END OF FINALS!!!

noreply@blogger.com (Ruby.S) — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 16:04:00 +0000

Yes! Finals time is over! Many of you might really be happy and some of you might not really care, but I am very happy. I'm just glad that I don't have to worry so much about studying or coming to school on time (everybody should still come to school on time anyways), but you don't have to worry about missing a test because you were late. Hopefully you all got the grades you were hoping for and noticed that some of your studying really paid off.

Now that finals are over, you can relax a little more and feel less pressure to make sure you remember everything you studied, that's if you even studied (and hopefully you did!). If you did study and know or feel that you did well on a test, then congratulations, you probably did! In case you didn't, it's okay, just try harder next time. Now, all you have to worry about is getting to school on time so that you don't get detention and turn in your homework on time so that you don't get home work center!

Student Government: Inside Access

noreply@blogger.com (Chris Whitmore) — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 22:55:00 +0000

Good afternoon LPS community, this is your Inside Access report of February 2nd, 2010. Great news! I am very excited today because the proposal for Student Congress has finally been approved.

This means that your Student Government is growing fast and the best part is that I'm looking for people like you to be a part of it. Many of you have come to me with very great concerns about the school and what affects students.

Very soon you will be able to make your concerns heard better than before if you become a Congressman, Congresswoman, or voice your opinions to more than one leader.

Personally, being a Student Government of only five people is hard work and leading it is even harder. There's an expression, "don't put more on your plate than you can eat." Although I love my responsibilities, this year the Officers and I have been eating a lot and now we can share the food.

I'm still trying to find a way to promote Student Congress but I assure you advertisement is on its way. Thank you all for reading. Have a good afternoon and your access has been expired.

Student Government: Inside Access

noreply@blogger.com (Chris Whitmore) — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 22:55:00 +0000

Good afternoon LPS community, this is your Inside Access report of February 1st, 2010. I hope you all had a relaxing weekend and welcome to a new month.

Today I'm going to layout my priority list for this month.

Priority number one: Establish Student Congress, which is the newest installment to Student Government. This group's purpose is to help make decisions based on student affairs.

I'm pushing to get this group established because I have experienced great stress dealing with student affairs as a small group and with a larger Student Government, the future President and Officers can make decisions faster and more stress free.

Priority number two: Establish a consistent fundraising machine. By this I mean something like a Student Store.

For various reason we have been without a Student Store for a longer period than ever before. A store is a centerpiece for our Student Government because it is what allows us to have the money to do things for the students.

With a return of a Student Store there will be money stored for next year's Student Government to put on events.

Priority number three: Increase diversity at LPS. Although our school is very well represented by intelligent Hispanics, African Americans, Caucasians, and Asians or population leans heavily towards Hispanic.

I will be working with administrators and parents to figure out why we are not as diverse as we should be and how to get more ethnicities representation in our school.

There you have it; my priority list for February. Thank you for reading and expect me to get on these things very soon. Have a good evening, and your access has expired.

Family Meeting, January 15, 2010

noreply@blogger.com (Mr. Madway) — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 20:35:00 +0000

I know we're a little late on this one, but as they say, better late than never.

Congratulations to all of the PUMA nominees and winners, and a big thank you to all of the performers who honored Martin Luther King Jr!

9th Grade Health Fair

noreply@blogger.com (Chris Whitmore) — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 22:56:00 +0000

On Friday, January 15th, Ms. Wolfe's Academic Literacy students held a Health Fair on the blacktop during lunch. The variety of poster boards ranged from why people are stressed, to depression, anxiety, eating disorders, obesity, and how to eat and live healthy.

The overall purpose of the fair was to showcase to the entire LPS community what that freshman students have learn in Academic Literacy as well as to educate us on the common health issues that so many people in our country face.

Personally I enjoyed the creativity that the students had to design their posters and more importantly I enjoyed reading the valuable information on them. I was pleased by the maturity of the students having the ability to thoroughly explain their projects and the great teamwork that they had with each other.

Great job to all the students who participated and the LPS community thanks you for teaching us something very valuable for our health.

FINALS TIME!!!

noreply@blogger.com (Ruby.S) — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 23:06:00 +0000

As you all may know, finals are coming up real soon. This means it's time to STUDY! Some of you might be thinking "Oh no, I have to study!" but you can always make studying easy and a little more fun than what you're used to. If you're the type of person who likes to study with friends, which a lot of you might be, you can get a little group of people and all study together. Make sure that you don't end up just goofing off, and actually study. If you're the type of person who likes to study alone, you can make flash cards on the things that you know are going to be on the test.

