It was about a High school that focused very much on there freshmen. This campus was dedicated to freshmen; they had a social worker and a psychologist all to themselves. There English, social studies, and science classes were all blocked, which means the same 30 people were all 3 classes together. Everyday the block teachers would get together and discuss there students, they would go through every name.
Another thing that they did was, send these kids on a retreat for 2 days in the middle of the year.
The best that they did was "I" Times. These were activities to explore the interpersonal student. They would dig deep into their thoughts, and these activities would allow them to express themselves without feeling uncomfortable.
All in all the conference was great! I got to go to the Mall of America, that place is ridiculous. It is the size of 4 nice malls put together. It has an amusement park in the middle, and an aquarium at the bottom. I could not imagine being there during Christmas!
