School District students of all ages, parents and community members are invited to learn about Rhinelander High School's academic programs, technology, scholarships and career advising opportunities at an open house on Wednesday from 4-6 p.m. The event will also feature tours, information on services, extracurricular activities and student life, and the opportunity to visit high school's classrooms.

"Our annual open house is an excellent opportunity for the community and parents to gather more information on specific academic offerings and to get a close-up look at the facilities in our high school that provide students with valuable hands-on learning experiences. It also creates the opportunity to meet new faculty and staff as teachers will be available in their rooms to speak to visitors and answer questions regarding their curriculum and programs," said Michael Werbowsky, Principal Rhinelander High School. "In addition, visitors can explore programs designed to create ties between the community and our students to better prepare them for a competitive and productive future."

Throughout the RHS campus, the community will also have the opportunity to tour facilities for computer science, business education, technical education, multimedia and library labs, language, music and writing labs as well as learn about study abroad programs and view department and student organization displays and videos. Information will also be provided about Youth Options, Project Lead the Way, Computer Science and Business Education articulation, Advanced Placement, and other programs that allow qualified students to earn college credit while still in high school.

“There are so many amazing things happening in our school the community just isn't aware of. We have programs where students design web pages and marketing materials for businesses and organizations, run an online school store, construct and sell houses, create public service videos, and design environmental improvement projects,” said Olivia Dachel of the Computer Science and Business Education department.“This is a great opportunity to check out our students' innovations and how they are positively impacting the community.”

Soros goes after America's judges (09.17.2006)
Billionaire George Soros, a naturalized American citizen born in Hungary, takes a lively interest in the politics of his adopted country. Soros, who made his first big killing in the field of international finance by betting against the British pound, spent $24 million of his own hard-earned money trying to defeat George W. Bush and elect John Kerry in the presidential election of 2004. He is now plowing millions more into supporting such leftist agitprop organizations as MoveOn.org, to influence the coming congressional elections. And, apparently equally discontented with the political direction of various European countries, he is reportedly putting even greater sums (apparently in the hundreds of millions of dollars) into ventures to influence the politics of those nations.
