Benson High School StepsThis plaque is laid in the top step of a set of stairs that leads from the back of Benson High School to their practice sport fields below the school. I enjoy finding these types of historical objects and thinking back to the time and people associated with their placement. I initially posted this to my Flickr page which was then posted to Twitter which lead to a little conversation between @irasocol, @nickdennis and @acelfresno regarding the fact that in 1972 Benson High School had a student parliament and a discussion about student government systems. Funny how one image can start a conversation. Map Link...

Graham's Lunch

in

Today at lunch we were presented with a challenge. A student had a
container of mac and cheese that he could not open. When he presented
the container to me and asked for my help, I anticipated problems.
This specific type of container for some reason, is very difficult to
open. (I did not note the name of the container, but I know it by
sight...) I have had to open this type in the past and they have
proved difficult. I tried, but could not open it. Christine and Steve,two of our
para-educators attempted to open it and could not. We even took a
hammer to it, and could not get it to open. Wanna be 5th grade strong
men attempted to open it and all were not successful. In the end we
gave the young man a school lunch and sent the container home...
