Rachel’s Raving – An Overload of Technology
Rachel Middleton, Editor-in-chief
November 5, 2010
Have you ever thought about how dependent we are on technology? Seriously, take tomorrow to consider it. Count how many times you send a text, or pull out your iTouch to play a game, or get on Facebook, or check your e-mail, or read the Spartan Spear-it online newspaper (gacspartanspearit.com).

Rachel’s Ravings (Part 2) – Concerts
Rachel Middleton, editor-in-chief
September 27, 2010
Concerts. They’re crowded, noisy, full of obnoxious people, smelly and exhausting. The pounding, thumping music is played at such a volume that it can be painful.

Rachel’s Ravings – This Is It
Rachel Middleton
August 26, 2010
They were intimidating. They were so tall I had to stand on my tiptoes to see over them, dodge and turn sideways so I wouldn’t be squashed. They were prettier, laughed more, talked more.

November 23, 2009
A third grade teacher creates a new science program for two of his kids who are interested. Four years and many calculations later, students ages nine to fourteen get to work hands-on and learn math, engineering, and computer programming in…Robotics. In the past four years, Robotics has grown rapidly... Read more »
Chelsea’s Blog: It All Happened So Fast
Chelsea Mitchell, Senior
October 27, 2009
Almost November already? Where has the time gone? As much as I’m enjoying myself here, it doesn’t seem like I’ve been here long enough for teachers to start talking about term papers and semester averages. I feel as if it were “just yesterday” when I was trying on my GACS uniform for the first... Read more »
