<b><i><u><br /></u></i></b>
<b><i><u><br /></u></i></b>
For centuries, the education system has been structured around the pen-and-paper method. Without a doubt this pen-and-paper system has worked for generations and we've seen many succeed utilizing it. Many scientists, chemists, and inventors such as Albert Einstein, Thomas Edison ,James Watson, etc invented and developed great innovations without much technology. But as time progresses, schools around the world are increasingly moving to provide students with their personal devices such a tablet, iPad, and even laptops.<br />
<br />
A question that is often pondered on by many is how can education utilize technology without eliminating the old-fashion way of learning? In my opinion, technology has overtaken the pen-and-paper method by a distance. For example, my young sister does all her homework and even math problems on her iPad her school has provided for her. Growing up, I had never imagined that it would be possible for our modern students to complete their math homework using technology.<br />
<br />
Many benefits of using technology in our modern education is that it allows teachers to develop more lessons granting students the ability to learn at their own pace. Empowering students to perform more complex and creative work, improving communications among students, teachers, and parents, helping students become technologically advanced. In rapidly developing world, technology is serving each and one of us well!<br />

The ranking places Chicago just before San Francisco, CA, and behind New York, NY. For our readers who are not familiar with the Windy City, there are endless opportunities to get the full Chicago immersion experience, but I'll fill you in on some of my favorite places in this beautiful city.<br />
Chicago is the third most populated city in the U.S. It is renowned for its culture in the performing arts, its cultivation of classical music, and its popular culinary dishes such as the Chicago-style hot dog and deep-dish pizza. Chicago attracts more than 40 million visitors annually. With endless sites to see and activities to do, this beautiful city is a tourist hub. The perfect time of the year to visit Chicago is the summertime when the weather is warm and sunny, which we will hopefully be seeing soon! Whether travelling alone, with the family, a group of friends, or significant other, visitors are guaranteed to have a memorable vacation. There are a number of hotels in the city, but the prime location to stay for a three- or four-day planned weekend trip would be somewhere along the Magnificent Mile. It is adjacent to downtown and is located one block east of Rush Street, which is infamous for its nightlife scene. When visiting Chicago, shopping along the mile-long strip of various mid-range and high-end retail shops, restaurants, and museums is a must-do. One can view some of the tallest buildings in the U.S. with gorgeous architecture, when walking from store to store, such as the John Hancock Center and the Trump International Hotel and Tower.<br />
After a long day of shopping, the next destination to go to is Navy Pier. The 3,300-foot long pier along the shoreline of Lake Michigan offers numerous activities such as riding the 150-foot Ferris wheel, playing 18 holes of mini-golf, seeing a Shakespeare play, and sharing a bag of cinnamon almonds with friends while viewing a fireworks show. Visiting Navy Pier would be the best way to end a night out in Chicago.<br />
The next day calls for a trip to the beloved Shedd Aquarium which is also located along the Lake Michigan shoreline. The Shedd is the largest indoor aquarium in the world and is home to more than 8,000 aquatic animals and 1,500 different species consisting of fish, marine mammals, birds, snakes, amphibians, and insects from across the globe. The aquarium offers several different exhibits and presentations to its visitors. Some of the permanent exhibits include the Waters of the World, which features exhibits on oceans, rivers, islands and lakes, and the species they are home to, as well as the Caribbean Reef exhibit which features a diver that interacts with the animals in a circular tank while talking to the aquarium’s visitors. One of the current special exhibits is the Jellies exhibit. The Jellies is extremely popular because it features the many different species of jelly fish from around the world.<br />
After visiting the Shedd, a stroll through Millennium Park would be another fun activity to enjoy the summer sun. Millennium Park is a public park that is located in the heart of the city. It features a variety of gardens and public art which includes the infamous “Bean”, also known as Cloud Gate. The Bean is a three-story reflective, steel sculpture in the shape of a legume that was created by world-renowned artist, Anish Kapoor, and was inspired by liquid mercury. Its mirror-like surface reflects and distorts the vast skyline of Chicago as well as the numerous visitors it attracts. Taking a “selfie” of yourself with the Bean is definitely required to commemorate your trip.<br />
After a long day at the Shedd Aquarium and Millennium Park, a visit to the Willis Tower Skydeck is a must. Willis Tower, formerly known as the Sears Tower and one of the tallest buildings in the world, is a 108-story, 1451-foot skyscraper. On the 103rd floor of the building is the Skydeck, an observation deck which features The Ledge, a glass balcony that extends four feet outside the floor that towers over the scenic city. It is most beautiful at night, when looking out at all of the luminescent buildings that stretch for miles and miles. It would be the perfect end to a vacation in Chicago to reminisce over the lasting memories made. Those are just some of the many attractions that Chicago has to offer, so multiple trips back would be the best way to carry on the fun that the cultural traditions of the city provides its visitors.<br />

It has been ranked by UNESCO and the World Forum as being the worst in the Central American and Caribbean region. The biggest issue and reasoning behind the extremely poor ranking is the lack of funding. Spending on education is 1.9 percent of GDP, which according to Law 66-97 is really<br />
supposed to be allocated to four percent. That definitely shows that education is not the government's top priority, despite all the protests and demands from the public.<br />
To make matters worse, children of Haitian descent that were born in the Dominican Republic are not allowed to attend school. Numerous amounts of families with school-age children are being turned down following a court rule that is stripping people of their citizenship. Due to the court rule, children are dropping out of school, losing their scholarships, or being forced into child labor. This is a clear violation of human rights and is affecting thousands of people. Human rights groups say that "roughly 200,000 people could be affected, while the government put the number at 13,000 people", according to a compiled report made by researchers at the Human Rights Institute at Georgetown University. The Dominican government is leaving people behind and should not deny children the right to an education, especially if they are natural-born citizens with a Haitian ancestry. They are being denied the basic documents of identification or are having their documents taken by the government despite being born there.<br />
According to the constitution of the Dominican Republic, everyone has the right to an education, including those without the proper documentation. The reason it became an issue, is that proof of citizenship is required before taking national exams. Some generous teachers and administrators may overlook the lack of proper documents to help advocate for their students. There is an "estimated 48,000 children who lack identification documents" that are enrolled in primary school, taken by the Ministry of Education. Representatives from the government of Haiti and the Dominican Republic are meeting to discuss the issue, and will hopefully find a solution as soon as possible because no child should be denied the right to an education anywhere.<br />

