Between 1990 and 1993 (second half of 5th grade through 8th grade), I attended Park View Junior High in Morton Grove, Illinois. My teachers included Mrs. Stalke (5th grade), Mrs. Porst and Mrs. Ramseyer (6th grade), and several other teachers during 7th and 8th grades. During the last two years at the school, students rotate classrooms for different subjects. Some of my favorite memories at Park View included "Battle of the Books" (a reading competition sponsored by the local public library), the "Mall Project" (a program for computer class where you operated a simulated store), producing various projects in Ms. Spevak's art classes, and the Friday "News Game" in Mr. Dabriel's social studies classes. It was also at Park View Junior High School that I co-produced my first video project, a short program about the history of Morton Grove. It was produced for students at a junior high in Coal City, Illinois, a sister school of Park View. In June 1993, I graduated from junior high and left Park View. As of 2011, two of my teachers are still currently teaching there.
