1st Annual ASL Song Showcase
1st Annual ASL Song Showcase
The ASL 3 students have been working for 2 months interpreting the song of their choice.
Many people think ASL is the same as English, but it has a very different grammatical structure. The students spent countless hours finding the meaning of their song and researching the proper signs to convey that meaning. Twelve students volunteered to perform their songs at our 1st Annual ASL Song Showcase. They did an incredible job performing for family and friends!

Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

About National History Day
National History Day is a year-long academic program focused on historical research, interpretation and creative expression for 6th- to 12th-grade students.
By participating in NHD, students become writers, filmmakers, web designers, playwrights and artists as they create unique contemporary expressions of history. The experience culminates in a series of contests at the local and affiliate levels and an annual national competition in the nation's capital in June.
This year's theme is Rights & Responsibilities in History.
