During my time in Senior Capstone I have learned an incredible amount of eye opening information. There are so many problems in our world, and not just outside of the United States but also within our very own country. I feel that Mr. Pike, Mr. Denzin, and Mrs. Denzin have done an excellent job of bringing these issues to our attention while also teaching us the responsibilities of being a young student which can have an effect on our society big or small. Our teachers have told us on how to take action, big or small, against these issues and what we can do about them. By teaching us to help in our community, donate our time and money, or, in my opinion the most important way to take action, by bringing the issue to the attention of the masses. This is truly important to an issue because if nobody knows of the situation than they can't take action to improve the issue. By teaching us the tools and ways to tackle issues in our world, I believe that Mr. Pike, Mr. Denzin, and Mrs. Denzin are truly doing a tremendous job at teaching us.
When it comes to what i'v taken from this course there are many changes that I have integrated in to my life thanks to this course. After our food and water areas of study I can proudly say i'v stopped eating fast foods and have tried to eat only organic foods and correctly fed and free roamed meat. I'v also successfully stopped drinking high sugar drinks including soda while also trying to pack my own water bottle where ever I go. I'v also learned while doing my community service of a new sense of the community. To have the community thrive you can't be selfish in your needs as well as helping out local stores economically to keep the community afloat. I believe by taking Senior Capstone I have taken a new perspective at my life along with the community in which I live in.
I believe that the class is very strong in what it teaches us students. Theres only one thing that I think could be improved in this class. I believe although the trips out of the country to help others is important, that being students with limited cash these trips are a little unrealistic. I think we should focus a little more on our community and city instead of these expensive trips. We could also use the money for the trip for projects in our community to improve and help it. Other than what i'v stated I believe this class is very strong in how it works and how it teaches us, the students, through service.
