Goodbye Max (Mighty) and Freak (Kevin)

~We finished reading Freak the Mighty by Rodman Philbrick today!  What an awesome novel!  Kevin passed away in the end.  His story of getting a new bionic robotic body was all made up.  He created this story to protect his friend Max from the truth of his condition.  Kevin knew from an early age that he would not live a long life.  This was an awesome story of friendship and perseverance.

Ax Handle Saturday

~While learning about the early 1950's today in Social Studies, we learned  about an event in Jacksonville from over 55 years ago that would change our city forever.  This day would become known as Ax Handle Saturday.  A group of young civil rights activists sat at a lunch counter in downtown Jacksonville only to be met with angry mobs wielding ax handles.  This event would lead to the desegregation of Jacksonville's lunch counters downtown.  This would lead to the eventual desegregating of our neighborhoods, schools, and businesses.  Thank you to all those who had the courage to stand up and risk their lives to make our city a better place.