For me, I think studying alone and playing some music or studying with just one other person is better because that way you don't get to distracted. Sure, there are going to be times when you do get distracted, but if it's just you and someone else, one of you is eventually going to say "o.k, o.k, lets finished" and you'll get back on track. When the test comes up and you see how easy everything was because you studied, you'll be very happy and proud of yourself when you see that you did well.

So study hard and get a good night sleep!

Oakland Students Helped Make MLK Day a Holiday in California

noreply@blogger.com (Mr. Madway) — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 04:36:00 +0000

For anyone who has ever doubted the fact that teenagers can have a real political impact, check out this video about Oakland Tech students who played a role in Martin Luther King Jr. Day becoming an official holiday in California.

Very inspirational!

Is it The End or a New Beginning?

noreply@blogger.com (Ruby.S) — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 22:02:00 +0000

When you think of the year 2012, do you really believe that the world is really going to end? Or do you think its just all a lie and people are just making to big of a deal about it? Everyone thinks something different. But the truth is that no one really knows, so you shouldn't get worried or scared about it because it might all just turn out to be a big lie. Also you shouldn't believe what anyone is saying about this because there were many times, three times from what I heard, that people were saying that the world was going end and obviously they were all wrong. Just because this time it seems like it really might happen because everyone is making a bigger deal out of it doesn't mean that it is actually going to happen.

I wouldn't think of it as the end, I would think of it as a new beginning. A couple days ago my family and I were having a little conversation about it. My aunt was the one who made me think that way about 2012. She said that it is not going to be the end the world, it is just going to start back at year 1. I don't really know why they would want to do that if that's what they're planning to do, but it makes it less scary to think of it as a new beginning rather than to think of it as the end of the world.

Student Government: Inside Access

noreply@blogger.com (Chris Whitmore) — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 22:54:00 +0000

Good afternoon LPS community, this is your Inside Access report of January 6th, 2010. In my previous report I began to tell you my Presidential agenda for the remainder of the year. If you did not read the first half I encourage you to do so and if you have welcome to part two.

I last left of telling you about bringing back the Student Store. I'm also focusing on bringing more clubs to the student body. Currently I am collaborating with Ms. Barrios as well as UC Berkeley volunteers to bring unique, fun, and of course skill building clubs to the school.

Another big thing on my agenda is to bring fun social events to the school that go out of the box of just dances. There is a variety of ways to have fun as a community and in my last few months in office I want to bring new ideas of entertainment.

The finally thing on my agenda is to help make the Senior Prom as good as an event as possible. The Prom is the main event for a high school senior and for our entire community and as one of my finally projects at LPS I'll make sure it is a success.

This is what will be done by June by me and my fellow Officers so expect great things from us from now on to the end of the year. Thank you for reading my agenda. Thank you for visiting the only site to read updates by me, Voices of LPS Richmond. Your access has been expired.

Student Government: Inside Access

noreply@blogger.com (Chris Whitmore) — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 22:56:00 +0000

Good afternoon LPS community and welcome back to school. This is your Inside Access Report for January 4th, 2010. First off I hope you all enjoyed your two week vacation and had a happy holiday season.

Today I'll be giving you Part one of my Presidential agenda for the remainder of the year. This year in Student Government was very rough, which I completely expected due to the changes we've encountered.

It is my intention to make sure that a rough Student Government year never happens again at LPS. This will happen by the Student Government Officers taking younger students under our wing to prepare them for an Officer position.

This will be done by creating committees for students of all grade levels to participate in and members of these committees will have direct association with the Officers. Secondly, the Peer Leaders will be recruiting more people and we will be accepting freshman applicants.

It is my goal that by the end of the year our community will have young, vibrant students with the skills necessary to continue to raise the bar of excellence for Student Government.

The next thing on my agenda is to create a central, continuos fundraising establishment. For the remainder of the year I will attempt to re-establish a student store for the enjoyment of students and the profit of the Peer Leaders.

I'll stop there and let part one settle in. Tomorrow I will resume with my plans for the remainder of the year. Thank you for reading and I encourage you to tell your friends about the only place where you can read about my thoughts: Voices of LPS Richmond. Your access has been denied.

"The Orphan"

noreply@blogger.com (Ruby.S) — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 23:01:00 +0000

First of all, I know this movie is not one of the newest movies out, but it is a good

movie. This movie is about a little girl who gets adopted by a family who believes she

is an innocent little girl. The little girl comes into their home making it seem like she's

an angel and a perfect daughter for them, when she's really not. As she does whatever

she can to destroy their family, they discover a very interesting, but somewhat scary

secret about her, a secret you'll find out when you watch this movie, if you haven't

already seen it.

