We saw it done at other high schools and we thought it would be really fun.

In each attendance zone, the most recent high schools that we have were designed to be career and technical academies.

It's an issue everywhere. There has been a cutback in fast-food advertisements for children and schools are starting to remove soda from the machines and replace it with things like Gatorade.

I just tried to go out and have fun. I just focused on hitting beam. Tonight was good, except for bars. I was nervous.

In the late 1950s, self-esteem hadn't yet been invented. High schools saw their sole mission as preparing students thoroughly for academic work.

We think the concept is great. It will be a lot of fun to see where it ends up.
