I have been teaching in the Muncie School District for two years now at East Washington Academy (EWA). I student taught first grade here with my mentor teacher Michelle Bergren. It was such a joy after student teaching to be selected as a first-grade teacher.
Indiana should not restrict cities from holding puppy mills accountable.
With a long and illustrious legacy to uphold, the re-release of Persona 3 is just as astounding as its name suggests. Adding new features and loads of content, Persona 3 Reload is just as memorable and outstanding as it always has been.
Even years later, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes returns to the dystopian world of the Hunger Games with new characters and a new story. With a revival of the themes of humanity and corruption, The Hunger Games sees a new life in a old perspective.