I've seen this movie a few times and I think it's really interesting. There is a lot of

excitement in this movie, at least that's what I think. If you've seen it and think I'm

wrong or something different, make a comment and share your opinion about.

One Warm Coat(:

noreply@blogger.com (Jenniee Yo!) — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 23:00:00 +0000

Have you noticed lately the weather going on? Freezing cold and rain! Worst mix ever, but here's another thing to think about; the people that have to survive through this weather without a jacket. In my opinion, this is very sad and unhealthy. If you were to stand out in the rain and it's very cold at the same time, you would get very sick! Point blank; it's FREEZING!

If you are a person with a kind heart and feel bad for these people, here's an idea; look through your closet for a coat you never wear. What sounds like a better idea; throwing away something that you don't need, or giving it away to someone that really needs it? In my opinion, I would go with the second idea. It's better to give than to waste.

It's not that hard either. All you have to do is go through your closet and look for a coat that you don't need/wear, bring it to school, and make someone's life warmer. This is a thoughtful thing to do and will make someone happier. Trust me, you'll feel good at the end of this because you'll know that someone out there will be warm for this Christmas.

Student Government: Inside Access

noreply@blogger.com (Chris Whitmore) — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 22:55:00 +0000

Good afternoon LPS community. Today I regret to inform you that I have no actual news to make public. As I stated in previous updates applications would be going out this week for Peer Leaders as well as Grade Level Committees.

Unfortunately, for various reasons both the Peer Leaders as well as the Student government have lacked consistency with making the applications. As it seems at this point either we will wait until we return to release the applications or find a way to quickly pull it off this week.

Today is a very brief article and I do expect to have a complete report posted tomorrow after the meetings to discuss next semester. For complete information please check in here tomorrow. Thank you very much.

What Should I Say?

noreply@blogger.com (Jenniee Yo!) — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 23:05:00 +0000

Hey! I'm back with information that I have been learning recently in Ms. Wolfe's Academic Leadership class. This week we are talking about how people see themselves and what can be some serious outcomes. One serious question that we focused on today had to do with what some people may have on their mind: "How should I tell my friend that I think he/she has an eating disorder?" These few simple and easy steps can probably help you figure out how to do this and how to help your friend get out of a serious problem.

P.S. This can work for almost any problem.

The first step would be to find a place where you could sit down with that person and have a serious talk. Make sure there are no distractions around you because he/she won't really listen to you.

The next step is to recap on moments that you felt you knew what was going on. For example, "I remember when we went to the resturant in San Fransico, you ..." and continue with what you have been noticing.

Step number three: ask your friend to talk about your concerns with a professional. For example: doctor, counselor, nutritionist and any other professional with knowledge about these types of things. Also, make sure you're the one who scheduled this appointment and go with them to make sure they actually go.

Next, try your best to avoid arguments. If your friend refuses to accept the fact that you might know about their secret, simply restate your feelings and show them that you will be a supportive listener.

Step number five: do not make your friend feel ashamed or guilty. Try not to say the "you" statement. For example: "You need to stop being like this!" Try to say "I", that way, they'll know your concerned about them. For example: "I'm concerned about you because.."

This next step is a step that I think is the most important. Do not make them think there is any easy way out, but at the same time, let them know that you are there for them. Try not to say something like "If you stop, everything will be okay." This is not good because you're not letting them know the reality; they have a serious problem and it's not an easy way out.

The final step is to simply remind your friend that you're there for them and your willing to give them all your support, love, and care.

Student Government: Inside Access

noreply@blogger.com (Chris Whitmore) — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 22:59:00 +0000

Good afternoon LPS community, this is your Inside Access report for December 9th, 2009. As I posted in my most previous Inside Access report the Student Government will be starting Grade Level Committees.

For those of you who stopped by the Peer Leader/Student Government table we might have handed you a piece of paper describing the committees to you. Currently, we are planning out the application process for becoming a committee member and once we have settled agreements we will be able to establish the groups.

As I stated before, we do plan to have the committees up and running by the time we return from Christmas break. Although the committees are open for anyone to run for we will acknowledge distinctive candidates that we believe are well prepared for the job.

In other news, the Peer Leaders are looking to recruit more members. The Peer Leader interest sheet was completely filled on both sides on Thursday. I am very pleased that so many people have gained an interest in the organization. Like the Grade Level Committees we will be starting to recruit new Peer Leaders at the end of this month to begin work in January. We are expecting to promote these to group more in the very near future.

