Spanish Students of the Month

A student of the month is an individual who
shows an outstanding work of determination and
responsibility. The Spanish teacher, Mrs.
Rusinko, has been seeking for those qualities in
students over the past month. Since 2014,
Carlynton Jr. Sr. High School has been hosting
Spanish classes with Mrs. Rusinko. These
students get to pick from a list of Spanish names
and are called that when somebody needs their
attention. During this class, students explore a
world of unique cultures and learn about the
diversity between many Spanish countries and
the United States.

The Spanish students of the months, Bridget (Lola) Maloy, Clara (Diego) Keller, Leah, (Celia) Zielinski, and Shelby (Gabriela) Palmer have shown a great deal of hard work and dedication throughout the month. They have put a lot of time and effort into becoming exceptional individuals. Being chosen as a student of the month is quite an honor and these student should be proud.

Fashion Bash

Junior Martial Delrosario styles a short, black dress at Carlynton’s second annual Fashion Bash.  On the 29th of February, Carlynton held its second annual Fashion Bash. The Fashion Bash had dual purposes- to raise funds for Prom, and to showcase various styles one might choose to  wear to prom. It was held from seven to nine in the Shop. The main event was the fashion show, where for a total of  about 30 minutes 44 dresses and nine suits were modelled . In addition, some girls modelled hair styles with more casual dresses. This served to advertise Dani's Hair Loft. Many of the dresses modelled were donated , but seven were rented from David’s Bridal. The suits modelled came from Men’s Warehouse. Jewelry, made by Paparazzi Independent Consultant, nails from Color Street , and flowers from Bella Flora Shoppe were also shown .  The emcees of the evening were Alaiyah Burks, Erin Fox , and Savannah Sevacko . They described the styles of the evening. ...

Elective Highlight: Peer-to-Peer Creative Expression

Last semester, I took Peer-to-Peer Creative Expression. It was an art class with Mrs. Vayanos , where older students worked with peers from the Mr. Zebrasky ’s special education class to express themselves creatively and build artistic skills.  The class pulled a variety of mediums for the projects, and weeks were “themed.” For instance, one week was themed with leaves, and for a project we went outside and  collected leaves for leaf rubbings. We also cut large leaves out of watercolor paper and used watercolors to paint them. Occasionally, the class would set up scavenger hunts around the school, so that week we went around and  collected paper leaves. At the end, we went downstairs to Mr. Z’s showcase and pinned the leaves to a paper tree. As 3-dimensional projects were popular, we also borrowed projects from different classes. We spent a few weeks using clay to make the themed mugs from the Creativity and Innovation curriculum, which sparked a...

Advice from a Senior: Study Tips

Now that midterms are over and we are all beginning to see our grades, we have had time to reflect on what study methods worked and what did not. This article compiles several study methods I have found successful throughout high school, and especially this year. Step 1: Determine What You Need to Study, AKA Prioritize It would be counterproductive to study topics you already know; therefore, it is necessary to prioritize what you understand least. Determining what you do not know is a vital part of studying. I find the most successful way to determine what you do not know is by attempting to complete a study guide or practice test without looking up questions. If the teacher did not provide any of these materials, you may try to redoing questions from your notes or worksheets you have already done. Occasionally, you may benefit from solving questions in the textbook or from online. It is common to do poorly on this initial assessment, but by observing what questions you get w...