After viewing the film, <i>The Class</i>, which is also known by its original French title as, <i>Entre les murs</i>, which literally translates to "Between the walls", I was reminded about the constant struggle of learning in the classroom during those terrible middle-school days. The film is about the experiences of a French middle-school teacher, illuminating his efforts with a select few "problem children" who cause trouble in his classroom.<br />
A majority of the students in the Femi Memorial Outreach after-school program are of middle-school age, and so the first similarity I noted was that the classroom in France is the same as it is in the U.S. Both countries have a teacher instructing a class size of about twenty-five students with a primary focus on mathematics, science, writing, and grammar. If you walked into a French classroom, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference other than the language barrier. The students are generally the same as well, with well-behaved and not-so-well-behaved students. It happens everywhere. Other than that, school life is very different in France than it is in America. The school day is much longer in France than it is in the U.S. School usually begins at 8am and ends at 6pm, while in the U.S. it begins around the same time but ends earlier. The French have longer lunch periods, which are around two hours, because they have a longer school day. They also start school at the age of two, while in the U.S. it is typically around the age of five or six. The structure in France is a bit confusing, with the numbers of the grades starting at the top and going down, so it begins with Ecole maternelle: 3-6 years old; then Ecole primaire: 6-11 years old; College: 11-15 years old; Lycee: 15-18 years old; and lastly, Universite. To move onto university, the French have to pass the Baccalaureat exam, which is equivalent to the SAT or ACT in the U.S. The French education system is national, and it may seem superior to the American system, but they don't have as much funding, so they don't offer as many extracurricular activities as the U.S. does.<br />
It is easy to see that many differences exist between the two countries, and with time, it will become clearer which education system is more successful. I recommend watching the film, <i>The Class</i>, because it portrays the typical French middle school classroom so it will give you a better idea of what it is like in France. It might also remind you of your awkward days in middle school, as it did for me!<br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #454545; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 9pt;">Christmas is right around the corner! How do
you intend to celebrate the Christmas season? This is my favorite time of the
year. As Frank Sinatra sings Christmas Carols, "It's the most wonderful
time of the year" the truth rings in my ears. The smells of the
Christmas trees and the lightings of candles are so magical…</span></div>

synchronizes all of the lights to Christmas tunes. The best thing about
it when I was on a college budget was, it is FREE! There is a lot of

reflection on the readings is important because it helps put the Christmas

On November 22nd we had our 2nd Fundraiser here at Femi Memorial Outreach, and it was so much more than we could ever ask for. Our silent auction had 48 items donated by local and national companies and totaled a value of nearly $15,000!! The generosity of our donors was so much more than we even imagined and for that, we are so thankful. The event was held at Michelle's Ballroom from 7-10 p.m., where we provided food, drinks, and entertainment by University of Chicago's Dirt Red Brass Band. Our guests enjoyed time to wonder the Silent Auction while mingling with community supporters from Dominican University, local churches, Femi Outreach program students and tutors, previous Femi Outreach employers, community leaders, and the Femi Outreach Staff. During this time, we were able to familiarize the event attendee's with our organization and create relationships with many new friends of Femi. After some time to mingle, dinner was served, catered by Lee and Eddies Catering, and the program began. Our program leaders were Zelda Robinson and Keith McDonald, who are both active in the Chicago's public learning programs and Chicago Public Television.<br />

Zelda kicked off our program and then handed the microphone to Renee Sassana, former administrative assistant for Femi Outreach. She was able to share her remarkable experiences with Femi Outreach ranging from tutoring successes, to grant successes, to challenges overcame, and challenges we are presented with currently. Her speech was inspiring and informative to our attendee's and created conversation about the organization and its future. After hearing from Renee, our president Bob Pedro took the stage and shared his experience with Femi Outreach over the past 9 years. He brought attention to Ange Reda, our partner from Dominican University who came to support the organization. He thanked her for giving Femi Outreach the opportunity to be the first organization at Dominican University to provide off-campus federal work study opportunities so that we could reach out to schools on the West Side of Chicago. Bob then expressed his gratitude for Femi Outreach's greatest supporters and his friends who have given guidance and love to the organization. Then, we were able to hear about the organization from students who received tutoring from the program. They shared their unique experience and how Femi Outreach helped them to succeed. Our program then concluded and the Dirt Red Brass Band played for the remainder of time left in the Silent Auction. It was a night that will never be forgotten here at Femi Outreach. We were able to connect with our community and bring everyone together, which we cannot often do.<br />

Our hopes for the future are continuously growing. Femi Outreach wants to continue providing outstanding tutoring services to students in need in all of the Chicagoland area. This new year brings us opportunities to improve the program and grow in the community. We will continue to work hard and push for growth for the benefit of the children in our programs. Thank you for your support along the way, for we could not do this without you. Be sure to check out our website and Facebook page for updates on Femi Outreach.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 13.0pt;">Well, you see…It seems like they’ve
done it again! The role models just seem to never fail us and keep on
surprising us each and every time. Now I know you’ve heard about the new Miss
America, right? Wait…is that a yes or no? Because if you haven’t, what rock do
you live under? Anyway, judging that we all have seen or heard about the Miss
America pageant the other day, we must discuss, right? First, let’s just start
off by giving a round of applause to the new Miss America, <b><u>Nina Davuluri</u></b>! <i>*And the crowd goes wild*</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Baskerville Old Face', serif; font-size: 13pt; text-indent: 0.5in;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Baskerville Old Face', serif; font-size: 13pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">Wow! Nina Davuluri is our new Miss
America. </span><span style="font-family: 'Baskerville Old Face', serif; font-size: 13pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">Femi Memorial Outreach Fund couldn’t be
any more proud to learn this. Even though she is going to be working even
harder, carrying out the daily duties and the honorable title of Miss America,
we think she will do great. Now, based on previous pageant history, Nina
Davuluri is the first, I mean <b><u>The
First</u></b> Miss America of Indian descent. This is great and such a huge
deal! This comes to show that America equals diversity. While the other
contestants and runner-ups were amazingly stunning and did great (and I’m sure
they are great role models), this just shows a lot of young girls, who don’t
really have role models in their lives, that anything is possible. With
positivity, support and hard work, you can get there. Nina Davuluri couldn’t
have done it without her hard work, her positive energy and the support of her
family, obviously.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Baskerville Old Face', serif; font-size: 13pt; text-indent: 0.5in;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Baskerville Old Face', serif; font-size: 13pt; text-indent: 0.5in;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Baskerville Old Face', serif; font-size: 13pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">The
young girls that take part in Femi Memorial Outreach Fund’s tutoring program
can be the next Miss America. This is why we are out here doing what we love to
do. Reaching out to children who come from multicultural and underserved
communities warms our heart so much. We do this because we see potential in them.
We don’t want them to think that their financial background or where they come
from should define them and their futures. People like us give them hope, education
is essential in this world and Femi Memorial Outreach Fund does its very best
to make sure that these children are getting that and more. In reality, we are
tutoring our future doctors, lawyers, business professionals, famous sports
players and even Miss America!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Baskerville Old Face', serif; font-size: 13pt; text-indent: 0.5in;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Baskerville Old Face', serif; font-size: 13pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">So, Nina Davuluri, Femi Memorial Outreach Fund wants to
wish you the very best and don’t let us down. We know that you will create
great paths as Miss America and you, my friend, have shown little girls that
dreams do come true. Your beauty, talents and humility are key to being Miss
America. Thank you for never forgetting where you come from! Oh and New York
congrats, next time we'll see if the Windy City can have a Miss America.</span></div>

So World, what do you think? Please leave positive comments below and tell us
what you think Nina Davuluri should accomplish during her term as Miss America.</span></div>

