The Mayor’s Youth Employment Program is a great opportunity for Juniors and Seniors to get hands on experience to prepare for their future in the workforce. In order to join this amazing program, students must have at least a 3.0 GPA to participate. They then undergo a rigorous selection process in which 60 students are chosen for training and then of those 60, 25 will be chosen to participate in the internships. Carlos Figueroa is one of the Junior participants, claims “It took dedication and persistence, [however] It is a great experience” he also mentioned he feels privileged to “know what it is like to be in a professional work environment” before going into the workforce. A Senior participant, Hanh Nguyen, said “The program will show [our community] that Garinger students can excel in the career of their choice, and this will give us an advantage and it is great experience.”

Members of the National Honor Society celebrated Dr. Seuss day by planning a day of reading and activities for first graders at Shamrock Gardens Elementary.
The students read books like The Lorax and The Cat and the Hat and had the first graders do activities like making trees and mustache cutouts. Members of NHS got to leave right after third block to walk over to the elementary school and split up to cover two first grade classes.
The first graders seemed very excited to be able to interact with high school students and participate in the activities planned for them.
Favourite Classes in High School
My favorite class so far during this second semester would be my PE Class at my 4th Block.
I really like that class because of so many reasons, they are the following:
Why i don’t think that all the other Classes are not much fun like the P.E Class?
I think that my other three classes are not as much fun as my P.E Class is because of so many reasons that i already included as above:
Topics that we learn about in P.E Class
We learned about some of the healthy foods, behaviour and depression types.
For example:- Like to eat more healthy foods and homemade food rather than junk foods like chocolate, KFC,McDonald’s, chip and artificially made juice. It makes your body more productive and active throughout the day and makes you more healthy.
Examples of Healthy Foods and Homemade Foods
Examples of Unhealthy and Junk Foods
And the other topic is about Sanitary Conditions and Depression.
For example like
Major Depression which is a mental disorder which is characterized by at least two weeks of low mood that is present across most of the situations. It is often accompanied by low-self esteem and negative point of view of yourself, lost of interest in normally enjoyable daily activities, low energy, and feeling pains without a clear cause.
Situational Depression is a depression that can occur in the aftermath of various traumatic changes in your own life, which includes divorce with your husband or wife, retirement, get fired from job or loss of a job, death of a relative or close friend. Doctors sometimes refer to the conditions as an adjustment disorder.
And right now we are learning about Food Chart/Pyramids, and i think that it’s easy, interesting and important to know as knowledge about foods.
So this is the end of my description and explanation of My Favourite Class in High School so far. Thanks for enjoying My Story that is written by myself.

Garinger High School has it’s very own Exchange Student who’s from Rome Italy. His name is Francesco Riga and he is currently a senior. Robert Davis and I interviewed him and he told us all about his home, his culture and his friends all the way across the globe, we were quite shocked at the simliarties we shared ! Check out our interview with Garinger’s Newest wildcat down below
” It’s very fun and the people there are very friendly. It’s a lot of structures and moments there and it is always filled with tourists.”
” I play guitar and hang out with my friends. Sometimes we play soccer or we go and get coffee, whatever we do we always have fun doing it. ”
” I was quite surprised in how the people here act, I thought people here were going to be friendly and welcoming but that was far from it. The people here at the beginning may seem a bit detached, but when you really know it are very nice and sociable.”
” The food here isn’t so good, the pasta here is horrible. At home we eat dinner around 8ish and I was surprised because here in AMerica you guys consider that late. But at home my grandmother cooks and I love when she cooks pasta, it’s very delicious. As far the pizza back home it’s very good.”
“Yeah I watched Disney Channel, I loved Zack and Cody, Brandy and Mr. Whiskers, you know a lot of the old shows that they used to show, I don’t watch those shows now though since im older.”
“Yes, I met some very nice friendly people”
With that being said wildcats let’s do better a job in welcoming our new students and future students.
