Heroism – Point Blanc For the past few English lessons, I have chosen and read the book Point Blanc by Anthony Horowitz, the second book of the Alex Rider series. When Alex was at school, he would just be like all the other students; going to lessons, doing stacks of homework that his teachers had given. But Alex was actually a secret agent that works for the M16. This wasn’t his job until his uncle – Ian Rider – had been murdered a few weeks ago and M16 had forced Alex to take his uncle’s place as a secret agent. In Point Blanc, Alex was summoned on a mission to find connections between the school - Point Blanc, and two deaths that had happened earlier with clues and suspicions that drove towards the school.
Chapter 1 Jesse Oliver Aarons was a fifth grade student. Jesse has gotten up every day in the morning in the whole summer, so he could be the fasted runner in the fifth grade when the school opened up. Chapter 2 Jesse Aarons seems be happy in school. He liked to draw. Jesse wanted to become an artist when he grows up.

“High school teacher lined up students during class – Fired BLANK GUNSHOTS at them.” April 23, 2012 This source explained it was an attempt to regain control over his class. After a stunt like this he will always have their attention. Why he did it will always help an argument one way or another. This source could be one of the most helpful. I yet again used google, and well it still hasn’t failed me.
Students in schools are permitted to carry identification cards on them at all times when on school campus. Local law enforcements are now putting officers in the hallways, to post security during the change of classes and to patrol the campus grounds during class time. Last would be the installation of cameras on school buses to monitor the bus riders. Administrators in schools have begun to show zero tolerance on things that students say, write, or show that might indicate any act of violence upon other students. For example, six students in Decatur, Ill. were expelled from school for one year for fighting at a high school game.
Anyway, through school Justin and I as well as the rest of the groom’s men had almost every class together for four year, so we got to know each other pretty well. If you know Justin he’s one of the most calm and cool people you’ll ever meet, but one day it all changed. The day he met Valerie Justin’s calm and collective side began to get a little nervous………. I don’t know if Valerie even knows this but during the first probably six months of them dating, Justin used to text me before their dates and ask me what he should wear, during the date to tell me what was going on… we called that the play by play, and then after the date to recap the night. He even went so far as to meet up with all the groomsman and I before he proposed and showed us the ring to get our opinions…..
Joe used dictatorship to control and manage the school when he became its principal. For example; in his first meeting with the staff, he was going around giving orders and shuffling teachers into new positions. He even said, "Discipline is not the enemy of enthusiasm. This is not a damned democracy. We are in a state of emergency and my word is law", verifying that he approves of dictatorship and thinks it is the only way to control school.
We were going to rule the school, was going to be the best school year of my life. We had so much to look forward too, and we knew that this school year was going to fly by between homecoming, spring break, prom, and graduation; no one knew which was going to leave the most memorable memory. As the school year continued to go in full force, we started to prepare for all of the different activities. The first main event that took place was homecoming, in Germany or at least my high school homecoming is where all of the different sports actually have a home game. It made for a fun filled weekend.
After joining the gang I realized that I wasn't myself and it opened my eyes to many things. It will always be a big part of my life because now i know how to interact with all types of people under any circumstances. Walking into Salesian High School everyday was the worst feeling I've ever experienced. Most freshman love going to school to see your friends and to learn, but not in this case, I always had to watch my back no matter where I went. For example my math teacher left the class for 5 minutes to use the bathroom one day, I was sitting down doing a task then two kids got up and started kicking me and pouring all my things out of my back pack.
Schools are also starting to give kids laptops to take home to do homework. It would be so easy for a student to log into Facebook or another website and start bullying. Name calling such as nerd, jerk, four eyes, shrimp, pee wee can hurt a young child’s feelings. A little girl or boy who is in the 2nd grade has to wear glasses because he or she has trouble seeing the chalk board. There is a bully who is calling him or her four eyes every day the child comes to school.