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WNU8txwWPFE/UgvOUvdWLDI/AAAAAAAAAOg/qLuaRUYJsOA/s1600/images.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WNU8txwWPFE/UgvOUvdWLDI/AAAAAAAAAOg/qLuaRUYJsOA/s1600/images.jpg" /></a><span style="font-weight: normal;">As some of you may or may not know, </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #333333; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.38;"><i>Friday, August 9th, 2013</i> was a very special day for Femi Memorial Outreach Fund. That was the Friday we came together to celebrate the short-lived life of Olufemi (Femi) Pedro. If you don't know who he is by now, </span><span style="color: #333333; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.38;">Olufemi (Femi) Robert Martin Pedro is the reason why we have FEMI MEMORIAL OUTREACH FUND today! He died at the young age of 19 due to a rare cancer, and even though his life was cut short, his legacy continues to live on through our program. His birthday was a very special day, not only to his family and friends, but to the organization and the children who are impacted by Femi Memorial Outreach Fund.</span><span style="color: #333333; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.38;"> It was truly a day of celebration and success, rather than mourning. We honored his life. We shared laughs, stories and food, of course. It also turned out to be a really good turn out!</span></span></h2>
<div>
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 17px;">The day started very special, it started off with going to Mass and staying about thirty minutes after Mass to pray the Rosary. It was so heart-warming to see the amount of children who were served by Femi Memorial Outreach Fund come out to support. They remembered that August 9th was a very special day. The success that they have gained thus far was due to the organization and their hard work, and yet they haven't forgotten about that. They remained humble and that was a great feeling. It was like receiving a thank-you for everything that Femi Memorial Outreach Fund has done for them and let me tell you, words can't describe how greatful they are. </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 17px;">Anywho, after Mass, we gathered more people and waited for more people, because there are some who like to show up fashionably late lol. Don't worry, we are all guilty of this! Many family, close friends and workers of Femi have showed up and we all ate at Red Lobster. Now, this was my first time at Red Lobster and I don't like seafood, but thank goodness they had Cajun Chicken Pasta.....Yuuuuuuuummmmmmmmy! Service was great, workers were nice and company topped it off! I mean we spent hours at that table sharing laughs and listening to great historical stories from a man who witnessed history himself. This man was amazing, he's an eighty-five year old, retired doctor. He had many stories to tell, he was like an open history book. Now, why didn't I have him as my History teacher? I would've loved the class back in High School! Oh well, those couple of hours learning more and revisiting history with someone who was actually there during the time, was priceless. It was such a great time listening to him.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 17px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 17px;">Sadly after that, the day had to come to a close and we all had to go home...Boooo! No one likes to leave a good party, right? But we had a BLAST, that's right, you heard me... B-L-A-S-T, BLAST! Now this is how you celebrate a birthday and honor someone's legacy. It was a great start to a boring weekend! With that being said, YOU MISSED OUT!</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 17px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 17px;">But don't worry, you will and always will be invited to future birthday bashes for Femi!</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.38;">We know that Femi would have wanted us to be happy on this day and cherish every moment in life. I know that he was looking down on his family, so proud, of their hard work and strength. I know that Femi looked down at the great successes of the organization and would want forFemi Memorial Outreach Fund to continue on in future years to come, even stronger.</span></h2>

<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;">In
Northwestern Bangladesh, there is a boat floating down the river alongside
rural villages and bathing bodies. On this boat, one of 20, what once was
stopped has continued, education. Annual flooding in Bangladesh keeps hundreds
of thousands of student out of school, interrupting the education they need for
a better life. However, thanks to <a href="http://www.shidhulai.org/"><span style="background: white; color: #666699;">Shidhulai
Swanirvar Sangstha</span></a>, thousands of children have the chance to
continue their education all school year long. This non-profit organization recognizes how important education is and
looks at the rivers that run alongside Bangladeshi banks as an opportunity. If
children cannot reach the school and then the school will come to the children.

<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;">As I
start my second week here at Femi Memorial Outreach Fund, I cannot help to find
the similarities between these floating schools in Northwestern Bangladesh and
our organization. We both strive to help children achieve academic success in environments
that aren’t exactly conducive to learning. Whether it is 12 feet of water or
the risk of being caught in the crossfire of gang violence, nothing should keep
a child from the education that they so desperately want and need.</span></span><o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
How ‘bout those Chicago Blackhawks last night! *Cheering*
Don’t mind the title, I was on twitter the night the Chicago Blackhawks claimed
the title, <b><i>Stanley Cup Champions</i></b>, and saw someone posted a tweet as in the
title. I thought it was the perfect phrase for this blog, if you’re out there
reading this and you came up with that phrase, I give you credit. I mean, it is
the best phrase I’ve seen yet. “We Kane, We Shaw, We Crawford”, talk about
creative. I hope they make t-shirts out of these.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Anyway, let’s start talking about how proud we are of our
Chicago Blackhawks. After three long years of hard-work and drive, the
Blackhawks takes the Stanley Cup again. That’s right, I said it, again! I mean
the Boston Bruins have done a tremendous job last night and let me tell you,
they are not sore losers, that’s for sure. Even though they did not take home
the cup last night, let us take a moment of silence and honor them because it
was a great game and they did not go without a fight. <b><i>Now</i></b>, let us take a moment
of silence and honor the Chicago Blackhawks. Who am I kidding, cheer on my
friends, cheer on! The Blackhawks really did their thing last night. They made
us all proud and I am sure they are overly excited right now. I’m most
definitely sure that they couldn’t have done it without their drive and
ambition, their awesome coach, and let’s not forget the amazing fans. I mean
Chicago has the best supporters in North America, do you not agree? <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The greatest thing about Chicago is our pride. It’s times
like these where we value life. As you can see, last night was a perfect time
for everyone to come together and cheer for that one team. Many yells were
yelled, many friends were made, but at the end of the day, Chicago came
together for one night. We came together and supported our team. You see how support
really has an effect on the game. I mean WOW! For a minute last night, I really
did think that the Boston Bruins were going to be our Stanley Cup Champions,
but my goodness did the Blackhawks work. At the end of the day, one player
doesn’t make a team; it takes a team to play the game and a team to win. Chicago
made one huge team last night and that included the fans, supporters, the coach
and the actual Chicago Blackhawks team. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I remember watching the news last night and seeing a lot of
fans who were very young. A lot of young boys were so proud to see their team
win the championship. When you see that, you can tell how much support affects
the young children. The Blackhawks gave it their all last night and they showed
it to many young boys and girls. They made way for the younger generation. They
show them that dreams do come true, but it takes time, dedication, effort and
support. I know the Blackhawks love the
kids and want to set a great path for them. It really makes me proud to see how
there are good people out there looking ahead for the future of the children. It’s
not about Kane or Crawford or the Blackhawks team, it’s all about the future.
If the Blackhawks keeps this up, the future is looking mighty nice right now.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As we honor the Chicago Blackhawks for a season’s worth of ambition
and triumph, let us not forget the future. So celebrate and have fun at the
Blackhawks parade on Friday, but remember your jobs, your family and your life
because your decisions contribute to your future. <o:p></o:p></div>

