The James Logan Courier

By Tim Ciardella, Courier Football Writer

The James Logan Colts terrific season ended on Saturday night in a heartbreaking loss to Cal High School. The final score was 27-9.

The Colts put up a good fight against Cal, but could not come out with the victory because of a few big plays on Cal's part. The score doesn't illustrate how close the game really was, as Cal scored late in the fourth quarter when the game was truly over.

“Middle School Changes for 2008-09” will be the topic Tuesday night (Nov. 27) when the New Haven Community Forum meets at Cesar Chavez Middle School.

The meeting will be from 6 to 8 p.m. The school is at 2801 Hop Ranch Road.

The closure of Barnard-White Middle School at the end of the 2007-08 school year has provided an opportunity to accelerate the long-awaited modernization of Cesar Chavez Middle School and minimize the effect on student learning. Moving Cesar Chavez to the Barnard-White campus for 2008-09 will allow the modernization to be completed in one year, instead of the multiple years that it could take with students on campus. More important, students will not be attending class at a site where construction is taking place.

LUNCH: Egg Roll with Rice, Milk, Fresh Fruit, Fun Chips
Turkey Ham and Pineapple Pizza

Garden Club is one of the new additions to James Logan High School’s growing variety of clubs.

The club was created due to a suggestion from Julie Panebianco’s former students, Joseph Rodriguez and Krystal Macaraeg, now both sophomores. The students wanted to improve the look of the campus, making it a nicer place. They were also interested in improving the area near the staff lounge, allowing teachers to enjoy their breaks surrounded by beautiful plants.

Sarah Moore Grimké (November 26, 1792 - December 23, 1873) was born in South Carolina, the daughter of a plantation owner who was also an attorney and a judge in South Carolina.

Without question, Sarah’s early experiences with education shaped her future as an abolitionist and suffragist. Throughout her childhood, she was keenly aware of the inferiority of her own education when compared to her brothers’ Classical one, and despite the fact that all around her recognized her remarkable intelligence and abilities as an orator, she was prevented from substantive education or from pursuing her dream of becoming an attorney.
