From Our Point of View 1

Miami Lakes Educational Center is a new approach to public high school education. Launched by insightful educators and ambitions industry leaders, MLEC is designed to immerse students in a rigorous learning environment that engages their interest in various fields such as graphic

design, international business and marketing, pre-nursing, automotive service technology, and computer network administration.

welcome to ... As a tuition-free public

high school with an international profile, Miami Lakes Educational Center will continue to pursue the integration of intellectual and technical endeavors.

August 2000, MLEC High School Division opened its doors to approximately 350 9th and lOth graders. And so began a new chapter of education, with the convergence of an adult vocational center and a secondary academic institution. With its first fruits of labor, a new highly marketable wave of high school graduates is scheduled to be ripe for the picking by employee-hungry industries by mid 2003. Those 9th and lOth graders are to be the precedence for, not only the MLEC students who follow them, but also for all the institutions that are built upon the revolutionary groundwork that MLEC has set.

MLEC involves the parents and guardians as much as the students, by ensuring that the parents and guardians are aware of their children's academic progress and attendance at all times. We ensure that the learningconducive environment begins far before 7:30 and continues far after 2:30.

With the beginning of a new academic year approaching, the 2001-2002 New Student Orientation is the preamble to this parent/ school collaboration. Parents with their students in tow poured into the dining hall eager to be involved in their children's eminent success.

With a passionate faculty led by a competent and dedicated administrative body, MLEC has set the standard for schools of its sort.

All are welcome!

"Open House" or "Back to School" night is an evening when parents are able to

visit the classrooms their children spend so much of their time in. Parents and teachers can meet face to face and

develop an alliance for success. Teachers are able to introduce parents to the curriculum and show them just what

the students have done in class. Sometimes the students join their

parents on their quest for information; some leave happy, others do not.

SHORTS DAY 2001

September 11, 2001 will be remembered as one of the most horrific days our country has ever experienced! Upon hearing of the first attack on the World Trade Center, parents and students paused for a moment of silence. This event affected everyone in various ways, however, the Miami Lakes Educational Center family did not stand idly by. We gave blood, made monetary donations, and participated in a bear drive.

Point of View 89 From Our

AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY

PROGRAM

' 94 Miami Lakes Educational Center

Coming of Age The celebration of a young girl's transition to womanhood, occurs as a rite of passage in many cultures. For those of Hispanic descent, this tradition is called Quinces (after the Spanish word denoting the number 15). Quinces are similar to sweet-sixteens and the coming out of a debutante, but are more ceremonial. All of these celebrations incorporate instances of symbolism. For example, the young woman usually wears a white gown and long white gloves that are reminiscent of wedding attire; or a long gown in a pastel color (this symbolizes innocence), and a tiara. At the beginning of some Quinces celebrations, the young lady's shoes are flat and then changed by the father during the procession to symbolize his acceptance and support of the fact that his daughter is entering womanhood. Preparations for these celebrations often begin as early as a year before. During this time, the young lady and her family must make many decisions. Most importantly, they must decide what traditions will be followed.
