AP Government strives to become a regular class by Paige Whitney
Staff Reporter
Students are encouraged to take on the new advanced placement class occuring in room 109
AP Government is a “seventh period class.” It
happens after school in Room 109 and is taught by
Darrick Hayman. Last year, not enough students
signed up for the class and so it was moved to af-
ter school; the class was not advertised to many
students.
“The only way I found out about AP Govern-
ment was through a couple of students I knew
who were doing independent studies. They sent
a survey around asking if people would take the
class and so I signed up for it,” said senior Tatiana
Weems.
Even though not many students are a part of the
class this year, there are many reasons one may
consider taking it next year. For one, it is an AP
class that will show up on high school transcripts.
Another reason is it gives students a chance to
learn about the inner workings of the United
States’ government.
“I was interested in how our government works,
and I thought our government had some flaws. So
I wanted to see how it is supposed to be run com-
pared to how I saw it being run,” said Weems. Photo by Veronica Walker
This class, however, does not replace required Seniors Sydney Gellerson, Michelle Prior, Tatiana Weems, Brandon Reddeman, Jessyca Brubaker, Sean

Goddard grabbed the ball from Jackson and brought the ball down to Lake’s
side where she scored a basket in the first minute of the quarter.
When the second quarter kicked off, Molstre was on fire and her aggres-

of steals. A memorable moment in the second quarter was when Brooke
Pahukoa went in for a shot, and made it, but did not receive the basket
because she had taken down her defender, receiving a foul. A long pass at

Returning from halftime for the Vikings was Burke, Brooke Pahukoa,

point guard by playing smart and remembering to the slow the ball. Senior
