Stanislaus and Yosemite
September 12, 2006 6:52 pm - By: Jamie
Nicholas' has a really nice place. It has a living area, four bedrooms a small kitchen and a bathroom. Did I mention that the kitchen even has a dish washer!! (Talk about spoiled).
The campus is extremely scenic with a lot of greenery, ponds, waterfalls, rivers, bridges. It is a photographers dream comes true; so much many beautiful stops to take pictures. While Nicholas gave us a tour I could not resist taking pictures. For the most part the boys went ahead and hung out while I enjoyed taking picture of the beauty and the occasional shot of Nicholas and Chris. I do not know how the school is academically or how the residential life is but I will definitely be recommending Stanislaus to my students as a beautiful school.
On other notes:
School is continuing to go well. I have my days that I am exhausted, usually Wednesdays and Fridays when I have three 90 minute classes, but I am chugging through and learning a lot along the way. Some of my goals for this month are to get my curriculum planned out until Thanksgiving and to get more organized. Tomorrow is open house; it will be interesting meeting parents. Also grades need to be in soon, grades are so hard to give, I wish I did not have to give Fs, I wish some of the students cared more, if they just did their work they would be in a lot better of shape.
Off to lesson plan…