Summertime is here….Well not quite
yet! It’s summer in Florida, that’s for sure, but in Chicago, Burrrrrrr. Let’s
just say the weather just doesn’t know what it wants, yet. And we can’t forget
the fact that the Chicago Public School students are still in school. Don’t
worry, tomorrow is their last day until they are free for summer vacation. Summer
is the perfect time for them to relax. I mean we are talking waterparks and
amusement parks, swimming pools, tanning, barbeques, movies and no homework?
Oh, they’re excited! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
They must be super excited for this
school year to come to an end for it has been pretty rocky for them. We know the
strike that was held earlier in the school year has taken a toll on them and
their learning; however they fought through that no matter what. With so many
schools closing in the Chicagoland area, a lot of students are hesitant on
where they’re going to be or what the future looks like. It’s a scary thought
and scary thoughts shouldn’t be in their heads. They’re young and they have their
whole lives ahead of them. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What makes
Femi Memorial Outreach Fund proud of these students is the fact that they
fought through the obstacles of the Chicago Public School system no matter
what. The strike, the Chief of the Chicago Public School system stepping down,
and needless to say, the many school closings that are pending are all the
obstacles they’ve dealt within one academic year…One Year. However, their ambition,
dedication and hard work have paid off and will pay off, if they haven’t seen
any results yet. Staying in school has become an important aspect of one’s life…No?
Well, Femi Memorial Outreach Fund believes that it has and we are glad to be
the ones to help provide supplemental education after-school, especially in the
struggling communities. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
We know a lot of parents are
struggling with this new system that has been placed because they feel that it’s
unfair and will be harder for them and their child(ren). We don’t want them to
feel that way. Femi Memorial Outreach Fund wants to let them know that we understand
that the future may look a little bit blurry as of right now, but it is all for
the best. Everything happens for a reason and if your child(ren) has to
transfer due to their school closing for good, support them. Support them
because it is just as hard on you as it is on them. Let them know that the
building, the art, and the area doesn’t make the child’s education, it’s the
actual learning that matters. All in all we are hoping for the very best. We
hope that this decision is the best and puts the children first. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
With that being said, what do you
think about the many school closings? Please leave your comments below; we’d
really like to hear your take on this. <o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt;">What a year this has been! From
Femi Memorial Outreach Fund winning the 2011-2012 Ignation Spirit Team Award to
partnering up with Loyola University Chicago, The University of Chicago and
Dominican University, and at the same time gaining twelve host locations in
various Chicago Public Schools and Chicago Park Districts to include our
after-school homework assistance program, I start to think how blessed I was to
watch the growth of this organization right before my eyes. I mean, I was
actually a part of this whole growth experience for Femi Memorial Outreach Fund.
From the many accomplishments of Femi Memorial Outreach Fund, I take the time
to look back at my very own accomplishments.</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;">
</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;">As I take a look back from the past, I can’t say that I’ve done it all
on my own. Yes, I’ve had a great support system from my family to my friends
and I still do. However, one unique support system that I’ve gained these past four
years and could never imagine gaining would be that of Femi Memorial Outreach
Fund.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">From being a little freshman
tutor to Head Tutor all the way to becoming an Executive Intern for Femi
Memorial Outreach Fund has been not one, but several accomplishments indeed.
And if you’re asking, No…I am not tired working for the same organization!
Looking back has knocked me over and made me realize that most of my proud
accomplishments during my undergrad career come from my experience at Femi
Memorial Outreach Fund. Recently, I graduated Loyola University Chicago…..Double
Yayyyy! Now, I am not the only 2013 graduate who tutored for Femi Memorial
Outreach Fund for their entire undergrad career. Let’s pause and take the time
to loudly cheer and clap for our other two awesome graduates….Aubrey Carver and
Courtney Neale! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Aubrey, Courtney and I have
tutored for Femi Memorial Outreach Fund for four, full years during our
undergrad career at Loyola University Chicago. Now even though we didn’t see
each other all of the time, they are familiar faces and remain being friends to
the organization. With me traveling to schools on the South Side to help out
in-class and after-school and going to the Park District locations while they’re
traveling to schools and Park District locations as well has caused us to not
see each other often. Yet, I know that they’re hard-working and busy as much as
I. Even though I can’t exactly speak for the both of them, I can try to speak
on behalf of the both of them. I know that tutoring for these past four years
during undergrad has been a tremendously amazing and life-changing experience
with many ups and downs. The important thing is that during these ups and
downs, the children were not alone; we’ve triumphed through it all together, like
a family. Nonetheless, I repeat that it was an Ahhh-mazzzing and Life-changing
experience!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Now, I know a lot of you are
probably reading this and thinking… “You just tutored some kids for four years…Big
Whoop!” However, those of you thinking like that won’t know what it’s like
until you’ve actually experienced it. And for those of you, who think
otherwise, knows what it’s like and actually experienced it. But these children
weren’t just any children; these were children who came from underserved and multicultural
communities. These were children who walk outside in their communities and see
that there is no hope. These are children who haven’t had great role models in
their lives and they are at-risk. When I started off my freshman year at Loyola
University Chicago, I remember saying to myself that I need a work-study job. And
being the fact that my family was against me working during school because they
wanted my sole focus to be on my studies, my mother kept telling me that I need
to get a work-study job in college. I have an older sister who is about fifteen
years older than me and a younger sister who was in high school during the time
I was entering college. So technically, I didn’t really know a lot about how to
find a work-study job or even how all of this work-study stuff works. Let me
tell you, as much as my mother and sister tried to help me out because they graduated
college a long time ago, I still felt that finding a good work-study job was
hard. So I said okay, I am going to search for a work-study job right now, when
I did, I logged on to the Loyola’s Career Website and ding…I came across Femi
Memorial Outreach Fund. It was like fate or something because I didn’t know
they would call me back for an interview.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">I was nervous because I’ve
had experienced being a Caddy during the summer and I’ve had summer internships
in high school, but I never had an actual job before. Applying to Femi Memorial
Outreach Fund was the easy part, interviewing was nerve-wrecking and when I received
that call back, it was life-changing. Life-changing, how? Well, let’s just say that
getting to know these children that I’ve tutored and seeing how their lives are
different from that of mines has allowed me to grow up, so to speak. I used to
be self-centered. I thought that I deserved every little thing in life and that
it should be given to me not earned, if I didn’t get anything I viewed it as
unfair. Now that I’m looking back at it, I seem pretty selfish. You know that
phrase “sharing means caring”…well that wasn’t me! Yet, I met so many kids who
are pretty content with every situation of their lives and they go by with very
little, almost close to none, every day. I met kids in worse conditions possible.
What really is an eye opener is to see that no matter what the situation is,
they wanted to go to school and learn something. I changed because of that! I gained
sympathy and empathy. It didn’t take one day or one year, but these past four
years gave me enough time.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">I learned from these children
as much as they learned from me! As I move on with my life and continue on to
work hard for my future, I will never regret and forget working for Femi Memorial
Outreach Fund. Femi Outreach has believed in me from the very beginning and
during these past four years it has put a lot of hope and trust in me and my
hard work. I’ve gained something incredible and unexplainable from Femi
Memorial Outreach Fund. I will always remember the best work-study job and
internship experience I’ve had at Femi Memorial Outreach Fund!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">A</span>pril 22<sup>nd</sup> is known as Earth Day. I celebrate
Earth Day by making sure I turn off the lights I am not using, not letting the
water run as I brush my teeth, and making as little trash as possible. But,
what more can I do to properly celebrate Earth Day? As I looked into this
question, I found a grand history and meaning behind this day. Earth Day was originally
founded in 1970 as a day to promote education on environmental issues. Now,
many schools have extended this educational holiday to celebrate Earth Week, an
entire week dedicated to learning, understanding, and practicing ways to
eliminate environmental issues. With a focus on students, April 22<sup>nd</sup>
was chosen specifically to reach out to students and allow them, and other
participants, to get outside and truly enjoy the Earth on its’ very own day. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Earth Day was founded after the inspiration of Senator
Gaylord Nelson, who was determined to express the environmental risk of the
planet to the government and the nation in 1962. His idea for creating an Earth
Day came from his experience in viewing “teach-ins” where anti-Vietnam
spokesmen came into classrooms to spread information and educate students about
the issue. In 1969 Senator Nelson invited the world to celebrate Earth Day at a
conference in Seattle and the people were excited about his proposition. On
April 22<sup>nd</sup>, supporters of Earth Day and environmental issue
education rallied in all major cities in the nation. They made an impact on
others and truly revealed the need to understand environmental issues. Now, 200
million people celebrate Earth Day, in one way or another, around the globe.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Some people celebrate by attending information sessions on
environmental issues, signing up for cleaning projects or even refusing to use
their car on the day. But, no matter how you decide to celebrate the day, the
most important part of Earth Day is to become educated on environmental issues.
The day was founded based on the need to inform and share environmental
concerns with everyone so we can protect ourselves and our planet. So, get
informed, spread the word, and enjoy our great planet on this gorgeous Earth
Day.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">A</span>s a student, I have a love-hate relationship with
standardized tests. They have become an important indicator of my future and
will continue to be a heavy part of my education. Standardized testing starts
as early as 5<sup>th</sup> grade. Students at this age take State standardized
tests to measure their potential for advanced classes and to measure teacher
performance. From then, the tests grow importance, from just a measure of
progress to a deciding factor of college acceptance. I can honestly say that my
most stressful educational experience was taking the ACT. As a junior in high
school, they canceled class for all other grades and had the juniors test in a
silent school for an entire day. Not only was the environment scary, but the
rules, directions, and pencil requirements made me afraid to cough. It was
enough pressure to take the test alone, never mind the fact that my results
from this test would determine a heavy weight of my acceptance to my dream
college. My parents, friends, and teachers spent the entire year talking about
the scores and all they would determine. Once the time came to take the test, I
realized I had spent more time studying what score I needed to get than
actually studying for the test. But, studying for standardized tests is another
issue. Many of the tests are national tests, and each curriculum differs in the
nation. Due to this, my teachers explained that there is a possibility that you
may not have learned 30% of the material discussed in any national test. So, I
started studying everything I could. I took around 50 practice exams for the
ACT and still saw no progress. This is when I decided that I would sign up for
a class designed for the ACT. I wrote off three hours of my Saturday for a
month and showed up to this class that I was expecting to teach me all of the
30% of information I had not learned. Strangely enough, the class was not based
on information, but on test-taking strategy. Instead of learning the test
information, I learned how to take a standardized test using time-saving
techniques, process of elimination, guessing advantages, and other strategies. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is when I realized that the standardized test was not only a measure of my
knowledge, but a test of my ability to take a test. I associated this with
unfairness. It was not fair that these tests would put information I had never
seen before in front of me and if I did not know how to divide my guesses
correctly, I would be set up for failure. But, after taking the class my
practice scores had increased substantially and I began to like the tricks to
finding the right answer. These tips and tricks were not only beneficial to standardized
tests, but also regular everyday tests. Regardless of the unfairness, I used
the tips and they worked. I was lucky enough to rock out my ACT and get the
score that got me accepted into all of my dream schools. My parents were happy
with me, my friends were excited for me, and I loved my ACT results. This is
where the love-hate relationship settled. I took a test filled with information
that I had never seen before, along with information I had, and used techniques
designed for test-taking to excel in my educational dreams. What if I had not
taken that ACT prep class? Would I have still scored this high? Does my
preparation put me at an unfair advantage? What if my friends who are smarter
than me got lower scores because of the pressure? I understand that college
acceptance is based off of many aspects, but I will continue to question the
accuracy and necessity of a standardized test to measure a student’s capability
to perform. I do not feel that the amount of pressure these tests puts on
students give them any additional advantages. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Standardized tests have been a part of my education every
step of the way and will continue to be as I go into a master’s program at my
University. I understand the importance of measuring the intelligence of
students, but I will always question the accuracy of standardized tests.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">I</span> previously wrote a post concerning Chicago Public School’s
two-track Calendar. Along with many changes made in CPS this year, the calendar
has now been switched to a single-track calendar for the 2013-2014 school year.
CPS developed this calendar with the Chicago Teachers Union in order to provide
a better balance of uninterrupted education and more convenient family
planning. Barbara Byrd-Bennet, CPS CEO, states, ““We are one District, with one
vision and we want to provide our school community with one calendar that makes
sense from the classroom to the kitchen table. Families all across our city
struggle to coordinate busy schedules with school, work and play and this
unified calendar were designed to best meet the needs of our families’ home
lives while giving our schools the time they need to implement a rigorous
curriculum.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The calendar was built as a response to an online survey and
the many concerns of the Chicago parents, principals, teachers, and students. The
creation of this calendar was to simplify the CPS school system and respond to
the feedback of the people affected by the calendar. Some of the feedback on
the survey included: The first day of school should land in August,
Thanksgiving break should be extended, and half-days should be eliminated. Each
of these main concerns were taken into consideration and put in effect on the
new calendar. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Personally, I love this switch. With families already facing
the struggles of closing schools and other inconveniences, it is important that
everyone is on the same page-well schedule to be more exact. Teachers from
different schools can now compare department ideas with more schools and
students will have a smooth educational experience. Outside of the students,
teachers, and families, now outside organizations, such as Femi, will be better
prepared to work with the schedule of CPS. For example, Femi Outreach worked
with schools from differing tracks. This schedule difference made it more
difficult for us to ensure our services for both tracks when it comes to breaks
or days off. Plus, who doesn’t like simple. A simpler calendar is easy and will
unite CPS more than ever before.<o:p></o:p></div>

