Location: San Diego Learning Center, 6112 Lorca Drive, San Diego 92115
Guest Presenter for December 1: Angelica Fazio
Topic: Linguistic and Intellectual Development in Children
The primary discussion will be inspired by Andrew Pudewa’s LINGUISTIC DEVELOPMENT THROUGH POETRY MEMORIZATION, which is directed at creating excellent writers through the development and deposit of a powerful storehouse of sophisticated linguistic patterns of vocabulary and grammar—the building block for a lifetime of effective writing and speaking. The goal is to grow the brain as neural networks expand to permanently store memorized patterns.

Murrieta Hawks Win Flag Football Championship!
November 18, 2008
The 2ND Annual JCS Bowl saw the Murrieta Hawks (5-2) play nearly flawless football as they defeated the Alpine Coyotes (4-2-1) by the score of 20 to 0 on a warm Friday afternoon in Rancho Bernardo. The Hawks scored on their first possession on a perfectly executed long throw and catch that covered 50 yards. The Hawks went up 13 to 0 in the first half with another 50 yard strike, with most of the yards coming on some great open field running. The Hawks put the game away in the second half with another 50 yard pass play, again on a short throw and long run. The Hawks defense was equally spectacular as they held the Coyotes in check for the entire contest.
Congratulations and thanks to all the JCS teams participating in the flag football league this season.
