SHADOWING DAY

Let me first begin by making a clarification regarding the absence of Kierra and Stephen. We were told they both had health related issues with a parent or their own. Whatever the case may be, they were both very qualified. Kierra is a student from Ms. Eck's second period class, where we had taught a few times. We had chosen her because she had shown a real interest in college. On the second day, she had REALLY grilled us about college, and particularly UCLA. She asked about everything, from the applying process, majors, design, to financial aid, and how she can get it. Ms. Eck, later told us, that she had never shown an interest in college before and hadnt seemed as focused. Stephen has been a consistently good student, and always always focused and alert. We had specifically chosen him because he is very interested in animation. This was reflected in the storyboard assignment, and lots of other drawings and sketches he keeps in his binder/notebook. He has the most pleasant and happy disposition! I really cant imagine there being a mean bone in his body. Ms. Eck, told us, he's a boy who is happy doing his own thing and not interested in getting caught up in the politics of the social scheme at school. He definitely has a lot of potential. Both do.
