Applying To New Schools

As a student applying to a new school I know it is hard finding a school that you like since you don’t know the school very well. If you plan on applying to CNG this are some of the thing you will find that you may like.

The music program consists of students who play instruments outside of school, improve his o her skills by a series of different exercises and from hearing the songs they wish to play recreate the song in their own way. Recreating the songs helps them improve their improvisation and hearing skills. It is not easy playing a song just by listening to it. The program includes guitar, base, drum set, piano, and bongos.


Binationals is a sport tournament where athletic teams from American schools around Colombia play against each other. These schools make part of a chain of schools called SACS. In this tournament you find sports such as volleyball, soccer, basketball, baseball, and tennis.
Uncoli stand for Union de Colegios Internacionales which means it’s a union of schools around Bogota, Colombia that are based on countries around the world such as Germany, U.S.A, Colombia, England and many others. This is almost like the binational games including the same sports but it’s only in Bogota. In the male category the finals are usually CNG vs. San Carlos which is the strongest competitor from all the other schools. In the female category the finals are usually CNG vs. Santa Maria.
CCW stand for Classroom Without Walls. This is a program created by the school which includes fieldtrips around Colombia. In these trips student perform a series of activities witch challenge them to take risks and overpass their fears.
Each student is given a house to which they belong to as long as they are in school. There are 4 different houses. Falcon who’s color is green, eagles are yellow, hawks are red and ospreys are orange. During the school year each house chooses 2 representatives 2 vice captains and 2 captains. They also participate in athletic activities and some that involve which house has the most spirit like the cheers competition.
The Hogar is a school that was built by the CNG so students who have fewer opportunities that student at CNG could get an education and make something of their lives. Student from CNG interact with the Hogar student in different activities along the year and helping them perfect their English skills.
In high school student are required to perform up to 80 hours of social service to graduate. These activities are done at school after classes. Student form the alianza schools come to CNG and student interact with them. Its almost the same thing as the Hogar but with student from the alianza schools.
Since CNG is an American school we celebrate the American holyday known as Thanksgiving. 2 days before the holyday student celebrate with different activities with younger students. We build up baskets full of goods and make thank you card for the workers from school. Then for 2 days student don’t have school giving them 4 days including the weekend to rest.

Friendship

1: A real friend doesn't lie to you so you fell better, but tells you the truth even though it hurts.

2: Friendship is like your nose or ears, it never stops growing.

3: A good friend is the one you fight with but you can always work things out.

4: The friends you have as an adult are the ones you meet in college.

5: Its not easy maintaining a friend as an adult, always find time to spend with them.

6: Some say you should keep you friends close and your enemies closer. I say keep your keep your friend close and your enemies way from your friends.

Night Chapter 2

We finally know what is going on. Jewish people taken in wagons to concentration camps. This book keeps on giving information that others couldnt. Elie talks so descriptivly of what happens in Aushwits (one of the main concentration camps). He says how the image of the babies being burnt alife haunted his dreams keeping him up creates an image in our own head of how life would have turned out if we had to live through the same experience Elie had to. this is what meks this book so great. At leats for me. I had never read a book that actually make me feel part of it and react the way I have.

Night Chapter 1

Night is a book that talks about the hollocost wich would be in the 1940's. I thinks its very different to other books about the same topic because its not always talking about the war and how jewish people are being killed in the concentrations camps. It shows a few years before it all happened and the begginig of it discribing how people actually dont know whats happening. all of this is shown in one persons life, Elie. It discribes the people around him like Moshe the Beadle and his family. At the end of the chapter we can see the begginig of this war. What makes this book different is that. as we read through the book we can almost feel the same thing as the main character. Curiousity, our nerves recking us to know what will happen next.
