Interview with Ms Moore- Olivia Sloan
Question 1- How has summit been so far?
Answer: Summit has been great! All of the staff and students have been very kind and my classroom is really awesome. I feel very lucky to be here!
Question 2-What was something you wish was different?
Answer: I wish that the building wasn’t so big and confusing. It’s easy to get lost when you’re new!
Question 3- How did you get into teaching?
Answer: I grew up admiring teachers and paraeducators because my mom was a school librarian. I got to see the whole picture of how much work goes into making the school day possible and the relationships that adults at school build with students. I also had some amazing teachers growing up that really cared about me, which is how I decided to become a teacher myself.
Question 4 - Why do you like creating art?
Answer: Making art is a beautiful way to get to know and express yourself. Sometimes, speaking about a problem or an issue I’m having can be overwhelming, but giving myself the freedom to make art that is reflective of my life is extremely therapeutic. Creating can help me feel calm and grounded when other things maybe feel out of control.
Question 5- Why do you like teaching art/teaching in general?
Answer: I like to teach art because I am passionate and excited about creating with others and making people feel confident in what they’re working on. Honestly, I wouldn’t teach anything else. Also, the students! You guys are pretty funny sometimes.
Question 6- What jobs have you had in the past?
answer: I also am a wedding photographer! Most weekends I am at a stranger’s wedding taking their photos. In college I worked at a grocery store, Maurices, JC Penneys, and occasionally babysat for a while.
Question 7- What sports are you interested in?
I am not a super sporty person, but I’ll watch any sport with the right group of people.
Question 8- Why did you want to be a teacher?
I think like all teachers, I choose every year to teach because there is a chance that I could make a difference in someone’s life. This work feels important even if sometimes it’s not treated that way.
Question 9- What type of art creation do you prefer?
If I am making something on my own, I love to paint. But I am very good at starting a project and not finishing it. I have quite a few in progress paintings, embroideries, drawings, and sculptures that need to be finished when I get inspired to do so.

3 fun facts about you?
༻✦༺
McAlister: I was born on my dad’s birthday. Last school year I read 70 books from the Summit Library. I love to travel (Peru, London, Scotland, and Hawaii are some of my favorite places I’ve been).
Why are you interested in teaching at this school?
McAlister: My favorite thing about Summit is the teachers! We have the best teachers that really care about kids and their learning.
The greatest accomplishment?
McAlister: I’m pretty proud of my own two kids and all of their achievements and the people they have become.
What do you like and dislike about teaching at this school?
McAlister: Like – I like that I have a balance of teaching classes and working in the library. I love helping kids find books that they love!
McAlister: Dislike – I do wish that the library had the capability to be a quieter place. I love it when it’s busy with kids learning, but it’s hard to do presentations or classes in there because it has no ceiling, and we can always hear kids during lunch and passing periods.
What are you most looking forward to this year of school?
༻✧༺
McAlister: I look forward to reading lots of books so I can recommend them to Summit students!

Subway
By: Aubrey Janss
Subway is a Sandwich place. My favorite sandwich is Italian BMT with extra mayonnaise. Most of their sandwiches are very messy. But most importantly, they have a lot of chips. A very wide variety. Most people hate the smell in Subway, but I think it smells amazing. Subway is like Pancharose, you tell them what you want on your sandwich and they make it right in front of you. And no, there is not a drive through.
In my opinion, I rate Subway an 8 out of 10. One reason why I give it an 8 out of 10 is because I don’t like their cookies. Another bad reason is that they are always out of lemonade. One good reason why I gave it an 8 out of 10 is I love most of their sandwiches. They have a lot of options to put on your sandwich.

McDonalds Review
by Emerald S.
Why Dunkin Donuts is Good
by Michaelyn
Dunkin Donuts is a great store if you have a sweet tooth or a craving for coffee. I love their donuts. I like how they are moist and glazed. Dunkin Donuts started in 1950. And it is still open today.
Reasons why I think Dunkin Donuts is good. I think DD is good because of they're donuts. Their donuts are good for many reasons. They are moist, chewy, and soft. They also have drinks. They're good, too. That's why I like DD. If you haven't tried it, TRY IT!!
Any way, those are my reasons I love DD. Hope this actually made you think of how good DD really is.
