PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE

November 10 …Veteran’s Day—No School

Hello Summit Family,

November 23………... ….Thanksgiving Day

I am excited to commence another school year at Summit High School. We have made huge strides in a positive direction. Since 2014-15 , Summit’s graduation rates have increased by more than 26%. Significant increases in attendance and growth in the area of state testing have validated our efforts. Summit’s commitment to increasing efforts to include parents became a school priority. Via multiple awards ceremonies and an open door policy, Summit welcomed and encouraged parents to take part in our day to day activities. The result of these efforts resonated throughout the community and brought more families to Summit High School. As we move forward, we want to continue the high level of customer service and community engagement. With the support of our many families, we will continue to progress toward constructing a model school that appeals to a variety of learners.

The season is here where the weather starts to cool down and one of the most enjoyable holidays comes up, Halloween. Soon people will be dressing up as their favorite characters and going out to collect heaps of candy but if you're into the paranormal phenomenon there are places within the valley that are said to be haunted. Whether you believe in the paranormal or not, it's still a little unsettling not knowing what can be out there. We've all heard stories but whether they are true is up to you to decide.

Coachella Valley Public Cemetery Of course there's stories about the cemetery but people claim to see bright orbs hovering graves and shadows behind trees. People say if you go there with bad intentions something will warn you to leave. The cemetery closes at 8 but there's stories of people seeing man after hours reminding anyone there that they need to leave, then disappears. Others say it's just a feeling of being watched that scares them away.

La Quinta Resort & Club

The resort opened up 1926 and is one of the oldest landmarks here. Many believe to have seen and heard strange things through the resort. There's supposedly a man who runs up and down the halls of the resort for no reason or at least they thought, after seeing him run they say to see a small person come after him. The story is of a man who was a traveling ventriloquist and stopped at the resort for a show. The man wasn't very successful and later on passed without the fame he was searching for. He was thought to be crazy because he would talk to his dummy. Since there was no success in fame he haunts the halls with his dummy chasing after him. To me it sounds hilarious but the only way to really find out is to go and stay the night. * (images used are not necessarily of topic or location)

WHAT IS

$15

Edgenuity is a learning management system that utilizes lecture videos, interactive reviews, quizzes, and tests in a compacted format to receive credit for classes. What? Ok, let’s put it this way, it’s a program that is designed to give you a lot of information in a small amount of time. The point of it is that you can complete your required courses at a quicker pace to graduate. At Summit, the Edgenuity class lessons have been edited, re-ordered, or removed by your teacher’s direction to better fit their course design, meet the requirements of common core education goals, and credit recovery standards. In answering the call to implement more of a blended learning environment, The Edgenuity program is to be used in combination with classroom activities, lectures, supplemental work, DBQ’s, essays, and classroom discussions. There are a few things that you may have missed in the tutorial video the first time you signed into Edgenuity. 1.

Edgenuity uses a matrix to calculate your grade in the class. There are 2 grade categories you need to pay attention to. A. Overall Grade: grade on the work you have completed so far. B. Actual Grade: this takes your progress into account. (if you are ahead=better grade, if you are behind=lower grade)- This is the grade that will be reported on report card for most of the teachers.

2.

Edgenuity has a session log that teachers can view to see how long you have spent on all of your classes. It displays time and day, classes, how many activities completed, and how long you have been idle (not interacting with program).

ATTENDANCE MATTERS By Michelle Ostendorf Attendance Fascilitator

Stay In School. Don’t Be Late. Graduate. A missed school day is a lost opportunity for students to learn. The negative implication of absenteeism is related to higher dropout rates. In order to graduate, you need to come to school, which in turn gives you a high school diploma, better job opportunities, a chance at going to college or going into the military.

IT. By Julie Lua Another movie adapted from a book, this one by Stephan King, horror writer supreme, presents itself as a horror movie, but “IT” is different. This movie opening is crazy! I did not expect such a gory scene right off the bat, but then again it’s a “horror” movie. The movie overall was thrilling! I truly think the group the boys in this movie, made the movie. They were all hilarious! Great characters can truly make a movie. The movie constantly was developing and there was always something new to keep me at the edge of my seat. The story is about a group of “losers” who not only face a killer that presents itself as a clown in their small

town, but also all of the other things that are wrong with their town. IT is designed to be a 2 part movie, but not a sequel, a finish to what was started between these kids and IT. The kids are to return 27 years later to face it as adults. This would be the second movie adaptation of King’s novel, the first being a mini series in 1985. 10/10 - I would recommend this film. IT. Rated R. 2hr 15m. Drama, horror, thriller.

