This week in Sophomore Bible, we continued our journey through A Rebel’s Manifesto by Sean McDowell. Students explored topics such as “Judging Others” and “Social Media and Phones,” and both Mr. Rucker’s and Mr. McCloskey’s classes completed quizzes to help us assess student understanding and engagement with the reading.
We also spent time on a JOMO (Joy of Missing Out) lesson, which helped students reflect on how much time they spend on screens each week. Our hope is that this activity encourages students to pursue a healthier balance and develop greater awareness of how screens can influence their daily lives, habits, and relationships.
Mr. McCloskey:

Mr. Rucker

What is Next
Next week, we will move into Part 2 of the book, which addresses topics such as Entertainment and Politics. As we continue through this quarter, we encourage you to take a look at the book yourself and engage in conversations with your student about what they are learning and processing along the way. These discussions at home can be a meaningful extension of our classroom learning.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
Warm Regards,
Austin Rucker and Matt McCloskey