Before going to meet them, I had not heard of the show and had no idea what it was even about. As I waited in a line of 600 people who were going to see them, I began to wonder what was so amazing about these people that so many college students were willing to wait in line on a Friday night to watch them speak. Upon entering, I was bombarded with smiles, energy, and post-it notes. I quickly learned that the catch-phrase of the Buried Life guys was "What do you want to do before you die?". As a young lady, I have never once considered this question and I politely rejected putting my answer on a sticky note for everyone to see. I began to realize that this presentation was going to have more to offer than I was expecting. I sat down in my chair and began to ponder my answer to this question. I considered giant goals that I thought I could never accomplish and small goals I could do tomorrow, but for some reason I could not come up with my answer.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-TqZHo3F6oE4/UUdU50_GK4I/AAAAAAAAAK0/cwrj5S4DrkY/s1600/456x330.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="231" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-TqZHo3F6oE4/UUdU50_GK4I/AAAAAAAAAK0/cwrj5S4DrkY/s320/456x330.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Next thing I knew, four energetic and young men walked into the room. My first thought, how in the world did these four fun guys come up with a serious question that made me sit here and question my life goals? They began speaking, telling stories, making everyone laugh, and more importantly describing how they ended up with a TV show centered around the question "what do you want to do before you die?" They shared their story of sitting down together and feeling like they were not accomplishing the things they want to do with their lives. They then wrote down a list of 100 things they want to accomplish before they die, some of them were outrageous while some of them were practical. The four guys, Ben, Jonnie, Dave, and Duncan, decided to take two weeks off in the summer, rent an RV, and travel around the world while accomplishing as many things on their list as possible.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now hearing this part of the story, I began to question these crazy boys. They traveled the world doing all of these fun things with each other and somehow ended up with their own TV show. But, just as I questioned this, they mentioned another part to their plan, with every item they cross off of their own list, they try and help someone else cross something off of his or her own list. Then it all clicked to me, these four guys had decided that they would achieve happiness by doing amazing things for themselves and helping other people do the things that they wanted to achieve. At this point in the presentation, they shared some incredible stories of their trip. They had sneaked onto red carpet premieres to meet their celebrity crushes, helped a school get new computers, made giant donations to charities, and played basketball with the President. Along with every item they could cross off of their list, they were helping strangers they had met along the way to accomplish one of their own. They helped a father find his son, a young girl start a now nationally known organization called To Write Love On Her Arms, and so much more.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It is not very often you get to meet people who live truly inspiring lives. Although a lot of the things their list are just fun things, it is important to do the things that make you happy if you can achieve them and still help out other people. I took their bravery to drop everything and do the things they truly wanted to do as an inspiration in my life. I answered the question "what do you want to do before you die?" and I am working to cross off the items on my list. Being a part of Femi Outreach, I am surround by people who I can have the chance to help every day. From the students we work with to our office success, I have a chance to change the lives of so many people. </div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It is important to remember that no matter who you are, you can do all of the things you want to do. Stay motivated, help others, and be happy. In the end, those are the most important things in life and I am excited that I had the opportunity to see people live out this lifestyle. If you get a chance to watch The Buried Life, or have any comments, please feel free to share your thoughts with us. We really appreciate all of our readers and supporters out there, and I want to leave you all with one final thought (inspired by the boys of The Buried Life):</div>
<div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;">What do you want to do before you die?</span></div>

