Have you ever heard of a versatile individual; someone who is multitalented and the best at what he does? Well, Mr. Eterno is that guy. He is one of the best teachers that we have in Jamaica High School.
Mr. Eterno has been teaching in Jamaica High School for 21 years. He has no intentions of retiring because he loves what he does, and considers the school to be his
second home.
Mr. Eterno teaches World History and Economics. When he was young, his subjects of interest were always Social Studies. He also was a very big fan of the Mets and Rock bands and also wanted to play for either of them, but he wasn’t good at any of them so he decided to pursue his career in teaching high school students about the world that they live in.
Mr. Eterno is one of the best teachers because of his strong devotion to his students. He cares about the future of his students. He truly loves the enthusiasm his students have towards their education. The students are always willing to learn new things. “Working with teenagers lets me be a part of their growing experience, and it’s the best,” said Mr.Eterno.
The feeling of educating his students motivates him to be the best teacher that he can be. His goal is to make sure every student excels in the class and moves on to higher fields. He makes each lesson as easy and as clear as possible so that the students can understand and excel in all the tests. “The information that is gathered now could also be helpful to them in their future,” said Mr. Eterno. Mr. Eterno’s words of encouragement to his students are always,” be the best that you can be to succeed,"and “without a college degree, the odds of being successful are very slim.”
Despite the great things he does for his students, he also dedicates his time to improving the school. He is one of the teachers who opposes shutting down the school and putting another school in it. He is the Teacher’s Union leader and he has used that platform to strongly get the students the resources they need to succeed.
Every month, Mr. Eterno meets with the other teachers to discuss with them about all the main issues in the school. He writes the Board of Education Chapter News for the school once a week. However, depending on how big the issue is, he sometimes writes it more often.
Mr. Eterno is in charge of organizing the trips to the Board of Education to tell the Chancellor that Jamaica High School is a good school and our students deserve the best.
He devotes his time into the school because he wants to see it grow enormously. He also loves to see young students successful in seeking their education. This is what he works for, and this is why he tries to be the best teacher that he can be: for the success of his students and the growth of his second home.

A destructive world
We are now living in a society where the people don't feel safe while walking down busy streets of New york City and even in their schools and homes. Before walking outside or going to school, people have to pray to the heavenly father so that he keep them safe because he is the only one with such power to do so.
In this society, we are treated as if we are animals. The people are hunted down by police officers every where they go, the same police officers who are shooting 50 bullets in their hearts and still get away with it.
However, I have to say that there are some people in life who deserves to be treated like animals because that's what they are, but certainly not Sean Bell. He was one of the innocent man's out there, who was about to get married to the woman of his dreams, but this destiny was taken away from him when the police officers shot him 50 times.
The police officers who committed this crime went on a trial and was found not guilty. This verdict caused every one to be upset and angry. The people were upset as farm animals so on Friday, 25, they went on a rally to demonstrate to the police how upset they were.
This verdict aroused a lot of questions in the thoughts of people. Wasn't putting 50 bullets in some one's soul enough crime to be found guilty for? Where and when does it all stop?What severe crime does a police has to commit to be found guilty? Wasn't this crime severe enough?
It seems like the police officers will get away with every crime that they commit. There's never a wrong in their eyes, and this is a shame. It's ironic how they are to protect the people and keep them safe, but they're the ones causing harm to the people. Police officers causes the hearts of the people to rage with anger and fire; this is how much hate and animosity the people have towards the cops.
The people are supposed to feel safe near the police officers, but instead feel scared. They feel that instead of the police doing their jobs and protecting us, they are either killing us one by one, or getting us behind bars one by one. The people in society fears that the police are taking the laws in their hands, especially Jamaica High school students.
When does this stop? Where do we draw the boundary???
