WELCOME TO THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT - MRS. DELASSUS





Hello and welcome to the English department!  Nicole DeLassus is one of the three English teachers this year and is excited to be in her fourth year here at Catholic Central.  She has a Masters in Secondary Education and a Masters in English from DePaul University.  She also earned an interdisciplinary BA degree from Columbia College in Fiction Writing and Film/Video with a focus on story adaptation.  She enjoys spending time with her husband, family and many pets, reading, writing, painting, kayaking, and knitting projects she doesn’t finish.  Her current project is a blanket for Baby Violet who she is expecting any day now.   
This year, Mrs. Delassus teaches English I (freshmen requirement), American Literature and Composition (junior non-AP requirement), Speech (elective), and Story in Fiction and Film (a second semester elective where the students study how films create narratives and even create their own films).  
In English I, the students are reading The Pearl and analyzing for theme while about to start learning about argument writing.  Then they will move on to a Man Vs. Nature unit with poetry and the epic poem The Odyssey.  In American LIt and Composition, the students are reading about the Salem Witch Trials in The Crucible and will eventually move on to American Romanticism, American Revolutionaries and then Catcher in the Rye.  Her speech class is in the middle of delivering demonstration speeches and are beginning a radio broadcast essay to practice speaking rate, voice inflection, enunciation, etc. Then they will move on to a drama skit.

Inspirational Message From Mike McCoy During Homecoming Activities!

Mike McCoy played in the NFL for eleven years, seven of those
with the Green Bay Packers.  Mike was brought up in a religious family
and while playing with the Packers, a teammate helped him see the
difference between religion and a personal relationship with Jesus.  He
invited Christ into his life and He has changed him for the better.  You can learn more about
Mike at www.mccoy77.com.
Mike McCoy is giving Hertel some football tips.

Business & Technology - Mr. DeLorme

Business & Technology

Welcome to the wonderful world of Business and Technology, where Mr. DeLorme is the teacher and he shows you all the new latest technology, while helping to make you more Business savvy.  Do you have an interest in the world of business and/or technology?  Then this is the place for you!  Mr. DeLorme offers a number of different courses, which include: Web Design I & II, Personal Finance, Computer Applications, Focus on Multimedia(team taught with Mrs. Sheldon in the art department), Focus on Careers, Business Management, Marketing and much more.  He also teaches a general technology course to the 6th, 7th & 8th grade students from St. Mary School.








If you were to find yourself in one of these classes you might find yourself learning about the following:
  • Web Design I - How to create, build and update your own website.  We use the latest program from Adobe, including: Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, InDesign and much more.
  • Web Design II - How to update and manage a real world website, as you work on Catholic Central’s website - www.cchsnet.org
  • Personal Finance - Everything you need to know for the future, including: Banking, Credit Cards, Managing your finances, Buyin a Car, Buying/Renting a home or apartment and much more.
  • Business Management - Creating and managing your own business.  Find out what it takes to be an entrepreneur.
  • Marketing - How to get people excited about purchasing your product.  What it takes to drive up business and make people aware of the products you have to offer.
  • Focus on Multimedia - Ever wanted to do a project for a class and you don’t know where to start?  Well then this is the place for you.  Mrs. Sheldon and Mr. DeLorme show you a number of neat programs to help you complete and spiff up your projects.  Teachers will be amazed at what you can do!
  • Computer Applications - Probably one of the most important classes to take as an elective with the way our future is going with technology.  In this class you will learn all there is to know about Microsoft Office(Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher) and Google Apps (Drive, Gmail, Calendars, Contacts).  Having knowledge of these programs is a great Resume booster and something that will help you be more efficient in the future.

As you look at the classes offered, one thing that you will notice is how each class can connect to real world examples.  This is exactly what Business & Technology is.  Whether you are buying a car, like you will do in Personal Finance, walking into a grocery store to buy a product as you would do in Marketing, or learning about the new features of Gmail, something that most people use every single day.  The real world examples are all around.  You’re living in it, you might as well learn more about it!

Reminder Mandatory Fall Sports Meeting

Mandatory fall sports meeting dates have been set. Since football season is starting a couple of weeks before school and the rest of the fall sports, I decided to have two meetings this year.  Hopefully, those not in football will have a little more time to enjoy their summer. 

Coaches will have a short individual team meeting to go over expectations of students in their programs after the general session. If your coach has set up another arrangement for their team expectation meeting, you must still attend the general sports meeting for your child to participate in fall athletics at Catholic Central. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me.

Dates and times are as follows:

TONIGHT:  August  4th @ 6:00pm - Football, Swim & Tennis

Thank you!

From Mackenzie:

 I hope you all are having a wonderful summer! I would just like to invite you to a show I'm in this summer. It's called Narnia the Musical and is based off of the book The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. As we are counting down the weeks to opening night, we have been trying to advertise and sell tickets. Attached is a picture of the poster with the show dates, times, and ticket info.

If you are interested in coming to the show, you can let me know how many and what show you'd like tickets for.

Or, you can order your tickets on brownpapertickets.com

Hope you can make it! We've been working hard with swords and wardrobes and would love it if you came! Thank you!
