I am a new contributor to the wikipedia community and I hope my contributions will increase the notability of Wikipedia as a reliable source for information. Most, if not all my contributions revolve around the Issaquah School District which is located in the community of Issaquah, Washington. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
Articles I Have Created edit
Issaquah Middle School edit
I have recently completed a renovation of the page Issaquah Middle School which is a middle school that is part of the Issaquah School District. The page now contains less trivial information but information and events that have affected the community as a whole. I find this article better written to wikipedia standards and I hope that the wikipedia community will see it the same as well.
Issaquah Middle School is a middle school serving students in grades 6-8 in Issaquah, Washington and Bellevue, Washington as part of the Issaquah School District. Located in the vacinity of Issaquah Middle School is the Issaquah Community Center and Issaquah Creek, as well as the older portion of downtown Issaquah along Front Street[1]. Students at Issaquah Middle School feed in from Cougar Ridge Elementary, Clark Elementary, Issaquah Valley Elementary, as well as some of the students that attend Sunset Elementary and Grand Ridge Elementary. The students continue to Pacific Cascade Freshman Campus for their freshman year (until fall of 2010) and Issaquah High School for the rest of their high school career[2].
The Long Journey Home edit
This article called The Long Journey Home is one that I have spent several weeks of collaboration of information, but still needs some input by the wikipedia community which I hope will greatly add to the article.
The Long Journey Home was a ceremonial event held at the main campus of the University of Washington on May 18, 2008 commemorating the Japanese American students that attended the school from 1941 to 1942 whom of which were prevented from receiving an education at the university due to Executive Order 9066 which called for all Japanese Americans to be removed from their private residences and to be sent to internment camps along the western portion of the United States. The ceremony consisted of the "presenting of the honorary degrees which were given to all the students who attended that school during the affected years.