That's all for today everyone. Have a great afternoon, stay warm and check in with me tomorrow. Your access has been expired.

Hey...

bautista.carina@gmail.com (cAriNa) — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 22:49:00 +0000

A:I would like to be able to turn into whoever I want to be like the blue lady in XMEN.

Q: What's your favorite commercial?

A: The old Coca Cola commercials with the polar bears in it because the polar bears are cute.

Q: What time did you fall asleep last night?

A: At 12 am because I was doing my homework.

A: I would do either one because my mom has told me that I have done both of them before. So it wouldn't make a difference.

LPS College Day

noreply@blogger.com (Chris Whitmore) — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 22:01:00 +0000

Last Thursday we participated in LPS Richmond's first annual College Day. To recap what took place, we gathered outside on a very chilly morning, heard three guest speakers, went to a workshop, experienced what it's like to have the chance to sign up for clubs, saw two performances, and then went back to workshops to finally gather for one last Family meeting.

College Day gave us insight into how to afford college, how to write personal statements, how to get involved on campus, and much more. The La Raza group from U.C. Berkeley did a fantastic job of providing us with the speakers and information best fit to enhance our preparation for going to college.

College Day took a lot of hard work from the Cal students, who took time out of their learning to do what they did for us, the Peer Leaders, as well as the staff who helped to make this day move smoothly. But, most importantly, Ms. Barrios.

Ms. Barrios has been working extremely hard to make going to college become a reality for every student at LPS and what she organized for us was nothing less than a great experience. Year one was a success and it will only get better next year!

Bautista Again...

bautista.carina@gmail.com (cAriNa) — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 15:08:00 +0000

window to go to a kick-back.

A: Because that isn't what they intended to sell.

Is Disney Tricking Kids' Minds?

noreply@blogger.com (Jenniee Yo!) — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 23:20:00 +0000

In one of my classes - Ms. Wolfe's - we are talking about health and how people physically see themselves. In other words, we're learning about how people see themselves on the outside and what can lead to this. Then Ms. Wolfe made us think, is Disney tricking little kids' minds?

Believe it or not, a lot of people's beliefs about themselves are influenced by TV, magazines, movies, commercials, ads, and even Disney. Even though most people may have not noticed it before, even Disney is tricking little kids by showing them the difference between "the good" and "the bad" just by the way someone looks. Here's an example:

On the bottom we have the evil Ursula from one of Disney's famous movies, The Little Mermaid. Little kids could automatically point her out as the villain for many reasons, but all because of how she looks physically. First of all, she has the evil smile. Second of all, she has the short nasty white hair, and there's other negative things about her; the mole, long nails, double-chin, "chubby" etc.

On the other hand, we look at the girl at the top. This is the sweet princess Ariel also from The Little Mermaid. Anyone can say she's "the good guy" because of the way she looks. First of all, she's picking flowers like a nice, innocent girl. Then there's her physical features that make people and even kids think, "I have to look like her so I can be the nice person!" All of this just because she has long beautiful hair, the perfect smile, red lips, slim figure etc.

My point in all this is: why do people think just because someone "looks good," they're automatically the good person? Then people think that if they "look bad," they're the bad guy. People worry too much about what other people think of them and of how other people look instead of just worrying about themselves. This is defiantly NOT healthy, mentally or physically. These kind of things can lead people to worry too much to the point that they do crazy things like crash diets, starve themselves, and some don't even eat. These things can lead to eating disabilities, Bulimia, and even Anorexia! That's crazy and it's seriously not healthy.

This might all sound crazy, but these things can happen just because someone thinks they "look bad".

This is Me...

bautista.carina@gmail.com (cAriNa) — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 22:56:00 +0000

Hey, this is Carina coming to you with another interview. The most recent person I have interviewed is Delleon Brown, and these are a couple of questions I asked him...

Q: Do you prefer Target or Wal-Mart?

A: Target because they have better clothes.

Q: What is the worst advice you have ever taken?

A: "Don't look down," when rock climbing because it's the first reaction.

Q: What is one thing you've been teased about?

A: My head because people say it's big.

Q: If you had to eat one thing for the rest of you life, what would it be?

A: Pizza because there are many varieties.

Q: What's one thing that always makes you happy?

A: Besides girls, dancing because it helps me express my feelings.

Q: What is one thing that really makes you mad?

A: People who talk mess but don't really do anything.

Q: What are some things that scare you?

