“We
try to treat our students with as much respect as we can, and I expect them
to respect my teachers in return”.
Vice
Principal, Mr. Rupert Burey.
By Juan Minella
Mr. Rupert Burey is the
Vice Principal of North Miami Beach Adult Satellite Center. He is the
man in charge of the night school program, in which he has done an excellent
job. In this current summer Session there are over two thousand
students attending the night school program. I asked Mr. Burey what are
the challenges he faces while being in charge of the program? Mr. Burey
replied “getting students to take their courses seriously, to wear their I.
D. badges and to buy books they need. Also having students spend the
required amount of hours in class, and to make them understand, that students
have to earn their grade. Mr. Burey added that the most difficult
challenge he is facing today is finding a Driver’s Education’s
Teacher”. He mentioned that this program is so successful due to the
fact that they accommodate to the community’s needs for education. They
offer G. E. D. classes, ESOL and citizenship classes. Overall this is
really an amazing program that helps people from all different ages.

Junk Food in the
Cafeteria
By: Rennar Oliveira
Stop selling junk food in schools. Kids are becoming overweight and
unhealthy. Schools serve unhealthy food in the cafeteria such as pizza
and cheeseburgers. In the vending machines they have potato chips,
chocolate chip cookies, honey buns and soda. The schools sell more
healthy food and food student will buy and can afford such as subs and
hamburgers so students don’t get overweight and unhealthy. So my
opinion is that the school has to concentrate more in taking care of the
students and serving better food in the cafeteria.
