Offering real life experiences is a goal of ours at J.R. Gerritts Middle School. We encourage our students to become life long learners and develop skills to help them take charge of their own learning and to create their own learning opportunities.
The Computer Applications Department at J.R. Gerritts Middle School is designed to prepare our students for the 21st Century. Students are engaging in technical applications more and more and we strive to make sure our students are ready.
We not only teach the technical abilities, but also the less concrete aspects. We teach our students how to critically think through a task, work in teams collaboratively and how to reach out to the global community using the technology readily available to us.

snopes.com: Top Scams

Should we ban DHMO?
Do baby carrots cause cancer?
Does putting on deodorant after shaving cause cancer?
Does changing my FB profile picture to a cartoon character actually help prevent child abuse?

All of these are urban legends passed on through e-mail and/or facebook. How do you know if they are true or not? One way is to check it out on Snopes.com. Snopes has helped put many "fears" to rest! :)
Remember... don't believe everything you read on the Internet? Check it out for yourself? Fact or Fiction? Reliable or Not?
