Wouldn’t you like to learn about your culture and the background of other cultures? Don’t you think it would be interesting to gain more knowledge on where you and others derived from? Golden Pryor sure thinks so.
Golden Pryor, a Junior here at Vacaville High School, came up with the idea of the creation of a culturally informative class to give students more insight into their backgrounds and the histories of their ancestors. This thought was raised when his peers were misinformed on things about their past, which shocked Pryor.
“In today’s world I think it is really important for kids to be informed on the backgrounds of their peers,” Golden stated. “It is a shame when they don’t know where they came from.”
Pryor has big plans for this class. The intent is to use the same curriculum that some schools are already using in Davis. The elective class would be split into two or three levels, since the topics are very extensive and complicated.
The creation of this class is not yet set in stone, but the plans are under consideration. The students at Davis High School already have this class. They have had lots of success with the results. The implementation of this class will only be successful if the students in favor of it are dedicated. If you want this class at Vacaville High School, make your voice heard to strengthen the chances of the creation of it.
We are not positive if this class will be implemented at our school, but if it is, it will surely be interesting. The Bark will keep you posted about any new information about this class.
