie's mascots, and to end the day off we planted a tree in the front of the school and looked at the rock that had "School of the Future 2010" engraved in it to represent the first class of the new school.
That was my most favorite first day of school i have ever had in my many years of attending a new school. Right now i must say that i really enjoy this school and i appreciate having a good opportunity of attending this school. Now, i know everyone in my class and i like many of the students that are around me. I am so glad that came to High School of the Future.

Hello i am a student at high school of the future and i am in the 9th grade. Today in history class my fellow students and i watched a movie called Journey of a Man. The movie was very deep and i find it very cool how the Bible may teach you one thing about how humans came about this earth and, when you go to school you learn other wise. The movie explamed to me how man came from a ape and that long ago we had no sex. We all came from Africa and then movie on in groups from place to place. DNA is very powerful ! My only question is if the world could see this tap do you think racism wouldnt be any longer ?

Hayley Bester sounds like she is an interesting person to learn about. When she was writing about what makes a good leader I thought back on what I wrote about. She started to talk about how it matters what people thinks about not what she thinks. She takes the time to listen an to learn about what other people have to say and get more an exciting things to come up with to make a good leader.

Oh no i just did my member story and i was on the last question when all of my stuff was deleted because my computer needed to be charged. Man i was mad cause i wrote alot for nothing.

The person I read about was very inspiring.
She was inspiring because she inspired me
by telling me in her member story all
the diffrent places she went,and visited,and even
lived at once.She i from vietnam,and I think that's
pretty amazing that her life can be so interesting.I
wish my life was more interesting like her life, well
my life might be someday!!!!

In this project I learned more about a girl named HayleyBester who lives in Launceston,Tasmania, thats located in Australia.About her, I learnd what languages she speaks and that she cares about the area she lives in. I also learnd that when she grows up she wants to do something that involved in local development.

I was reading Haylz Bester [from Australia] member story and in it she spoke about a couple of international issues. Like how in aulstralla 1out of every 5 kids or teens suffer from depression every year. I was not aware of that happing.
