They have been learning how to think critically about the media they consume—recognizing bias, identifying credible sources, and understanding the monetary incentive media companies have to keep audiences engaged. Students also examined how social media algorithms often prioritize content that sparks strong emotions, which can result in sensationalized stories, spin, and even increased polarization.
The classes also discussed the impact of today’s media environment on our democracy and how it shapes public opinion and civic engagement.
👩🎓👨🎓 These conversations are helping students grow into thoughtful, informed citizens who can navigate the complex media landscape with confidence.
Kick off the celebration at the Annual Ada Powder Puff Football Game this Sunday, September 28th at 6:00pm at the Ada War Memorial Park Stadium!
👉 Admission: $5 for all ages (Sports passes not accepted – this is a Junior Class fundraiser for Prom)

Students in Mr. Ames’ English class didn’t just read poetry today—they experienced it! 📝 Mr. Ames shared that to truly learn rhythm in poetry, it helps to move—put your body in rhythm.
To start, students watched a short video of Michael Jordan and broke down the poem by Hanif Abdurraqib, “It Is Maybe Time to Admit that Michael Jordan Definitely Pushed Off.” From there, they headed outside for a walking practice activity, putting rhythm into motion. 🚶♂️🚶♀️
Hands-on experiences like these make learning both engaging and memorable—way to go, Bulldogs! 💜💛
