Rhinelander Visits BCAL
Guest Blogger: Irene Gilbert, Service Learner
BCAL hosted a unique College Access experience. 40 hearing impaired teens visited
BCAL last Saturday had a wonderful time. We augmented the scavenger hunt and showed hip hop videos which incorporated American Sign Language (ASL). The students were able to explore the college campus with the guidance of college service learners and interpreters. The teens were full of energy and were such a joy to be with, hopefully this won’t be their last visit to BCAL.

The latest video from the one and only, M.S.M!!!
This video was a serious group effort. Emi and our young emcees, Kimani, Darius and Malik, worked diligently in the music lab to come up with the song. Miss Jill taught everyone how to make a storyboard and plan the video. And the amazing Arin worked with a revolving crew of young filmmakers to produce this beautiful video. Great work everyone! Stay Rappin.
Revolution! An exhibit about the American, French and Haitian Revolutions
We have a special club here at Walt Whitman called, “Haitian Crew.” It’s a space for our Haitian students to get together and talk about their shared heritage, their common challenges, and sometimes to just have fun, eat pizza and play soccer. We recently went on a trip to the NY Historical Society to see the exhibit, “Revolution! The Atlantic World Reborn.” The students had a great time and learned, hands-on, about their history.
