Want to travel to China with me?

I am really excited to announce that Sara Dahl-Wyland and I are recruiting students to go to China with us the summer of 2020.  We think this trip will be a great opportunity for our AP Human Geography, AP World History, and AP Comparative Politics students to apply what they have learned to modern China! 

The trip will be 12 days and we would go to Bejing, Xi'an, Chengdu, Dujiangyan, and Shanghai.  The trip has some cool features like a visit to a panda research center and getting to see the Great Wall of China. 

Sara and I will be hosting info sessions at both high schools to talk about the trip.  Feel free to come to either one.

Nobel Creativity Opportunities Tri 2

The Gifted and Talented department will take Nobel students to the History Theater on Thursday, February 22nd to see “A Crack in the Sky”.  This will be its world premiere and it features two local playwrights, Harrison David Rivers and Ahmed Ismail Yusuf. The play is described as, “ From Somalia to the U.S.A. 1984.  A young shepherd boy stands in front of his mother to tell her of the decision he has made in the night. He has had enough of the nomadic life, of herding goats and sheep, and is leaving to seek out a better life. With that, he sets off on an adventure that takes him on the road less traveled from Somalia to Minnesota. It’s the epic tale of Ahmed Ismail Yusuf who, inspired by Maya Angelou, discovers the power of the written word.”   For more info go to:  http://www.historytheatre.com/2017-2018/crack-in-the-sky We hope to use this experience to give students exposure to local authors.  We plan to follow up on this field trip by me...
