1) What did you do?
We explored the drama and instrumental departments at LaGuardia High School as well as interviewed CTE Head and AP of Theatre, Brad Vincent.

2) Why did you choose it?
We figured that’s it’s a place inside of the neighborhood that nobody has done yet. We also wanted to give a little tour of one of the country’s most prestigious high schools.

3) What did you learn?
We learn a little of what each department does to educate their children. We also about the severe lack of educational funding the school receives.

Lunch & Dessert on the West Side of Town

Group: Ivana Roman, Fausto Lopez, Olivia Torres, Sam Barnes, and Christian Mejia (All Hunter)

What did you do?
– We took a look around the area and decided to bring you to the best place for awesome pizza and delicious desserts. The bakery and pizzeria are on the corner of Columbus Ave and 69th St, definitely worth the trip!
Why did you choose it?
– Not only were some of our group members hungry, but thought it would be nice to show everyone a new place to eat since we generally don’t hang around the west side of Manhattan too much.
What did you learn?
– We learned that Magnolia has expensive but equally awesome cupcakes.

Tucker Square Greenmarket

By: Olivia Ferrari, Alex Lemell, Mason Taub and Danny Ovryn from Hunter College.

We visited the Tucker Square Greenmarket and interviewed vendors and costumers to get a better idea about the value of farmers’ markets. We chose to made a video to showcase our journey. During the course of our adventure, we learned about fat-free (breast fed?!) turkeys, improv ninjas and Bingo Pajamas.
