Second Semester Begins

Now that finals are through and we are beginning to get into the groove of second semester, I will give you an update on St Mary's. After finals, we had Winter Formal. I went with a group of friends and we ate Chipotle before. It was lots of fun, but I was so tired at the end from finals and dancing that I slept for the rest of the weekend. Then, second semester started. My new schedule goes like this:
French 3
Intro to Computer Science
Social Justice and Leadership
Pre-Calculus
American History
Economics
English 11
So far, everything has been great. In French, we are learning a variety of new electronics vocabulary. In Computer Science, we are coding with Python and Swift. On the first day of class, we dissected a computer, which was very cool. In Social Justice and Leadership, we are planning the retreat for the Sophomore class, while looking into the social justice problems of the world and America. In pre-calculus, we are learning about imaginary numbers and conic sections. American History is all about World War I and the beginning of the 1920's with Hoover. In Economics, we are trading in a fake stock market and learning a variety of economic terms, such as supply and demand. In English, we are reading Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and studying for the AP test. So far, second semester has been amazing!
Talk to you soon,
Emma
