The Retreat

starting my service path the summer of my 8th grade I have found my passion to help others. I have served for over 400 hours since then but it has felt like less because it is what I love. I want to be a senior leader for the Freshmen Retreat and hopefully the Sophomore Retreat. I want to be able to help or just spend time with people from Pius and outside communities. I want to serve more often if that’s at school or at locations in my community. My expectations for in class is to learn from everyone

I started my facilities and scheduling project by researching the policy manual for WCPS. I then interviewed head custodian Ron Crockett from Rural Retreat Elementary School. I then interview the Vice Principal from Rural Retreat High School Rolland Cook. Mr. Cook has now served as Vice Principal at George Wythe High School, Fort Chiswell High School and Fort Chiswell High School. This project has showed the importance of hiring quality employees as good custodians help make the school run smoothly

Glacier retreat will greatly affect polar and aquatic ecosystems and animals. Most arctic life revolves around the sea and presence of sea ice. Without the presence of ice, most ecosystems will be recreated. Polar bears are one species in great danger. Polar bears use sea ice as a birthing and hunting ground, and also use it to travel from one place to another. As glaciers start to disappear, the mother polar bear has less access to food; therefore, the chance of survival for her and her young is

and I figured it wouldn’t hurt to have another extracurricular activity during the school year. I didn’t know at the time how much the trip would impact not only my view of myself, but how I view other people and their experiences. The LifeSavers Retreat is a three day trip involving high school students from multiple schools, so I got to meet a lot of amazing people that I would not have gotten the chance to know without the trip. While I did enjoy the

thought it was funny and exciting. What Richard should have done instead of fight, was to go inside the house when he saw the white boys heading toward that way. He thought he could beat them by hiding, but he didn’t, instead he got hurt. “During the retreat a broken milk bottle caught me behind the ear, opening a deep gash which bled profusely” (Wright 663). If, he had already been inside the house, he would never have gotten hit with a broken milk glass bottle. His mother was right to tell him not to

Christmas Retreat, Kids, blue print message Aim Teach about the 4 spiritual laws, and Christmas. Blend these 5 points throughout the lessons. Express God’s most loving identity as Father of Mankind in Creation. Creation-God, the excited Father to be was like parents expecting a new baby. Like a child’s parents, God prepared everything for us.(Gen 1). Not only did God create us, but before we were created, he created this world, and everything in it for us. Mankind fell when God’s children disobeyed

Introduction The cryosphere consists of all frozen water on earth. It is found in the high northern and southern latitudes of the planet. The components of the cryosphere include the following: sea ice, glaciers, ice sheets, ice shelves, snow cover, freshwater ice, and frozen groundwater. The cryosphere plays an important role in cooling the planet. The cryosphere, being ice, has a high albedo. The accepted albedo of ice in the cryosphere is .6 or 60%, meaning ice reflects 60% of incoming shortwave

It is no secret that the magnificent glaciers that cover this earth are facing negative repercussions due to climate change. Pratima Pandey verifies this statement in her article by stating that “it is the climate that is the driving force controlling the mass balance of a glacier in space and time, resulting in the recession and advancement of a glacier,” (Pandey, par. 1). The earth is getting warmer, and this means that soon, glaciers will start to disappear. While the earth naturally produces

In 1948, Highsmith moved into the Yaddo artist 's retreat, a community which aims to "to nurture the creative process by providing an opportunity for artists to work without interruption in a supportive environment” (Yaddo). During her time here, she lived generally disconnected from the outside world and completely immersed herself in her writing. When not working on her novel, she was journaling. Murder, she wrote, “‘is a kind of making love, a kind of possessing.’ She described it as feeling ‘quite

Russia. As a result of disease, the deserting of troops, and the killing of forty-five thousand Russian troops, Napoleon was victorious. Unfortunately, the city of Moscow was ablaze and Napoleon and his troops retreated in what is known as the “Great Retreat.” This disaster ultimately led to the defeat of Napoleon. He attempted to sneak into France and was successful. However, his bloody defeat in the battle against the British and Prussian army led to the end of his reign in 1814. Before Napoleon was
