Through the Eyes of a Foreign Exchange Student<\/span><\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]Have you ever wondered what it would be like to leave your home country and attend school in a different country? Would it be hard to communicate with others? Are the school systems different and if so does it heavily impact your learning skills? We are here to try to answer some of these questions. We have interviewed three foreign exchange students that attend West Vigo High School that were willing to help answer some common questions you may have about being a foreign exchange student.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0We started by interviewing the three foreign exchange students, Laila Rudolph, Margherita Piaggesi, and Arthur Barbeiri. We asked them some simple questions. Laila is from Germany and is a junior but would have graduated already in Germany. Margherita is from Italy and is also a junior but would have been a senior at Language High School in Italy. Margherita stated that in Italy they went from school Monday to Saturday whereas in the U.S. we go Monday to Friday. Arthur is from Brazil and is a senior, he attended Coopeq Objetivo while being a junior. Some of the favorite subjects for them are psychology, art, and manufacturing because back home they didn\u2019t have access to these subjects. They all agreed that algebra is the worst subject. Laila stated algebra was a hard subject for her because the calculating back in Germany is very different from how it is in the U.S. Talking to family back home seems hard because of the time difference for the two with family in different time zones and while at school they don\u2019t get to talk to family as much while being at school at the times they can call back home.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After we got to know them a bit, we decided to ask them some questions aimed more towards being here in West Terre Haute. We first asked what has been the hardest obstacle for them since their stay here in West Terre Haute. All three stated that the hardest obstacle for them was being able to communicate with other town residents. Margherita elaborated it more for us stating that it\u2019s hard because people in the U.S. tend to talk faster and use slang words. We also asked them about what is different about West Terre Haute and their hometowns. Laila talked about how the people here are more friendly than back in Germany. Margherita also mentioned how she loves nature here especially at the local parks we have. She told us that she likes the parks here because you can actually interact and do things there because back home in Italy parks are often places to go get drunk or do drugs. We were both genuinely curious if being in a different time zone would affect them, so we decided to ask them. Arthur said that it didn\u2019t really affect him since the time zone didn\u2019t change for him. Margerherita and Laila did indicate that it was a little hard getting used to the change since they come from the Eastern Hemisphere.\u00a0 Our last question we had for them was if the teaching system here was different compared to the teaching system in their home country. All three agreed that there was a major difference in the teaching system. All three stated that having a consistent schedule is new to them whereas back home they only focused on one subject per a day. So instead of having your normal broad schedule, you would focus on Algebra one day and possibly English the next day. Both Margerherita and Laila would be seniors, but due to the difference in the American teaching system, they were registered as juniors in the school system.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is truly interesting to hear and learn about different perspectives from these foreign exchange students. We hope we were able to answer some of your questions you may have had. Thank you to all three of the foreign exchange students that helped us out with answering our questions and welcome to West Vigo High School!<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_gallery type=”flexslider_style” images=”9356,9355,9421″ onclick=”link_no”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][heading subtitle=”By Red Bell”]\n

FCCLA<\/span><\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]Are you interested in F.C.C.L.A but need more information on it? Well, this article is to help with that. F.C.C.L.A stands for Family Career and Community Leaders of America. <\/span>FCCLA members will strengthen skills and make a positive difference in today’s world through participation in Competitive Events. Students will participate in competitions, attending conferences across the nation, networking with youth leaders, and attaining essential college- and career-ready skills.<\/span>\u00a0 Mrs. Herrin started a F.C.C.L.A club back in 2002, first starting at South Putnam, and now has moved it here to West Vigo. F.C.C.L.A deals with helping families in and around the community. F.C.C.L.A is known for its bake sales, baskets of cheer, socktober, and many other events. Family is the emphasis for F.C.C.L.A, and always has something going on at least once a month until March, which is conference month where they compete against other F.C.C.L.A clubs. Students who take part in F.C.C.L.A state that the club is very fun, supportive, and has a great atmosphere. F.C.C.L.A only costs $15 to be a member, it used to be $21. You can pay $11 to be part of it, the extra $4 is for a t-shirt. Mrs. Herrin\u2019s F.C.C.L.A currently holds about 30 members, but her goal is 50. How cool would it be if we reached past that, and got 100 members? Mrs. Herrin stated she once had 100 members in F.C.C.L.A before COVID, so that is the max goal. If you have any questions regarding F.C.C.L.A, Mrs. Herrin can be found in room 111 during school hours.<\/span>

Library Clubs<\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]Mr. Young wants to start a book club and a storytellers club, these are going to be two different clubs being hosted in the Library Mr. Young has been a librarian for 14 years and this is his first time starting clubs like this. He\u2019s also new to West Vigo High School. The book club will be on Wednesdays during lunch in the library for high schoolers who want to share a book they enjoy reading, talk about it, spark interest to other students to read the book, or books by the same author. This may also turn into a story-time type of deal. The actual storytellers club will be during SRT on Thursdays. For the storytellers club, picture books will be read.\u00a0 Mr. Young wants to voice these characters (which he\u2019s REALLY good at) and give life to these characters to draw more people in and engage them. He wants students to make their own voices and give life to characters themselves, so It won\u2019t be just Mr. Young. It\u2019s a bit of a learning experience as well. Students can voice these characters based on their environment. Later on in this club, Mr. Young wants to try going down to the Vikes N Tikes and read to them, as well as possibly going to other schools and reading to young children at some point. Mr. Young, I quote, says \u201cThe more you perform for students with characters from a book, the more kids will get more engaged, more interested.\u201d Mr. Young wants at least 20 people for the book club, and 8 to 12 for storytellers. However, if he gets more and more students, he can hold up to about 50 students for each club. If there\u2019s any questions you may have about either of these clubs, you can always find Mr. Young in the library during school hours.<\/span>

