Upper School Rebel Writers

Susie’s Rebel Writers class (English 11) has been busy working on their Rebel Projects, a six-week long project in which students become rebels themselves by identifying and tackling an issue in which they want to effect change. Throughout their project, students document their thoughts online using a wiki or a blog so that peers can follow their work and offer comments. You can see the end result of a Rebel Project upstairs near the library. Two students created a “Humans of BB&N” bulletin board. Their goal in becoming a “rebel” was to find a way for BB&N people to have an opportunity to better know one another.
