would be flipped. When substituting at the charter school I found out that they have a higher than average poverty level at their school, where 73% of the children in the school receive free lunches, which is up from 2013 at 65%. Our neighboring Twin Falls county school district runs at a 55% with their charter school runs as low as 28% for free lunches. It is hard to figure out the reasons behind why the poverty levels are so high. This is a farming community and we have a lot of migrants that come

I have a moved twice in my life, with the second and last being the toughest to handle. I began in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland, where I was born in this world. Chagrin Falls, as a I remember it, was a cold place, but not dreary. It was like a unexpected book, one you thought you wouldn’t even read, but eventually grow to love. As a three year old, I moved to Gondrin, a tiny village in France, where I spent my early childhood. Gondrin was different; bright, colorful, and full of flowers

After the students had completed an extensive education, which usually finished around age 20, they would be separated into different Janissary institutions. Some men were offered positions at the palace, where they would have careers as government administrators. There they would act as governors of the many provinces that fell under the territory of the Ottoman Empire. Other Janissaries were destined for a militant career, joining the calvary, where the highest position one might hope to attain

On August 4th, 1892, a horrific murder took place. On that day, a young woman named Lizzie Borden was accused for murder, but some think she is innocent. I believe Lizzie Borden is guilty. She did not have good relationship with her step-mother, there were no signs of anyone trying to break into the Borden home, and she was lying about where she was when the murder occurred, she said she was outside in the backyard but there were no footprints or anything to prove she was. Lizzie Borden is guilty

The Vietnamese culture is one that is complex, from the years of war until today where the country, its culture and economy is booming. Vietnam has had its ups and it downs, but the country’s ability to recover and rebuild is important and has played a significant part with where they stand today. Let’s get into the complex meaning of culture and then explore Vietnam and its culture. If you search the word culture, there are various meanings that will arise. Culture is the total of the inherited

The question that I will be exploring over the course of this essay is: What is the best explanation we can give why Adam and Eve take of the forbidden fruit in the Genesis story of the Fall ( see Genesis 1-3 )? I will be dividing this essay into two sections and look at two aspects: Theological and Philosophical. In regards to this I will also look at the Genesis story and outline three things: 1. The Creation 2. God’s command not to eat from the Tree of Knowledge 3. Expulsion from Paradise The

they could not be more wrong. Especially between Toronto and Wichita Falls, Texas. It may sound obvious but there are geographical differences. For one, in the north we have more clear and fast rivers, and we almost always have a bay. While in the south, the soil is agriculturally more fertile, so in essence we see more farms and large areas of land. Also, there is an incredible difference in population difference between Wichita Falls and Toronto, which is easily amongst the biggest

The Byzantine empire had its start in 330 AD with Constantine moving the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire/Byzantine Empire to Constantinople, present day Istanbul. This created a capital in which nearly no one could fully siege control over for centuries. This all changed on April 5,1453 when Sultan Mehmed II, ruler of the Ottoman Empire, determined that he would defeat the Byzantine Empire and take Constantinople, took action and marched to the city. After a 54 day siege, on Tuesday, May 29,1453

1: The Fall of Constantinople in 1453 was the siege of Constantinople (New Rome), the capital of the Byzantine Empire which took place in 1453. The siege was led by the seventh sultan of the Ottoman Empire, the 21-year-old Mehmed the Conqueror, ruler of the Ottoman Turks, Sultan Mehmed II and his invading army who defeated an army that was commanded by Constantine XI Palaiologos. Consequently, the defeat of Constantinople on 6 April 1453, led to a 53-day siege. This event marked the fall and the

does not correctly do its job. Most cases are actually solved with the correct verdict. The Trial of Lizzie Borden was a confusing court case with many factors that did not add up at first, but eventually, everything did. Lizzie Borden was guilty. In Fall River, Massachusetts on August 4 , 1892, the Borden family’s maid, Maggie Sullivan discovered the bodies of Andrew and Abby Borden. The maid was resting in her bed upstairs after cleaning and heard Lizzie Borden, the
