For Adult Education Week, students from Ms. Thompson's PreGED a.m. and p.m. classes were asked to write about the, "Keys to Success." Some questions they were asked to consider were:
* What is your goal or destination?
* Where are you going?
* What are the obstacles in your path?
* How is the San Mateo Adult School helping you get there?
Each student was assigned a number with only Ms. Thompson knowing who belonged to which essay. Then, three readers were asked to read the essays and award them First, Second, Third, and Honorable Mention.
This process of writing, editing, refining, and rewriting takes time. So does the judging. Also, Ms. T was out recuperating from hand surgery, so students didn't find out the winners until June 7th!
First, we would like to thank our readers Carlota Zuniga, Ron Beall, and Eric Saavedra.
The winners are:
Honorable Mention AM class: Lawrence Boyle
Third Place AM class: Isaias Lantan
Second Place AM class: Narciso Hernandez
First Place AM class: Reina De Los Santos.
Honorable Mention PM class: Saul Sanchez Lopez and Christian Duran
Third Place PM class: Gustavo Rosas
Second Place PM class: Simone Coelho
First Place PM class: Emerson Torres Jr.
Participation certificates were issued to all who took part.
To announce the winners, a class party was held. Mr. Saavedra and Mr. Tim Doyle attended, handed out the prizes, and listened to the students read their essays aloud. Our heartiest congratulations to all participants.