A: Small places because I get a weird feeling like claustrophobia; Death because it is a normal thing to be scarred of.

Q: Who can always cheer you up no matter what?

A: John Stewart, AKA John John, because he's funny.

Q: What's your highlight of the week?

A: The performance that's taking place on Wednsday because it's the first time I will be performing.

Q:What's the bravest thing you've ever done?

A: I saved my little brother from this one old girl.

Friday Poetry Slams

noreply@blogger.com (Mr. Madway) — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 22:32:00 +0000

We had our first lunchtime poetry slam of the year on Friday, and the word is that there are many more to come.

"I Am Not"

ltamayo26@gmail.com (luis tamayo) — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 05:00:00 +0000

Hello LPS community. Last week I presented a poem in English class. Now, I want to share it with the readers of the blog. The title of my poem is...

"I Am Not "

I am not chasing the American dream; I am chasing my dreams.

I am not Richmond, but I live in Richmond, the city of pride and purpose.

I am not part of the negative stereotypes that are said about the neighborhood I live in.

I am not part of the foul play that goes on in Richmond.

I am not a nerd, but my grades are still in tact.

I am not a genius, but I'll be the first in my family to graduate high school.

I am not the one who can fly, but I need to so I can follow my dreams.

I am not the one who dreams of being rich. I just want to live a normal and healthy life.

I am not a big fan of public speaking, but I'll need to so I can accomplish my career.

I am not the one who stereotypes other people because I know stereotypes are said about me.

I am not a big believer of opinions because it's just an opinion not a fact.

I am not the one who believes peace will ever be achieved in this world.

I am not the one who gets in any type of trouble.

Finally, I am the one who believes in my self, and the goals I am going to achieve in the span of my lifetime.

Is The World Really Going to End?

noreply@blogger.com (Jenniee Yo!) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 23:00:00 +0000

So, as many of you know, a lot of people around the world are screaming, "2012! We're all going to die! Ahhhhhhh!" But honestly, do YOU think this is true?

One day, I was watching TV with my dad. While he was flipping through the channels, we stumbled across a show talking about three different scientists and what they thought about this fear that has been going around the world recently.

The first scientist said that he believes that this will "surely" happen. He believes that the Earth is rotating closer and closer to the sun, thus, the world will become close enough that we will all burn. When he said this, all my dad and I could say was, "Wow."

The next scientist said that this will happen because he believes in the Mayan calender. He said that since a piece of the Mayan calender is missing and is nowhere to be found, this means that they're trying to show us that the reason it's missing is because the world will end.

The final scientist simply said that he thinks, "the people that believes this are stupid!" He said this, "How many times have people claimed the world is going to end? The most infamous saying was that it was going to end in 6-6-6 (June 6th 2006) because those are 'the devil's numbers'. But look! It has been a little over three years and we are still here! So what do you think are the odds that this will happen? I believe it's a one in a million chance."

In my opinion, I don't think this is going to happen. I agree with the third scientist because it is true. Another reason why I don't think this is going to happen is because people are more crazy about it and believe it more just because the famous new movie "2012" came out. Trust me, the director and everyone that had to do with this movie are getting a lot of money for tricking the world. Religious people are saying exactly what my mom says, "ONLY God knows when the world is going to end. Not scientist. Not directors."

Do YOU think the world is going to end?

Student Government: Inside Access

noreply@blogger.com (Chris Whitmore) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 22:54:00 +0000

Good afternoon LPS community, this is your Inside Access report of December 1st, 2009. Today in my Student Government meeting I revealed the plans for the Peer Leader comeback. I am very excited to announce that the Student Government will be releasing applications in order to gain more Peer Leaders. The purpose of this is to rebuild our strength by getting more ideas and participation from different people.

I am also happy to announce that for the first time since the Peer Leaders were established, we will be accepting Freshmen. We have recognized that there are some extremely bright and prolific freshmen at our school and we have decided that it would be good to include freshmen to the team.

Speaking of teams, the Student Government is creating Grade Level Committees. A Grade Level Committee is a Student Government organization that allows people in certain grades to be the representatives of their grade. This means that the elected Representatives will be working with the Officers to assure the community that each grade is receiving equal attention. The good thing about these groups are that you do not have to be a Peer Leader, however, you do have to be approved and eligible to run for Rep.

For an application for the Peer Leaders stop by the Peer Leader booth this thursday during the College Workshop Day. More information about both the Peer Leaders and the Grade Representatives will be delivered to you either through Family Meeting or in Advisory. Thank you all very much for reading, have a great afternoon and your access has been expired.
