Entrepreneurship Examines Different Economic Systems

Submitted by shelley.heaton on Mon, 09/17/2018 - 12:48

Mrs. Ewell's class has been examining the role of innovation and entrepreneurship activity to society and the economy. To illustrate the differences in operating under different economic systems her classes played Socialist and Communist versions of the traditional Monopoly game. Rule changes included things such as: All Free Parking money has to be divided equally among players, paying the government (bank) twice the rent on railroads and utility spaces, no private property ownership, and no income tax refunds.  Students quickly gained an appreciation for the American free enterprise system and how it helps promote and support entrepreneurial growth in the US.

ALC GRATEFUL TO HAVE AVIATION TEACHER

Submitted by shelley.heaton on Mon, 09/10/2018 - 12:19

Last year at the ALC, we were lucky to have the ability to offer new courses. Some of those courses were the different aviation classes. We were even more lucky to get Mr. Mark Halls to teach these courses.

Mr. Halls is one that the students really connect to and who is very engaged in his students learning. With the fun arrival of the new flight simulator that was delivered close to the end of last school year, the Aviation department has "taken flight", and is now the newest and greatest class that most of the students want to be a part of. 

This year Mr. Halls is teaching Aviation History, Air Transportation, Drones, and Private Pilot classes.  It is fun to walk by his classroom and see the students in the simulator or getting ready to learn about the drones.

Forensics Class Makes Crime Timelines

Submitted by shelley.heaton on Wed, 09/05/2018 - 10:30

Ms. Grant's Forensics classes have been busy creating timelines for a crime scenario that they had created.

They put a lot of work into their timelines and have hung them up throughout the halls here at he ALC. Yesterday, the students had the opportunity to grade each others timeline and give feedback and suggestions to what was great and what other information may have been missed.

Ms. Grant is always good in getting her students engaged in their learning, as well as giving them hands-on experiences.

 WAY TO GO FORENSICS!!