The concept of non-profit organizations was present in charitable, educational, and religious organizations long before the official formation of non-profits in the 1970s. Now, non-profit organizations are the most rapidly growing organizations in the world.<br />
<br />
There are many ways to define a non-profit because there are many types. They vary in degree, size, and cause for which they formed. The complexity leads to a variety of meanings of the word non-profit, which can be described by one of the twenty-eight Internal Revenue Codes. For example, Femi Memorial Outreach Fund is a 501(c)(3) charitable tax-exempt organization. This Code provides specific guidelines for the non-profit to follow under government terms.<br />
<br />
Running a non-profit is very different from running a for-profit business. In most cases, non-profit organizations are formed to provide a beneficial good or service to others without regard to profit.The goal of these organizations is not to make money through the service, but solely to help out a cause. At Femi Outreach, we strive to empower students from at-risk situations through after-school tutoring and mentoring programs. Although money is an important factor in our business; in order to pay wages, transportation costs, and much more, we do not intend to make a profit through our services. This is not to say that for-profit businesses to not strive to do good for others; many of them do, but non-profit organizations simply do not run with the intention of making a profit. The name really does say it all.<br />
<br />
I love working for Femi Outreach, a non-profit, because we touch the lives of students everyday. I get to meet members of the community who want to be involved in changing the lives of others. Most of the people who interact with Femi Outreach are also so passionate about the cause. A non-profit business combines the aspects of business and charity in a delicate and <b>very</b> special way.<br />

