Welcome!

I'm Mrs. Warsinske (War * Sin * Ski) and I'm teaching all the 9th graders at Saint Louis School in Honolulu, Hawaii. This year, I decided to attempt something a little different with the Honors class (which is most likely you, Reader) and begin putting all of our good stuff online. The point of putting work online is to show what our best and brightest are capable of accomplishing. By posting starting from the very beginning of the year, it's my hope that the bloggers can begin to see how much they've progressed. 

Not only is our aim to show progress, but to captivate audiences around the world. I encourage connectivity. Meet new people! Relate to someone far, far, far away based on one obscure common trait. The world is way smaller than we originally thought and so now it's time for us to start scaling it.

I will be posting alongside the students about weekly shenanigans in Saint Louis School, the last remaining prestigious school for boys on the island of Oahu. Every week presents its own unique challenges and I'll be here to share  all my fantastic coping mechanisms.
