Around the World Night!
Thursday, February 20, 2014 the Learning Community Head Start Program had Around the World Night. It was for students 3 to 5 years of age that attend The Learning community. Here are a few pictures of the art work they created.
MME Testing Week Information
The link at the bottom is information for 11th Graders, should you have any questions. It might make sense for both Chemistry and English 11 to review the information, particularly the schedule (no late start on Wednesday), what they need to bring, and the “rules” (no phones, no bubbling after a session ends, don’t be late, etc.). This week, I will be calling 11th grade students down who have not completed their pre-registration.
9th and 10th Graders will need to know:
- the schedule –> NO school for them on Tuesday 3/4
- Report to school for 7:20 start on both Wednesday and Thursday (no late start). Room schedules will be posted and sent out later this week.
12th Graders will need to know: (there are a few 12th grade testers)
- No school on 3/4
- Report to school at 10:45 Wednesday 3/5 (lunch will be attached to 1st hour) Hours 1-3 run
- Report to school at 10:45 Thursday 3/6 (lunch will be attached to 4th hour as usual) Hours 4-6 run
- Buses will run for 12th graders approximately 3-1/2 hours later than a normal day (so if their bus normally comes at 6:30 – it should come around 10 – they should talk to their driver).

Michigan Child Protection Registry Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the Michigan Child Protection Registry?
The Michigan Child Protection Registry was created by the Michigan State Legislature in 2004 as a do-not-contact service for Michigan families. The Michigan Child Protection Registry is a free, state administered program that allows Michigan’s families to protect their households from adult-oriented messages.
2. What addresses are eligible for registration?
You can register e-mail addresses, mobile phone numbers (SMS), instant messenger IDs, and fax numbers.
3. What types of adult-oriented messages are my addresses protected from?
Family’s sign up their addresses are protected from messages that advertise pornography, tobacco, illegal drugs, alcohol, and gambling. The newest effort for these types of companies is to text their ads to any cell phone numbers they can find.
4. Does the registry only protect children?
No. The Michigan Child Protection Registry can include:
– Family addresses (both adults and children)
– Addresses in a household where a child is present
– School domains (students and educators)
5. How much does it cost to sign up my addresses?
This is a free program offered to residents by the State of Michigan.
6. How do I sign up my addresses?
Registering your addresses is quick and easy. Go to www.protectmichild.com, click “Protect Your Household Addresses”, and follow the steps to register your household addresses.
7. How can I send my friends information on how to register?
To send your friends, family, co-workers and neighbor’s information on how to register, simply send them a “refer a friend” e-mail after you register, and an automatic message on the Registry will be sent to their inbox.
8. How often do I need to renew the registration of my addresses?
Registrations last for three years with the option to renew at any time. You will receive a notification e-mail reminding you that the three year time period has expired.
9. Are my addresses safe?
Senders of messages are NEVER given registered addresses. Marketers and companies are required to submit their solicitation lists to the state, where all registered addresses are then removed and returned to the sender.
10. What if I receive an adult message after I sign up my addresses?
If you are contacted with a message to a registered address, you should submit the report to the Division of Consumer Protection. The process is easy and allows you to help the state investigate those companies who are not complying with Michigan’s Child Protection Registry Laws.
11. Which state office administrates the Michigan Child Protection Registry?
The Michigan Child Protection Registry is administered by the Michigan Public Service Commission and enforced by the State Attorney General’s Office.
Marketers pay a fee of .007 cents for each address they scrub to the state registry. Funds generated by the program are set aside to fund the Attorney General’s Office in the maintenance and upkeep for the program.

She also is a part of Keystone Boys and Girls Club National Project which focuses on career prep, academic success and volunteer projects.

Selena Mendoza was chosen, from the art department, as Rotary Student of the Month. Selena carries with her a grade point average of an overall 3.1; she also maintains an A standing in my Art III course. Although Selena does not have a plethora of academic achievements, she continues to thrive toward doing something, in her words, no-one in her family has ever done before: attending college. Being the recipient of “Foster Child of the Month” and the potential 1st generation college student, I believe Selena will endure and meet her accomplishment. Research has shown that the more students are engages in extracurricular events and activities, the more successful academically they will become. Selena is attempting just that by participating as a player on her soft ball team, entering countless art projects and competitions just to name a few. Her aspirations of becoming a CSI and a Criminal Investigator are attainable, and I believe she will do just that.
Hanieya Ross plans to attend the University of Houston to pursue a degree in psychiatry. She currently has a GPA of 3.7 and is involved in the African American Student Association, DECA and JV Cheerleading. She has won numerous awards including $500 award for writing. She sets high standards for herself and consistently meets or exceeds them. She takes class time seriously and always shows respect to classmates. In her free time Hanieya babysits and volunteers at a clinic.
Cameron Edwards has been involved in many groups at C-A. These have included: Concert Band, Men’s Choir, Drama Club, Chorale, Broadcasting, and Empathy for All. His most notable accomplishment to date has been being among eight high school seniors in Michigan invited by Pistons legend Rick Mahorn to participate in the Pistons Black History Month scholarship competition. He had only one week to prepare his video and speech for the competition on the themed topic of “Dream Big Detroit”. His speech and video was received with high praise, and he was awarded first runner up in the competition.
