Finals are coming up and we are here to give you ten tips for maximum success! The most important thing to do for finals is get enough sleep; this is crucial for finals week. It is better to do all of your studying during the day and sleep at night so that your brain can absorb the material that you’ve studied. The second thing is to not panic! Check and see how much the final is actually worth; if the final is 20% or less it should only bring your grade up or down just by a letter grade (eg. B to B+). Another tip is to not make too little of it either. Do the absolute best that you possibly ..read more

Changes?

There will be lots of new changes that will occur for next year, but we are very excited for the new opportunities they will bring. Change is something that everyone has to go through in life and we all need to learn to deal with. As students, there are a few ways we can cope with change. Finding the silver lining in any given situation is one of the most suggested coping mechanisms. Looking on the bright side of things can lighten the all-around mood. Another way to cope with stress is to accept the past but fight for the future. In doing this you can better your situation and keep moving on ..read more

SA Fall Picnic

Fall picnic is always one of the most exciting parts of the year.  But this year one specific part stuck out to me.  One of the activities that we were doing this year was apple bobbing.  Easy, right?  Not quite.  All the teams were lined up, ready to go, excited to start the event.  Our team was slightly off to the side, shuffling nervously, trying to convince each other of who would go first.  “‘You go first, your faster!’, ‘No no no, you’re lighter than I am!'”, were a few of the things called out.  All of a sudden we heard Mr. Davis yell, “Ready! &nb ..read more

A Principal’s Self-Interview

Hi.  My name is Anthony Oucharek, and from the start, I must tell you that people intrigue me.  All people of all ages have stories that shape who they are – what they value and what they believe in.  When I finally get a chance to meet you – students, parents, and colleagues – I’m going to ask some of these questions: Tell me a little of your story. What brings you to DAA? How is DAA different from other schools you’ve attended? What’s important to you? I think it’s only fair that you should know some of those things about me, too.  Here, then, is my self-interview.  ..read more

College Observations: Tips on How to Get Through Your First Semester of College Here is my list of tips for you! Personally I found college to be a lot like DAA. DAA sets you up class wise for your first semester.  You have either already learned the content or you had been given a summary of the content, but don’t let yourself slack off because of it.  Your grades now mean 2x more than they did in high school.  STAY ON TOP OF YOUR GRADES OR YOU’LL FALL BEHIND. You don’t want to fall behind in any class.  You’re just asking for all-nighters, which are never fun, and way to ..read more

The Real AC/DC

Energy is something most of us take for granted – we style our hair, surf the internet, heat and cool our houses, and power up our tools. With energy, the sky’s the limit and we didn’t understand the power of that statement until just recently, at the Energy Conference. Our first order of business was to learn the basics of energy: what it is, where it comes from, and how closely it is tied to the environment. It is incredible to know that energy is a natural thing that needs to be harnessed in order for us to have electricity. As a crash course, AC/DC isn’t just a band. It actually refers to ..read more

Bucket List: Go on a Cruise!

1. Explore the ship. We got to, on the first day, spend the whole day at sea. We got to explore the ship and see all of its awesome amenities. Make sure you explore the ship right away so you know where everything is. Even after being on the ship for five days I was still finding new things.  Some of my favorite places on the ship were the pool/hot tub, the balcony at night, the elevators (when no one is on them — we played tag), the fancy restaurant (Sunset Restaurant), and the comedy stage. 2. Food! Next is all the food you get to eat. Make sure to eat as much food as you can (see point ..read more

  Winter Wonderland Banquet 2015 I love this school’s student association, all the students are cool and fun. SA is one of the coolest because they host parties like fall party, Christmas party, etc. Once you come to DAA, the students become your family and you will stay connected for eternity. The students can vary from different countries coming from Africa to China and more. You are able to learn about all the different cultures from them. This year the freshman have 12 students, 10 girls and two boys, I’m one of them. Fall fest is one of my favorite associations in the school, all the ..read more

What is Acrolights?

The Acrolights program is AMAZING. Being only a freshman and has never done acro or gymnastics before, I think I am improving a lot. The coaches and students are very encouraging. They help in any way they can so we can get better. In acro, we have done a series of tumbling routines and started on many group routines. We have done two highs, elevators, helicopter and a two high into a handstand like an elevator. I cannot wait to see what else we are going to do in the rest of the year. –Savannah, class of 2020 We have a program here called Acrolights. It is our gymnastics program. It is not li ..read more
