October 2018

Talk to employers and learn about apprenticeship opportunities.

Landmark works to instill 5 Vital Behaviors that will keep our students on the pathway to success, no matter what they choose to do with their lives. To promote these behaviors, we award Student of the Month accolades to 5 students who have excelled at one or more of these behaviors.

For the month of October those students are the following:

Last week in Child Development, students tied fleece blankets to donate to Primary Children's Hospital.

The last week of this term, students learned about archaeological classification in preparation for their archaeological dig! They then conducted a dig and a site interpretation.

In spite of many days of heavy smoke from the fires burning around us, the Landmark Dragons are moving forward faster than ever. They did stop for a day and help out with a service project. An ooportunity to donate they tops of pop cans to the Ronald McDonald House, cans were donated and the Dragons made quick work removing the tabs from the cans and smashing them. One of our own facultymembers' family will directly benefit from this as their family members recieve cancer treatment. What a great way to be a dragon?

Last week in Anthropology, students learned about the difference between observation and inference in a Garbology Activity. Students sifted through garbage, recorded what they found, and then tried to reconstruct the events that led to the generation of the garbage.

Last week in class students learned that data tells you lots of things, but there are many things data doesn't tell you and we fill in the blanks with our assumptions and biases.
