Have  you  ever  wondered  why  in  the
         world  our  teachers  decided  to  teach
         here? Well, we put the question to them   Al  Scrase - Reading  Lab,  English,
                                                 Social  Studies
         and asked them what they found. Here's
         what they said  ...                      I was merely LOOKING  FOR a teach-
                                                  ing position when I was hired to teach at
                                                  Bowman.  With  additional  education
                                                  and  four  years. of teaching  reading,  I
                                                  feel  this has been one of the highlights
                                                  of my  life. In  reflection,  I was  LOOK-

                                             When  I  came  to  Bowman  High
                                            School  I  was  LOOKING  FOR  a
                                             school  with  an  alternative learning
                                             environment. I wanted to work in a
                                            school where students are treated as
                                             individuals- not  numbers.  I  think
                                            that because of the personal atten-
                                            tion that's available, students are fi-
                                            nally able to succeed  in  school.

                                                                              where  I  could  relate  to  the  whole  stu-
                                                                              dent, where I could have a conversation
                                                                              with  a  student  that  revolved  around
                                                                              their  lives  as  well  as  their  ideas.  Bow-
