So the one and only Jeremy Spry posts about why he likes blogging. He writes as part of his entry:

Not only does my blog allow me to vent about the stuff going on in my life but it also makes me laugh out loud. Only at Beacon would my English teacher, My advisor, and my friends post on a blog. I mean an online journal is something very personal (and geeky) and at Beacon to have the this sort of openness that can go from joking to serious and back again while not fearing anything from inside or outside Beacon.

And it just reenforces my beliefs about how blogs and forums and such can really build the bricks-and-mortar communities that schools have. I still love that alumni write on our forums… and keep blogs… and visit…

Anyway… just thought it’d be cool to post some testimony from one of the kids.