The holiday was established in 1885 in order to commemorate President George Washington and was originally known as "Washington's Birthday". George Washington was born on February 22nd but as the Holiday evolved, it has been moved from the 22nd to be celebrated on the 3rd Monday of February. This change was made due to the 1971's Uniform Monday Holiday Act which focused on creating more three-day weekends for workers.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">President George Washington</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
After this shift in the Holiday's date, many parts of the nation began to celebrate Washington's Birthday in relation with Abraham Lincoln's birthday February 12th. In combining the two President's celebrations, many people found it unfair to call the holiday "Washington's Birthday". So, in 1971 Richard Nixon claimed the day to officially occur on the third Monday of February and it would pay respect to all Presidents.<br />
Presidents' Day is a day to celebrate our country and the achievements of all of our past and present chief executives. Many people show their respect in performing reenactments, holding celebrations, and much more. Each state holds celebration for important Presidents in their personal history, and the day is meant to spread information on the history of the Presidency in the United States.<br />
<br />
We hope that you truly enjoy your day off on Monday, but encourage you to take some time to look into our nation's history and take time to celebrate the accomplishments of the President's and the country. Without these leaders, nearly all of the unique aspects of being an American would not be. Thank our nation's leaders and celebrate in what way you see most fit. We will do the same.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">A very Happy President's Day to all of our readers.</span>Femi Memorial Outreach http://www.blogger.com/profile/02711349654908673229noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3352072512782602982.post-67234245954299015352013-02-01T09:26:00.001-08:002013-03-01T10:11:20.981-08:00Femi Memorial Outreach<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">A</span>s we get further into this new year, we at Femi Outreach have so much to be thankful for. As a non-profit, we are blessed to have all of the support from so many people. From our partner schools (Loyola University Chicago, Dominican University, and The University of Chicago), to our host schools throughout Chicago, to our tutors, donors, and staff. There are so many people involved in what we do and we truly could not be where we are today without the support. So here is a huge <span style="font-size: x-large;">THANK YOU</span> to everyone who has been a part of Femi Outreach's journey.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
Femi Memorial Outreach was founded in 2004 by Bob Pedro, to <span style="color: #333333;"><span style="line-height: 22px;">honor the life of his son, Olufemi (Femi) Robert Martin Pedro. Femi was truly an inspiration. He was an academic scholar, award-winning athlete, respected leader among his family, and all-around, a loving, trusting, and loyal person. This organization is build around the qualities possessed by Femi and his passion to do good for others. Everything that we do is to keep his legacy alive.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="line-height: 22px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="line-height: 22px;">Our tutors are students who take time out of their lives to help improve the chances for success for at-risk students. Often, they drive long distances to meet with the children, and do it with an open heart. Bob Pedro, the executive chief officer, dedicates hours of service to the found while running his own business, being an active member of his church, and devoting time to his family and </span></span><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="line-height: 22px;">mentees. Our donors have given their support on levels that reach beyond financial help. They are the most kind-hearted and positive people who we are thankful to be supported by. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="line-height: 22px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="line-height: 22px;">Truly, there is no greater feeling than going into a day knowing you have tried to make a difference in the lives of those who need it. At Femi Outreach, this is our goal everyday. I am thankful to work for an organization with such a goal and I am thankful to be surrounded by people who support this goal. So once again, let me say <span style="font-size: large;">THANK YOU</span> on the behalf of everyone here at Femi Outreach for you involvement with our organization, we appreciate it at the highest level.</span></span></span>Femi Memorial Outreach http://www.blogger.com/profile/02711349654908673229noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3352072512782602982.post-32552331979957734962013-01-25T11:17:00.000-08:002013-01-25T11:17:07.617-08:00Year-Round School<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-indent: 0.5in;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">W</span>hen I look back to my childhood,
most of my memories come straight from summertime. I remember going to the lake
with my family, barbecues with my friends, playing in every backyard with my
neighborhood friends, summer camps, cheerleading camps, and not having a worry
in the world. This is why I decided to look further into the idea of younger
generations facing year-round school. The idea of taking away a child’s summer
struck me as a form of robbery. Seeing as the Chicago Public School system has
embraced a multi-track approach to education, there was no better place to
start my research with <st1:stockticker w:st="on">CPS</st1:stockticker>. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
The “Track E” schools run on a
year-round calendar and currently make up about one third of <st1:stockticker w:st="on">CPS</st1:stockticker>. The original goal of creating a multi-track
system in Chicago was to increase the attendance, provide a safe environment,
and prevent learning loss which would essentially lead to higher test scores.
Track E schools have seen an 88.1% increase in attendance in 2011 on top of an
86.8% increase the in 2010 (<a href="http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2011-08-11/news/ct-met-cps-attendance-20110811_1_year-round-schools-year-round-schedule-cps-students">Source</a>).
With such high results in an important aspect of school, like attendance, I
started to see the power of year-round education. In looking further into the
benefits of this calendar style, I have seen arguments which state that the
calendar was also providing teachers with more time to teach and go over their
lessons, which lessens the amount of stress for both the teacher and student
when trying to properly reach their education goals. Students also are learning
in a more relaxed environment, which prompts them to become involved in more
extra-curricular activities. I am seeing a large amount of benefits that come
along with adapting a year-round calendar, which has strongly swayed my initial
opinion on the subject. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<br /></div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://wfld.images.worldnow.com/images/998303_G.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="http://wfld.images.worldnow.com/images/998303_G.jpg" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Track E School- Photo from myfoxchicago.com</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Benefits aside, I am not fully
convinced that a year-round school system is a better option as compared to the
Track R, or regular, school calendar. It is obvious that the cost of maintenance
costs will increase, at an estimate of at least 10%. Along with the maintenance
cost increase, it is most likely that adapting to a year-round calendar will
increase taxation and tuition to help cover these costs. Also, as I first
mentioned, students will miss out on the social benefits of having a summer.
These are two extremely important factors when it comes to deciding to take the
turn to a year-round calendar.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
The conflicting opinions,
experiences, and resistance to change have revealed themselves in every
article, blog, and school who has taken a look into the idea of converting to a
year-round calendar. We would like to see what you, our readers, have to say.
What are your opinions? Do you have experience with the Track E calendar?
Please, enlighten us with your thoughts as we want to know your voice. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">I</span>t seems as if the headlines have been filled with school
shootings and the need for new gun control laws lately. The nation was filled
with sadness on December 14th after hearing the devastating news of the Sandy
Hook Elementary School shooting. Mass killings hold devastating emotions behind
them, but I think these emotions were intensified due to the young age of the
20 students, along with six school officials, shot in Newtown, Connecticut. Our
nation even rallied to raise $8.5 million for the Sandy Hook School Support Foundation.
Yet, since the shooting, we have seen more gun violence. The Taft Union School
in California has been another headline depicting a teen’s desire to murder his
fellow classmates. Every time I hear about a shooting, especially among youth,
I am saddened. Yet, the shootings all
make me wonder the same thing, is this an issue of gun policies or deeper? Are
the shootings a result of much deeper issues in our modern day youth, or is it
simply too easy to bring a gun to school?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
These questions led
me to investigate the topic more. In my investigation, I have found one thing
to stand out more than others. Most of the articles based on school shootings
and gun policies are opinion based. Some say these killings wouldn’t occur if guns
were not accessible, others say the problem isn’t a matter of violence, but of
mental health. All of the articles held points I can support whole heartedly,
so it led me to this thought; why does the cause have to be directly blamed on
one thing? As Americans, we like to do things quickly and efficiently, and in
many cases, that is the best way. In a contrast, dealing with the human mind is
not black and white. I do not believe we can solve the violence issues we have
seen by simply increasing our restrictions on gun laws, or by implementing more
mental health support. The only way to protect our people is to take action on
a broad range of potential causes. These actions can be made with government
support, an increase in prevention programs, but also by the people. In working
for a business which tutors and mentors youth in underprivileged environments,
I believe we can have just as much of an impact on a student who may be tempted
by violence as any law. By supporting our students, preventing bullying,
enhancing student participation, and becoming role models for students, we can
help to provide an environment where no one feels a need to use violence. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I am not, by any means, suggesting there be no government
control on issues such as gun policies. But why wait for the laws to change
when we can start the change today? As citizens of an amazing country which
allows us to express ourselves, we are given the power to change social issues
if we are willing to work for it. But, much like many of the articles I have read
on this topic, these are <i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">simply my beliefs</span></i>.
Either way, I am sure we all hope to see less violence in the future. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We want to know what our readers are thinking, so, please,
let us know how you feel you can attribute to the issues of school violence!<o:p></o:p></div>

