"I think the merit and demerit system is not fair because, it is supposed to be based on your academics and not for coming to school late; or the clothing your wearing"! This statement came from recent graduating class of 2011 Kaleema Butler when asked how do you feel about the merit and demerit system. Many people disagree with the standards of the school, and wish to find a way to change it. The merit and demerit system was enforced in fall of 2008. Class of 2010 and 2011 are not familiar with this system and are not used to the changes. The past two years there was not a merit and demerit system in place, but the school still had rules that needed to be applied. If broken detention was put upon you, and you would have to attend after school.
This year there was a bright side put into our school system which was called a "Merit". When asked Ayanna Matthews has she ever gotten a merit and why she said,"Yeah, I helped a teach put away the laptop computers away". She gained 5 merits for doing this task which is considered being a good citizen. In this case, it was not a difficult task to accomplish to gain good points. To get a merit you have to follow all directions and fellow teacher or staff of the school has to give it to you for a certain reason, like doing something nice for a student or teacher. Merits are a way of making students do the right thing.
There is always darkness to the light. This darkness is called the "Demerit" system one of Constitution students in the sophmore class; Taneah Martain- Allen states she gained demerits for being late. The school system sees this as being disrespectful for not being on time.. Not following directions is the way most teachers see it and there are many other ways you can get a demerit. For example, lying, theft, fighting, threats and much more. You have to follow directions so you won't be in debt with the school.
Many may say the system is unfair and needs to be changed. Fellow sophmore Brittany Chapman was asked have she ever gotten a demerit and why and she says," Yes, I don't know I just be getting them, I guess good grades"? It seems like merits are given to students more easily when they are not in trouble all the time and it is harder for students with a behavior problem to gain them. It may seem unfair and just wrong, but that is what it seems like in the students point of view.
"Free from bias", that is what the dictionary says the word fair means. In the schools case they may want the school to be that way;but that is not how some teachers act. It seems that the rules are applied to others more than others by the way the students act or their grades. Brittany Davis says," I think the merit and the demerit system is not fair because it is supposed to be based on your academic and not when you come to school late;or your clothing.
In conclusion, the school needs to sit down with the students and come up with a way they can work together to accomplish rules that are not bias or ways not to let it seem that way. Constitution High has come through many things and this is just a bump in the road that needs to be fixed. In other words the system is a good one but it has to be more detailed so that students understand it more.

Civil War Essay:
"Women and the Civil War." Sallie Bingham Center. 03/12/09. For Women's History and Culture. 12 Mar 2009 .
On April 10, 1861 the Civil War began, separating boys from men and north from south. Many were affected during this devastating war soldiers, citizens and especially women. Women were the backbone of families, and were emotionally destroyed by the war while their husbands were gone fighting for the country. It brought most of the north and south women down by the way it was going and how long the Civil War was. Most women took advantage of the war and became spies for the opponent of their side. They made money for their families, which was in much need.
The Union side was the north and fought against the Confederate, which was the south. The Union fought against certain rights that were kept from the slaves, they wanted fair treatment for everyone and did not believe in keeping the slaves bond in which the south believed in. There were many triumphs that were put forth against these sides. They were not paid enough to feed their family and they were separated for a long period of time. The women suffered from loneliness and wished their husbands came back from the war, home to their families.
There are many things that crossed the minds of their spouses while at war. I f they were going to live. If they were going to be disabled. Even if their wives were at home safe and not cheating on them while they went through hell trying to survive. The soldiers living conditions were extremely horrible and they normally got sick during their stay at camp. The tools and technology for helping cure them were very weak and they would get infections or would die. Some would be lucky and have good immune systems to fight off the bacteria they would get from fighting all day; some were not so lucky.