By Khristian Pina

On August 3rd, a great evil was once again re-awakened. Knowing no bounds, and reveling within their dark musics … Pentakill. After laying waste to what has remained from their world from their first uprising, these legends have returned to our world from the depths of their home hidden within Runeterra. They bring with them their most prized and destructive armaments to bear, heavy-metal, to bring about our ends again with humanity's own flaws. Riot Games created League of Legends to be a place of magical properties and wonder. The lands of Runeterra filled with many tales and mystical creature, artfully displayed and masterfully crafted to give it all a breath of life. Within this world however, comes an equally mysterious and sinister side to it all. Writhing inside the darker planes of Runeterra, came birth to one story that would change the fate of League forever, Pentakill. They carved their way into Runeterra with ‘Smite and Ignite’ whilst even setting their name at the top of our world with as much grace a non-physical heavy metal band can hope to bring. As the bell tolled for the second album's release, Riot games has happily announced the band's second coming to our mortal world with their newest album, “Grasp of the Undying”, and with the albums awakening call, came forth their newest member as well. The first teased song, Mortal Reminder, shook the world by storm taking 3m views within 48 hours of its initial release. Karthus, the lead singer was joined once again by lead guitarist Mordekaiser, the master of metal, headsman of bass, Yorick Mori, Maven of strings, Sona, and Drummer, Olaf the berserker. With these five legends of metal, another has joined their ranks, secondary lead singer, Kayle, the archangel of metal. With much anticipation and hope for the band Pentakill, Riot Games believe “Grasp of the Undying” would be a solid start and push the band to an even greater horizon. With that, the band has made major success within the music world, leaving most others behind as it blazed its way forward. Some often wondered how a fictional band could get so high with its only advertisements being its band members as skins for playable characters, and an announcement spreading the release of the first album. Many speculations about the second album are indeed interesting, however there is one question that still remains, will the album succeed as its destined predecessor to ‘Smite and Ignite’ and climb its way up the top 40 and reach No.1 on the metal chart once more?

“ She checked her rearview mirror to see if the girl was still there, just to see her sitting in the backseat.”

HAUNTING Calhoun Street There are so many stories about going down this street at night. I heard from friends and family members about “the girl in the fields”. My mom actually told me a story about her sister going down that road about 20 years ago. She said that her sister was out pretty late at night and was trying to get home. She lived in Coachella at the time so she knew that that road would be clear that late at night because of lack of street lights and houses. She started off on 42nd and took Calhoun heading into Coachella. Passing by fields of dirt she saw the girl. She wore a beat up white dress and was standing at the edge of the field. My aunt, terrified, kept driving. After passing the girl on the side of the road, she checked her review mirror to see if the girl was still there, just to see her sitting in the back seat. She ditched her car and ran to the nearest gas station to call my uncle to help her retrieve the

car. From what I heard about all the stories seem to end up the same way, with the girl in the car. No one really knows the story behind her, some say her boyfriend attempted to kill her then dropped her out in the middle of the fields to discard of the remains. Out of valley adventures If you want to talks a road trip you can go out to The Whaley House in the heart of San Diego. I've been there before and personally, it's a bit creepy. You can take pictures of all the rooms and see ghostly orbs. Some say they feel heavy pain in their chest standing in the doorway which happens to be the place where Mr. Whaley’s daughter shot herself in the chest. That's what I know and what I found out. No plans for Halloween night? Try and witness the creepy legends of the Coachella Valley.

Little Nightmares Little Nightmares is a game developed by Tarsier Studio based in Sweden. This horror/adventure puzzleplatformer has both good and negative aspects. It is very atmospheric, has great sound and music, and surprisingly a great story especially considering there isn’t much in terms of dialogue. While many other horror games focus more on where the monsters are, Little Nightmares focuses on the monsters finding out where you are, hiding. Of course, this game isn’t without it’s faults. The shoddy controls and inconsistent camera can easily make you fall off the edge dying, the checkpoints are poorly placed, and the game is fairly short with the campaign

being finished in around five hours on average. I feel there are many secrets pertaining to the story hidden in the background. For example, the dark entity that appears whenever Six, the main character, gets hungry. There is also the seemingly apparent theme of hunger, the progression of what Six eats. Another instance is a painting in the final chapter depicting a girl in a yellow dress holding hands with The Lady. The Lady is the main and final antagonist while the girl could be the main protagonist, Six. But, due to Six’s character design, Six is a gender ambiguous character and thus it isn’t clear if the girl in the painting is in fact Six.

Campus Safety There are many rules and guidelines to be followed at school and although we, as students, may not always agree with them, they are still put in place for our safety. Safety is the number one priority for the district and district personnel. Possession of weapons, drug paraphernalia, lighters, electronic vape pens or cigarettes, and any other items that can be dangerous are not allowed on campus. Also, fighting falls under the umbrella of campus safety as people, other than the combatants, can be hurt as collateral damage to the fight. This issue also carries the possibility of being sued as well. With every action there are consequences; consequences for having these types of items on campus include, confiscation, suspension, expulsion, and depending on the details of the situation you can even be arrested. In fact, Summit veterans may recall an incident last year where there was a student arrested for possession of weapons while on campus. So just a friendly reminder, please, for the safety of us all, just follow the guidelines and don’t bring the items on campus.

Leslie Van Houten

By Bella Harvath

The Charles Manson cult (also known as “The Manson Family”) was an infamous group of killers who gained notoriety from the murder of the famous actress Sharon Tate. After, the group then went on to many other murders before being caught and convicted in 1969. A specific member of this commune, Leslie Van Houten is now eligible for possible parole after 48 years locked up. Houten was involved in the brutal killings of five people, being only 19 at the time. She has attempted to be put on parole many times, only to be rejected, now showing remorse for her crimes. According to her attorney she has changed in her value system while being incarcerated. This sudden breakthrough in her case has caused a lot of controversy about whether or whether not she should be released after such a gruesome crime. Do you agree with those that say she’s a danger to society and should spend life in prison, or do you agree that she's learned from her actions and has become a better and more moral person? According to her attorney they will keep fighting until she gets released, and this marked the 21st time that Houten has

fought for possible parole over the course of her imprisonment.
