This week Mr.Maraedy came into our class to speak. He basically just talked about the history behind charter schools, and why he chose to make McKeel a charter school. The information was useful because I never really realized how much different a charter school was from a public school. He repeated the phrase "...and things like that" a lot, which kind of annoyed me, but overall the presentation was okay.
I know McKeel is supposed to be like the "top school", but really I know friends in public schools that are learning more than I am. They do have better technology, seeing as though Lakeland uses Mac's in their technology lab while we have to use old Dell's that don't work half the time. I think if we represent ourselves as a technology school, we have to be up to date on the stuff.
I won't be back at McKeel next year, so I guess I'll really see how different the two schools are from each other.
