The Option Pathway Class has been discussing the minimum wage question plaguing our country today.
After reviewing Morgan Spurlock's "30 Days" episode "Minimum Wage", students went online to the wv.headed2.com interactive website to answer questions regarding what type of lifestyle they would like to maintain in the next 10 years. The students were encouraged to select different states in order to compare the cost of living across the nation and create their own realistic budgets.
WORK Program students are currently in the middle of their first two work placements. Students are working one day in both Clarksburg and Bridgeport.

Student's in Hannah Mick's Pre-K Class at Wilsonburg learned the nursery rhyme, Humpty Dumpty Sat on a Wall, and then expanded that into an experiment to see how they could have protected Humpty Dumpty from his fall.
Students then reviewed their poster and concluded that only the cotton balls, tissue paper, and pool noodles protected Humpty because they cushioned Humpty's fall.
