This photo is a picture of my friend working at school. This represents our right to an education. Our right to an education represents democracy and it's meaning. Published: November 17,2021

This student is one of many that love to wear there favorite sweatshirt to school. With cold mornings and chilly classrooms there is nothing like wearing your best sweater to keep you toasty while in class.

Our Democracy

This is a picture of me in Denver, Colorado on 1/22/21. This picture shows a feeling of being free and the background represents my future and all I have to still see and look forward to.

Some may ask how this picture signifies democracy. To me its very clear. democracy to me is the freedom to choose what to do with my life and time. If I want to game and eat chips that is what I will do, and because of democracy I can do that.

An interview with Jo, a fellow senior

In this post I interviewed a student from May River asking them questions about the community, themselves and other important questions that have something to do it.

"May River helped me realize I could pursue my dream career in art, my final I painted in my art 2 class got put in a art gallery. That made me feel like a real artist, and made me realize my five years of practicing was worth something."- DR

interviewing Coach

For the Humans of May River project I interviewed my classmate John B. He has been a student here for three years now and has shared with me his views on life as a student here. He has shared his likes and dislikes and how he sees the community.

With her daughter going to May River, a good school that can teach you proper education, she has realized she is giving her the life she's never had. She is proud of what “she created”, and what the community influences is helping raise her daughter.

In my post I talked about what I feel like democracy illustrates as in the picture I picked out on as an example.

interviewing Loren Tipton

Jess- I’m connected through the school and friends. I’ve been a part of the community since late summer.The community has many different people, it’s large and some people are rowdy, but many are nice. I’m proud of facing changes.

Interviewing a person at May River High School

This picture was taken in downtown San Luis Potosi Mexico in late July. Democracy to me is seeing how different we all really are and how we are all free to live completely different lives and go in very different life directions.

As some may stand for the pledge and others may just sit down. And few might even support, but still not get up, why? One’s opinions should not affect us, but how come we feel offended if one person doesn't share the same faith as we do.

Friendship is democracy because we all have different opinions but still come together.

The power of even one vote can sway the decision of all, half of the people will always be unsatisfied that is what terrifies me. Morality that respects democracy shatters then they the go against the fold with anger and rage.

my post is describing how my friend feels about the Mayriver community and what I feel demonstrates democracy.

My view on democracy.

Volunteering in your community has to do a lot with democracy. When you volunteer you vote a lot for your community and how you want to live your everyday life.

"I am a hard working student, pursing good grades and successful life style. I put forward effort and strive to reach my goals. I am a kind and caring individual, willing to help anyone in need. I support anyone and everyone". - Emily S.

These May River students are voting on who has to buy Starbucks for the group next. “All in favor of John raise your hand” Because of this vote, John has to buy Starbucks next. Although John is not in favor of himself, the majority wins the vote.

"I have been a part of the community since I was born, I've watched as it has rapidly grown throughout the years". With that "I would like to be remembered for supporting those in the community who feel they don't have a voice in our community."

“What is something you are proud of?” Her father was a hard-working man going from a proud man in service in the marine core. “My dad was in the military on deployment for years and I missed him so much but it was for the better. Julianys Rosado

Have it your way. This picture was taken in 8903 South Tryon St, Charlotte, NC 28273 in August 7, 2015. Democracy to me is how free we are, to go different paths and able to think differently, begin able to get a set limit only if we limit ourselves.