at the Billy Goat Tavern located here, in Chicago. I met a lot of great leaders
and life-changing people from that District and I really learned a lot from
them. It was a great opportunity to see how much hard work pays off and to see
the great projects that these people come together and work to get it done.
Beyond the fact of being able to participate in this event, it was a great
pleasure meeting Jesse White. That’s right, I said it! I met the Secretary of
State. Who would’ve thought that I would’ve met Jesse White, because I sure
didn’t. For many of you who do not know
him, he is not only a serious and caring man, but he is just very. He knows how
to light up a room with his jokes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Besides being Star Struck
by meeting Jesse White, I had the opportunity of taking some pictures with him
and talking about Femi Memorial Outreach Center. I shared with him the great
progress that Femi Memorial Outreach Center has made from the time I started
working for this organization four years ago. I shared with him the great
opportunities that Femi Memorial Outreach Center offers not only to children
within various communities, but to University students, as well. I believe that
Femi Memorial Outreach Center works to educate and working with these children
over the past three and a half years, allowed me to educate myself as well. I
was honored in sharing with Jesse White the hard work that Femi Memorial
Outreach Center has done and seeing the hard work pay off every single day
through the children we provide help to in various communities of the North,
West and South sides of Chicago. Although Jesse White and I spoke briefly about
Femi Memorial Outreach Center, seeing the look on his face and how amazed he
was in the things this organization has done really reminded me of how proud I
am to be a part of positive growth and change. He was so amazed that he wanted
to help out in any way he can, he let me know that if the organization needed
anything, Femi Memorial Outreach Center should contact him. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Not only did I share information
about Femi Memorial Outreach Center to Jesse White, but I had the great
opportunity of sharing it with some Attorneys and Leaders of the 27<sup>th</sup>
Ward. They, too, seem delighted with all the hard work that Femi Memorial
Outreach Center has done and accomplished. They were truly amazed to see such
an organization stand strong to this very day and expanding throughout the
Chicago land area. The excitement of talking about Femi Memorial Outreach
Center has spread and Attorneys there were recruiting their friends to hear
what I had to say. To hear them say, “Wow”, made me even more proud of being a
part of Femi Memorial Outreach Center. With that being said, I did also have a
lot of fun and shared a lot of laughs with some of the great leaders of
Chicago. I enjoyed eating Billy Goat Tavern’s burgers for the very first time
and meeting new people. An opportunity like this one couldn’t be surpassed and
I am so glad that I was able to share the many great things Femi Memorial
Outreach Center has accomplished throughout my years working for this
organization and meeting new people, including The Jesse White. I am proud to
be a part of Femi Memorial Outreach Center and I will always speak of it
proudly.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>S</b></span>chools provide many benefits for their students. The
academic curriculum is only the beginning in the importance of attending
school. Some of the best advice I have ever received about school is to get
involved. Getting involved in extracurricular activities truly strengthens a student’s
ability to grow on a mental, academic, and personal scale. Extracurricular activities
give you a chance to explore a creative, physical, social, or career related
side to yourself. You are given a chance to shine outside of the classroom. The
variety of extracurricular activities ranges from varsity to club sports,
competitive to just-for-fun clubs, internships, and much more. I personally
believe that becoming involved in activities outside of the classroom has given
me a chance to put my academic work to use. I joined clubs in my career field,
which gave me a chance to see my lessons play out in the real world. I was able
to join cheerleading at a young age, which formed my social skills far beyond
what my shy personally would have been capable to achieve solely in the
classroom. Aside from my personal experiences in joining extracurricular
activities, it has been proven that the additional involvement is necessary for
students. <a href="http://kidshealth.org/teen/school_jobs/school/involved_school.html">Healthykids.org</a>
has an informative article stating many benefits including the social
expansion, physical gains, and decrease in potential for forming bad habits.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So, now that you know the benefits you might be wondering
how you can get involved, or get your child involved, in an extracurricular
activity? We believe you should find a school-based activity that fits the
passions and needs of yourself or your student. There are numerous amounts of
national clubs branched at school’s around the nation along with programs unique
to each school. Contact your school and sign up for Newsletters to keep updated
on any new opportunities. Most importantly, if you are not finding the extra
commitment to be helpful, do not be afraid to keep trying. It is common for
students to try many different clubs before sticking to one; it is part of the
growing experience involved in after-school activities.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Femi Memorial Outreach</b> is an academic based after-school
program. We provide our students with a chance to get extra help on their
homework in a positive environment. Our tutors are educated and experienced
students from Loyola University Chicago, Dominican University, and the
University of Chicago. Our twelve locations are spread throughout the North, West,
and South sides of Chicago in order to accommodate as many students as
possible. We hope to empower students to see their own potential inside and
outside of the classroom. Our students come from at-risk and immigrant
backgrounds. This provides students for a chance to get the help they need and
make friends who may have similar situations as they do. Although we are
academically based, our program strives to turn the lives of our students
around. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Femi Outreach</b> is just one example of the many great
extracurricular activities available to students around Chicago. We wish that
each student will take action and get involved in something positive and fun! <o:p></o:p></div>

After taking many
pictures with my friends, we decided to see what the ice skating was all about.
The line wrapped around the outdoor rink but we stepped in line anyways. It was
great to watch and interact with so many strangers. Behind us in line was a
friendly middle-aged couple who gave us great advice on how to appreciate your
blessings while you are away from home. In the rink, we saw a young lady fall
and a complete stranger helped her back to her feet. It is experiences like
this that make you realize how great people can be, and how the Holidays can
really bring out the best in us. Unfortunately, after a half hour of waiting,
we were told we would not be able to skate before the rink closed. Which leads
me to my first piece of advice: If you are going to ice skate at Millennium
Park, get in line before 8 p.m.. We did not let this be a setback for our
festive evening, so we decided to go to Navy Pier. After much debate, we chose
to walk there because of the great weather. So, the two mile walk began. Now
this is where my second piece of advice comes in. The best way to make a two
mile walk go by fast is to carol with your friends the whole time. We were able
to get others to join along in our festive singing and even gained a small crew
as we caroled down Michigan Avenue. I never knew that six silly people could
bring together a large community in such a positive way. I am not sure if we
can thank the Holiday atmosphere or the great people who we happened to be walking
by that night. On our walk, we saw the grand Christmas tree standing in place
of the famous Marilyn Monroe statue. The number of white lights on the tree
gave a bright and joyful view and stood for a great place to take a break from
walking. Of course, this is not the only Christmas Tree Chicago has put up.
Another well-known Christmas tree viewing location is at the Daley Plaza. The
remarkable tree is filled with colors and Holiday activities all day. Each tree
really gets you in the Holiday spirit, and makes you wish you could fit a giant
tree in your own living room. After admiring the tree, we booked it to our
final destination, Navy Pier. Upon entering, the Pier is lit up vibrantly with
snowflakes surrounding the entrance, but this is only the beginning. <o:p></o:p></div>

You enter the boardwalk and can see the whole city lit up,
with many buildings having messages in their windows! Once you reach the
convention center, Navy Pier is transformed into a Winter WonderFest. The giant
room is filled with blue carpets, lights, a giant (along with many smaller)
Christmas tree, rides, attractions, great food, ice skating, and numerous
chances for a good photo-shoot. We stayed at the Winter WonderFest until it
closed so we could admire all of the festive decorations and activities. The
families, teens, and adults enjoying the Winter WonderFest all had smiles on
because of the wonderful atmosphere provided. Your children will be lit up with
joy with the lights, decorations, and festive food and activities.</div>

We had such a great time on our Holiday adventure. I would
say that if you get a chance to go celebrate the season, I would recommend any
and all of the events above. Some of the upcoming Holiday Events can be found <a href="http://www.chicagonow.com/show-me-chicago/2012/10/chicago-holiday-events-calendar-2012-tree-lighting-on-daley-plaza-mag-mile-lights-fest-zoolights-and-more/">HERE</a>.
Most of these events are family friendly, and the little kid inside of me was
rekindled during my adventure. Also, it is a great break from school and work,
so I encourage you to fill your yuletide season with as much joy as possible,
because there truly is no time of the year quite like it.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>M</b></span>ayor Rahm Emanuel has officially
declared his support for the moratorium on Chicago Public School Closures this
Monday, November 26, 2012. When I first read this headline, I had no idea what
this meant for CPS and the students and families involved. After further
research, I have gained a greater understanding which I will share with all of
you readers! The CEO of Chicago Public Schools, Barbara Byrd-Bennett, proposed
a five-year moratorium on school closures in-order for the school system to properly
size the districts and provide more community involvement in school closure
decisions. The moratorium is more-or-less a five year hold on school closures.
The idea of holding school closures for five years is to involve the parents
and community in all decisions and provide more stability for families. Also,
the moratorium will provide CPS with a greater chance to gain a four-month
extension on this year’s list of school closings. CPS requested the extension
at the end of March this year along with the word that they plan to issue the
five-year moratorium, which is now officially proposed. The Illinois House
approved this extension on Wednesday, November 28, 2012, and needs Governor Pat
Quinn to sign the final legislation before the week is up in order to finalize
the extension. Along with the extension, the moratorium is said to halt CPS
facility closures after this year. Mayor Emanuel will work with district
officials to enforce numerous school closings this year leading to five years
free of school closures. <o:p></o:p></div>

Mayor Emanuel has showed his support for the moratorium in
saying, “…year after year, Chicago Public Schools did not do an adequate job of
engaging communities in these critical decisions, and year after year students,
families and communities were left wondering of what was to come. That ends
this year." The Mayor believes this will give a peace of mind to
communities that have been in constant fear of the unknown. Hopefully, this is
the first step to stabilizing schools in the Chicago Public School District and
further improving the educational opportunities for students.
