Today, everyone was back from Spring Break, and a lot of people looked very tired - it's difficult to get back to waking up in the morning. Students have heard back from most of the colleges, it seems, and are making their decisions. One young man in Mr. Ambrose's physics class is going to Hampton, in Virginia. A young lady in the same class is trying to decide among Harvard, Yale, and Princeton. It sounds like the choice will come down to either Yale or Princeton for her - all are well-respected schools, of course. Of course, quite a few are going to Eastern. In that class, no one has selected the University of Michigan, but in Ms. Colwell's advanced algebra class, there are several juniors who have said they might consider Michigan.
In both classes, they were reviewing. Mr. Ambrose is giving a physics test, on light, tomorrow; Ms. Colwell is giving a quiz tomorrow on logarithms. The students all needed the review - many people forgot a lot over the break.
On Friday, we'll be testing the bridges in physics. If I remember my camera, I'll get some pictures of them, and post them, either as part of the blog post or on CTOOLS.

I'm curious as to whether having a high achieving student like the young lady serves as motivation for the other students in her classes...
