New York Times Essay Competition
As part of a project in AP English Literature and Composition, learners submitted articles to a New York Times Challenge that connected their current learning of Dystopian Novels to current events found in the 2017 New York Times archives.
New Tech High @ Coppell had four learners recognized for their writings out of over 1,200 submissions. You can read about them here (nyti.ms/2EVuxf1). Zoe Georgulas was a winner of the competition and her essay is published on the NYTimes.com. Kendall Dunn was a runner-up, and Ardi Saunders and Katrina Fisher were honorable mentions.

Genesis Women's Shelter Drive
Did you know that 70% of human trafficking victims are women and girls? Did you know that 35% of women experience physical and or sexual violence? It sounds so crazy that 700 million women were married as children worldwide and 250 million were married before 15. Our Geometry classes have partnered with GENESIS Women’s Shelter. This is an organization created to help the victims of domestic violence - in order to create some different statistics.
What can you do to help? NTH@C is hosting a drive for the Genesis Women’s Shelter summer camp kids. We are currently collecting sunscreen, chapstick, sunglasses, flip flops, healthy snacks & drinks, arts & crafts supplies, toothbrushes, toothpaste, arm floaties, and life jackets. There is a drop off box at the front entrance of the school.
Thank you for supporting those who in great need!