There were not any changes until later in the Civil War when the nurses started learning how to take care of the wounds and actually cleaning them the right way. In the beginning nurses used to just dirty tools with blood still on them from the previous patient. They were very unsanitary because the nurses did not know that it would harm the patient in any way. In fact they thought they were helping them in a big way by hurrying up and cleaning the soldiers up without realizing they still had another patients’ DNA inside others patients body. Later science taught them that bacteria traveled and it was very dangerous to do that.
Women were affected from age birth- death. Young women that fathers were sent away to the war remember the terrible thoughts and dreams they had when they slept. Mothers tried to comforted their children but were sometimes unsuccessful because of the pain and heartache they indoor from the thoughts of someday their father would not come home. Female spies were brutally beaten when caught, and were sometimes killed. Women still tried to make money the best way they could by becoming spies and working in other areas in the war like becoming nurses and working in stores.
"Women of the American Civil War." Civil War Women. 03/12/09. American Civil War. 12 Mar 2009.
There were also other women who became famous during the Civil War time period who were recognized as a great difference in American History. There was Harriet Tubman, she was a female slave who ran away and helped others run away too. There was Harriet Beecher Stowe, she was a female who opened a school and helped fugitive slaves from their slave owners. There was also Clara Barton; she was a female who established an agency to obtain supplies to wounded soldiers. There were many other women contributing to the Civil War in that time period. Of course many men fought in the Civil War but women were the backbone of this long, and agonizing war.
Although many suffered from the Civil War, many also benefited. Women spies would often find information on their opponent; they would tell their side the information and would gain control during that period in time. The women spies would risk their lives to make money but the money was worth it at that time. Spies would get paid enough money to feed themselves and their families if needed. There was no chance of survival if the women spies were caught. When caught they were often tortured until they told who sent them there. Most spies would tell, but the brave ones would die before the opponent found out where they came from. Female spies were lead to becoming spies because some while their husbands were at war; the husbands would not send home enough money to feed the family. Others would join just to find out what exactly was going on during the Civil War. So they became spies to get paid and to be part of the action.
"U.S. Civil War." The History Place. 03/13/09. Civil War. 13 Mar 2009
There was no telling what would happen during the Civil War. Some said the Union would win the war and some said the Confederate would win the war nobody really knew what to expect from this unpredictable dispute; only hopes and dreams came to the citizens of the United States during this period in time. They could only wait and see what would come out of it in the end. Children were always wondering what would be their future, and parents were disappointment on what had became of the United States had become and some hopes and dreams were put on the back burner until further notice of the Civil War.
Blanton, DeAnne. "Prologue: Selected Articles." Women in the Civil War. 03/13/09. 13 Mar 2009.
Females would sometimes appose as a man to become a soldier to join the Civil War. There were many disguises back then and it was possible to get away with it at and cost; which was many. Basically if women were caught in the war, they would be punished by getting kicked out of the Civil War and sometimes is personally punished by the captain. Women also joined the Civil War to get away from personal things that happened in their household or in their family life. They would go and not think about what the consequences were and would only think about the great benefits the Civil War offer. The women that were in the war had to be very careful at all times, not to be caught and thrown out. It was very hard at times because men surrounded them and there was no privacy at all in the camp where they stayed.
"Heart's at Home." Spies. 03/16/09. 16 Mar 2009.
Belle Boyd was a southern women spy that worked for the Confederate side of the Civil War. She carried letters across the enemy lines, and during one of her travels she was caught and arrested; in which she was put in the Union prison. She sacrificed her life for her side of the Civil War line that was the Confederacy. There were many problems in the war that the spies were very helpful to their sides and were dedicated to what they were doing. There were not that many options for women and they had no other choice but to become an under cover spy. There are many other women who did what they had to do to keep their families feed; and there were other reasons why women became spies butt the most common is keeping their families feed.
Women whose husbands were in the Civil War I personally believe suffered the most because their relationships with their husbands were in debt for a long period of time. Wives did not know if they were still alive or dead day in and day out. Most of the soldiers’ wives would cheat on them while they were away at war and their husbands would never know. It was a constant battle when it came to agreeing because husbands would often not know their wives well enough to know her boundaries and wives and husbands would stay together for the family. Never thinking about what they really wanted to do with their lives. Many relationships were on the boarder line and struggled to work, in many cases couples only stayed together for the children or not to put their business out there.
In conclusion the Civil War affected all citizens of the United States in its own way. The south was battling against the north over the rights of our country, and if it was right. But it really affected women; the war took a toll on them the hardest. It al began in the springtime in the year 1861. This is how I feel about the Civil War and what happened during that time period.

