JOURNAL TOPIC:

Our current topic is "Life After High School"-- some people see that phrase as an invitation to adventure, some see it as a recovery from something traumatic, some see it as parole, some see it as a big, blurry, unknown.  How do you see it?

AGENDA:
1. Finish this week's Profile In Courage
2. Journal
3. Discuss homework

HW:
1. Work on Literature Analysis #1 (nonfiction & fiction questions are posted here)
2. Title a post to your course blog LIFE AFTER... and either use the post to write your vision for your life after high school, or describe your life after you achieved something great or survived something traumatic* (*remember that this will be publicly accessible, so avoid overly personal dramatic details and focus on the triumph/lessons learned).
