I Love Ham – Geek of the Week

by

No video this week because we had Friday off. But I do have an interview for you.

I had my 9th graders pick a geek to interview for their final quarter project and the first one I will share with you is a “conversation” between Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs.

I hope you enjoy learning a little bit about Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple Computers. Maybe you’ll learn something new. For instance, I never knew Steve Wozniak speaks with so many different accents.

This one is only 3:30. Just click play.

Fall Festival at VCS

by

Fall Festival is a time where our students and parents come to school to share food and play carnival type games set up all around school. The evening is topped off by performances by the elementary, middle and high school choirs. It is always a lot of fun and it is a great opportunity to show off what our school is all about.For more pictures check out my Flickr sidebar or click here.

Spiritual Emphasis Week Videos

by

My video class did a series of videos for Spiritual Emphasis Week, and we tried to do a variation on the theme of the week: Direction Determines Destination. You can decide how well we follow this theme throughout the series. In any case, my kids did a great job and we had a lot of fun with it.

Here is a link to the playlist on my Youtube account:

Or you can just watch the embedded youtube clips below. I’d recommend watching them in order. It might make more sense that way.

Vienna Night Run

Your VCS Running Team

A few other staff members and I ran this year’s Vienna Night Run last Wednesday. It is a 4K that starts and finishes in Vienna’s Museum Quarter and follows the length of the main shopping street in the city. So you can imagine this is a street I spend a lot of time on. You know me, shop til I drop every weekend.

It was a nice, mostly flat run and a great way to motivate myself to get back into running. The one thing I found odd about this course were the post-race snacks which consisted of Krapfen, sugar donuts, and a few other assorted pastries. I don’t know about you, but pure sugar isn’t the most appetizing thing to me right after a hard run. Of course that didn’t stop me from eating a donut, but I did have to wait a little while to drop that on my stomach. Also, I’m pretty sure it’s still better than the turkey liver pate I received after the Marathon I ran a couple of years ago.
