Cambios en la escuela nocturna El cambio de hora en que empiezan las clases de la escuela nocturna fue aprobada por la Junta de Educación. Anteriormente las clases empezaban a las 5:55 p.m. hasta las 9:35 p.m. Ahora inician a las 4:30 y terminan a las 8:00 p.m. Esta decisión tomó efecto este semestre y refuerza la iniciative implementada este año para aumentar el rigor académico y de esa manera contratar maestros certificados para enseñar en la escuela nocturna en Blair. Esta iniciativa añade más contenido a los currículos. Además de mejorar el currículo, ahora hay más atención en otras áreas como la pérdida de crédito y en el aumento de seguridad en la escuela.

La Créperie is the place to be

By Anuja Shah | Feb. 8, 2005, midnight | In Print »

Located in the bustling row outside the Pentagon City mall, La Créperie is an unexpectedly charming bistro with lots of flair for its fairly cheap eats. As the name implies, La Créperie serves mostly crépes (although they offer sandwiches and croissants for the unadventurous of stomach and weak of wallet). Entrees range from $6 to $8, and offer tempting vegetarian and non-vegetarian options; the crépes sucrées (sweet crépes), between $5 and $6 each, are inviting by themselves or as a dessert.
