Check out this article in today’s Leader Post — Photo project looks at life in North Central Regina
What the story fails to mention is all of the hard work of the staff at our school on this project! Our art teacher and one of our English teachers created an entire integrated project that taught the students about photography and journalism while meeting all of the outcomes for ELA A30 (Canadian Voices) and Visual Art 30. This is no small feat! So hats off to you, the unmentioned heroes of the project.

Are we really so hard up for writers/journalists that an entire two credit class comes off sounding like a little project kindly provided by a community member? I might take this back to your classes and suggest some of them consider applying for jobs

The stuff you guys do with these kids never ceases to amaze me. And that is why I am commissioning you to co-plan my semester two timetable with me for next year.
Don’t think I’m kidding.

I’m probably oversensitive, but mentioning first that they took pictures of “alleys and gutters” (who uses the word ‘gutters’ anymore?) seemed a bit negative. The photos look great. Too bad about the education part – I agree with Chelle – they framed it a bit like a do-gooder helping the Scott kids ….