Boys and Girls Cross Country<\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]On Saturday, August 13th, the boys and girls cross country team competed in their first official meet at the Lavern Gibson Valley Kickoff Race. The boy\u2019s cross country team consists of junior Bryland Pape, sophomores Liam Campbell and Kyler Sullivan, and freshmen Cameron Nunez and Kyson Daugherty.\u00a0 The girl’s team consists of senior Sara Callecod, juniors Cassie Roush and Gwen Garman, and freshmen Madelynn Wrin, Audree Bauer, and Laikyn Luttrell.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When Coach Denise Herring was asked if she felt the team was prepared, she replied, \u201cThey are prepared. They have had tough workouts. They\u2019ve been running at least five miles each practice. They are ready.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The girl’s team was the first to run, and leading the girls was Cassie Roush, with a time of 25:49. Next was Madelynn Wrin with a time of 26:41, and Audree Bauer was close behind her with a 26:51. Gwen Garman finished the roundup with a 28:47. Next was the boy’s race. Liam Campbell ran an 18:51 with Bryland Pape not far behind with a 19:02. Kyson Daugherty ran a 23:41, and Kyler Sullivan ran a 23:03.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On Thursday, August 18th, the boy\u2019s and girl\u2019s cross country team had their first home meet against Sullivan High School. Cassie Roush came in third with a time of 24:14. Audree Bauer came in sixth place, and Gwen Garman came in eighth. The boy\u2019s team had four members place in the top five. Liam Campbell won the boy\u2019s race with a time of 19:13. Bryland Pape came in second, running a 19:29. Kyler Sullivan came in fourth place, and Kyson Daughtery came in fifth. Both teams ran very well but unfortunately lost against Sullivan because they didn\u2019t have enough members to qualify as a team.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”flexslider_style” images=”9352,9353″ onclick=”link_no”][heading subtitle=”By Garrett Hawthorne”]\n

Boys Tennis<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]With school starting again that means it is time for fall sports. These sports include football, cross country, soccer, volleyball, and tennis. Tennis practice began about two weeks before school started. I was one of the people practicing. We played a lot of matches to help us practice and to figure out what our spot would be on the team. After about two weeks of practice it was time for our first match, this would be the first match out of three we had this week. The first match was August 15 at home. The second was August 16 at home, and the third, August 17 away at Owen Valley. As I write this on August 22nd, the current standings for the Varsity are 1 singles, Bryce Easton, 1-4. 2 singles, Garrett Hawthorne, 3-2. 3 singles Jayce Noblitt, 1-4. 1 doubles, Brandon Dailey and Jack Readinger, 1-4. 2 doubles, Christian Foltz and Gavin McCoy 4-1.<\/span><\/p>\n

The West Vigo Invitational was on August 20th. It was a good group. Covington, South Vermilion, Terre Haute South\u2019s Junior Varsity, and of course West Vigo. It was good competition; the final score was Covington 1st, West Vigo 2nd, Terre Haute South 3rd, and South Vermillion 4th.<\/span> Every team fought long and hard, but Covington held on for the win.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The most recent match was August 23. We played South Putnam. They only had four players so we played 1 singles, 2 singles, and 1 doubles. We won the match by a total of 5-0.

A Soccer Player\u2019s Words<\/b><\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]Hello West Vigo Vikings! On Friday August 19, 2022 I interviewed Alex McKinney, who is a junior on the boys varsity soccer team. Alex is a second year player, but a first year starter. Alex\u2019s number on the team is number 14. When I talked to Alex, I asked him how it feels to be a starter. His response was \u201cIt feels good.\u201d With Alex being a junior and only having this year and next year to play, I wanted to know how he felt about not having many more years left. Alex answered with \u201cIt’s sad and scary to be a junior.\u201d The final question I asked Alex was how well he thinks the boy\u2019s soccer team is doing. Alex thinks \u201cthere is work to be done, but says they will get it done.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][image_with_animation image_url=”9372″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_link=”#story3″][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][vc_text_separator title=”Around Town” el_id=”story3″][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][heading subtitle=”By Emma Barbour- Morley and Mallorey Fischer”]\n

Why is Labor Day Important?<\/h1>\n[\/heading][vc_column_text]Labor Day is a national holiday. Have you ever thought about why we get the day off of school? Labor Day pays tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers and is traditonally observed on the first Monday in September. It was created by the labor movement in the late 19th century and became a federal holiday in 1894. Labor Day is just around the corner. And while this holiday allows Americans to enjoy a long weekend in September, it is important to know why we even celebrate it in the first place. To better appreciate the meaning behind it, you must understand the history of Labor Day. It began in the late 1800s during the Industrial Revolution in the United States. During this time, work hours averaged 12 hours a day, with most Americans working 7 days a week. Children as young as five years old would put in their hours in factories, mills, and mines, even though some states had restrictions in place again child labor. And these young workers would get paid a fraction of the salaries given to adults. As if low wages were not enough, the working conditions at times were often dangerous, too. The work environments did not allow workers fresh air or clean spaces. Breaks were either limited or not allowed. These conditions affected the poverty- stricken and the immigrants more. Today, a worker’s daily average is eight hours per day. As we celebrate Labor Day,\u00a0 we should not just look at this day as a day off from school, but a day to thank those who work so hard.<\/span><\/p>\n
