[edit] General Discussion

The graduating colors for the Class of 2007 and tentatively future classes, is black hat, black gown, with a currently undecided tassel color, though that will likely be white, forest green, and maroon, as is the current one, visible in the display case in the front of the school. - Ice Ardor 01:40, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

I will probably expand on the frisbee team later. The sst page should mention eventually: wednesday clubs, chinese food, shadowing, friday and junior seminar, maybe diversity day, and probably some more stuff. TommyMoullet 17:08, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Science Courses

Some students may be interested in what classes occur in a specific year, which is important as far as scheduling goes. So here I've organized a list of classes offered alternating years. I want input to see if this would be more valuable (or better put under a more-detailed cirriculum section)

  • General Chemistry
  • Conceptual Physics
  • Government
  • Economics
  • Computer Literacy
  • Art
  • Foreign Language*
  • Math*
Freshman/Sophomore (B Year)
  • Biology/Health
  • Earth Science
  • Astronomy
  • US History
  • Computer Literacy
  • Art
  • Foreign Language*
  • Math*
Junior/Senior (A Year)
  • AP Chemistry
  • Environmental Chemistry
  • Environmental Issues
  • Field Ecology

[edit] Random comments

geology was a one time thing. and I would put biology and health as bio/health as not to mislead. and if you are going to do science rotating classes, you might as well do all of them(AP Stat, AP English, Adv. World Lit, China, etc.) TommyMoullet 06:05, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Also, courses change from year to year, so it's impossible to tell someone what all classes are available, since they come about partially from demand. So here's what the new and improved list comes out to be. Kinda ugly and long. I think the focus was on what science courses we offer, and it's a bit of a stretch to keep this in the science course section. We may want to consider making a 4-column table of what courses a typical student could choose to take... -Ice Ardor 05:16, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
I agree that the giant list is unwieldly and not very useful, also hardcore wikipedia editors frown upon using lists instead of encyclopdia-like paragraphs. But I am not sure what you would do instead... TommyMoullet 20:57, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My updates

I made alot of updates, today, march 16 2007. They lack internal links as well as a peer review to check over them. If someone could do this and post a reply saying its has been checked I would appreciate it. Thanks TommyMoullet 19:32, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

I put in some more info. If someone could read through it and again check for errors/funny grammar I would appreciate it. TommyMoullet 19:52, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My formating and category additions

I made a bunch of new categories that all need more info. any help to adding more info, or correcting info that I have written would be cool. any other ideas I can implement would be great.

Thanks, TommyMoullet 16:14, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wii Club

As of this year, Wii Club is an official Wednesday club sponsored by Ritter and Weldon. Because of this, it fully belongs in the Clubs and Activities section along with the other Wednesday Clubs. -Twigge 21:30, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Clubs section

I think a different section for after school type clubs vs. wednesday clubs might be more effective than the way the page is now. after school clubs tend to last year round, and have many participants. "wednesday" (in school) clubs tend to be ran by a core group a friends and can disappear depending on the quarter and year. these clubs can hardly be called "extra curricular".

[edit] silverfalls

I need someone to correct my silver falls article for spelling and accuracy as I didnt attend the cabin/dinner/slideshow with the school.