I am still in the Summer
Summer time is the hottest season of the year. Pools, summer flings, walks in through the park, vacations, and the bright sun shining in through the window when waking up in the morning. Along with the humidity and mothers telling their children to get a job. To me, it means so much more than that. Maturity, reasonably, adulthood, age and conscience are all the things that describe me in this season.
Reasonability has been put upon me since I was a young child. Chores were in my path as soon as I turned six, which in my parent’s eyes I was a big girl. I had to make sure my room was clean, wash the dishes if there is any in the sink, watch my younger brother and make sure I have great hygiene. Trust was always in me when it came to my parents. Now I have a more responsibilities on the way. I will soon be a mother, which puts more things on my plate. I am in the summer time of my life.
Once I think about my life I feel embarrassed. I see now that I have a conscience and feel bad about the things I used to do when I was younger. I remember stealing toys from the tot store because my mom said I could not have it. I just wanted attention and did not know how to say it. Now that I see what I have done I am more thoughtful and respectful; in which I treat others the way I would like to be treated.
I personally think I am very mature for my age. I am fifteen years old and I stay in the house by myself, cook my own food, and I deal with problems people my age should not be dealing with and I am very strong. People come to me for advice and I have the strength to go to people for help when I need it. I have been through so much and seen so many things that I am used to bad things happening and not even flinching. Sometimes I feel like a twenty-one year old rather than a fifteen year old. Like in the story “Marigold”, Lizabeth was in the spring inn the beginning of the story but in the middle of it she start realizing she had a conscience from the event of her and her friends singing the song to Mrs. Lotte about her finding a penny. I remember seeing myself there back in my lifetime when I was younger. I never really cared about what people felt like when I was saying mean things about them. But then one day I was picking on e some girl in school with my friends and I felt bad at the end of that day. From then on I promised my self that I would never pick on anyone again.
In conclusion, I am in the summer time of life. I am reasonable, mature and respectful which proves that I am in a new season. There are still some days when I go back to my spring days but I remember the times when I once felt bad about doing something. Or things I have been through, in the end it was all worth it. You had to go through a trail before you see the light.

What will I make?
Sleep, tiredness, strechmarks, gas, bull and congrats are all the things we go through.
Mothers’ happy but the age makes her upset, but we still hope that someday it will be a better day.
Worrying about what will happen and if everything will be o.k.
Planning for the future and praying that there will be someone there to help.
We are the only ones who see the good side of creating a new life.
I will make a better life for my son. There will be nothing he can’t have.
I will make myself finish school and still be there for him.
I will make a career and still follow my dreams, even though I have a son.
I will make a home for him and our future will be bright.
That is what I will make….

"The Whipping"
“The old woman across the way is whipping the boy again”. Have you ever said this to yourself when you hear the screams and cries of a young child getting their punishment? Robert Hayden will have you take a second look with this excruciating poem, “The Whipping”. Punishment and pain that a young boy goes through. Connections in the poem seem strange until you look at it in another state of mind. Narrator Robert Hayden experiences pain from the past thoughts and will have you think is that really what that young boy deserved.
First reason why I loved this poem is the powerful punishment that the young boy undergoes. According to the poem, “she strikes and strikes the shrilly circling boy till the stick breaks”. Which means that the old woman puts terror in the young boy by putting a stick to his skin. Wrongful doing does not occur on the boy side beats the young boy through a state of pain. The old woman experienced, “_exhausted, purged”, pain that showed she was passionate about the topic.
Another reason this poem caught my attention are the connections that questioned my reading. Narrator Robert understands and has many to do with this poem. He brought up, “Words could bring, the face that I no longer knew or loved”; which meant to me that he too was touched by the poem. The boy does not necessarily say that he is related to the old woman but by the looks of it, the way he treated the boy it showed love.
Last reason why this poem has touched me is because the personal affect on the characters and myself. “My head gripped in bony vise of knees, the writhing struggle to wrench free, the blows, the fear worse than blows that hateful”. This quote from the poem shows that the narrator felt somewhat of the same pain the boy was feeling; there is a possibly that the narrator also experienced beatings as a child. Personal feelings that I had were pain, sadness, and fear that I once experienced when I seen a period in my life like this. Once I saw a woman beating her child in the supermarket because he was crying too loud. This poem brought me back to this scene, and it also brought the narrator back to a certain part of his life.
In conclusion, “The Whipping” was very painful, and full of violence that got my attention. Punishment and questions were the main reasons why I continued to read this poem. Rhyme and the way I felt personal connection also consumed me. Robert Hayden is a truly powerful poet, I am happy I read this poem and I recommend everyone to read this. Especially if you have ever been whipped.

My Reflection on N.H.D.
Monday 26th of January 2009/10:23a.m.
Today we found out who made it to City-Wide Compation on the National History Day Project we have beeen working on for about four months. My partner and I did not make it but I am just releaved that it is over. We worked so hard on this project and personally I think we should have made it. Our project was about "The Investagation of Amelia Earhart". Which meaning our project was about Amelia Earhart's death and her life; we tried to figure out what happened to her. In the end my partner and I came up with a theory of our own. We thought it was going to be a great project but I guess I was wrong, a lot of people thought wasa great topic but I was wrong. There are a lot of people who I think never should have made it, but I guess there should have been better judges...
