  On
May 3, 2009 Prince Georges County held its annual "Write-A-Book"
awards ceremony. Our very own Malik Butts took second place in
the graphic novel competition. This is a great accomplishment
when you consider that every student in the Prince Georges
County was eligible but as they say, "The Cream always rises to
the top." Malik's comic book was titled, "Senior
Butts versus Magical Master." Congratulations Malik and we
look forward to your next novel (Caption by Mr. Navas 5/6/2009).

Why
I Love Teaching: I love teaching because it's
challenging, there is never a dull moment, and every day brings
something new. In the media center, my challenge is to teach
students and teachers on every level and in every subject area.
From the latest in green screen technology to basic arithmetic,
teaching is a continuous adventure and I love it. |

Accomplishments:
Mr. Navas is a member of the Prince Georges County Library Media
Support Team, which conducts monthly briefings on the latest
trends in Library Science to more than 20 Media Specialists
from Zone 5. He is also a member of the Thurgood Marshall
Leadership Team and is in charge of "Tiger TV,” which is used to
teach lessons, relay current events, and convey educational
television programming. In addition, Raul leads the
school’s Write a Book and yearbook clubs, and maintains the
school's Web site

| One of our esteemed 8th grade
scholars, Ravenn Mathis, just received a prestigious scholarship
from the Carson's Scholars Foundation. She was handpicked
out of a competitive pool of talented scholars from all around
the United States. Ravenn spent countless hours in order to
prepare her application for submission. She had help from Ms.
Murray, Ms. Chung, Mr. Navas and Ms. Fossett. "It was a great
accomplishment that will help me later in life," Ravenn says
with a smile on her face. This is surely only the beginning for
this great scholar (caption by Olivia Byrd). |

| TMMS recently took a trip to Virginia State University in
Petersburg, VA to enrich the scholars knowledge of the college
experience. The students got a first hand look into the life of
a college student, including: a mini step show with
Phi Beta Sigma Inc. and lunch with the
colligates. We also enjoyed a thorough tour of the school
with college instructors, who gave us some insight on what it
takes to get into a good college and how to survive once you
make it in. It was truly a eye opening experience for me and I
encourage everybody to visit the campus. Go Trojans!!! (Caption
