Behind the Door
By Mikaela Rice ~ age 12
Behind the door is a deadly silence or a loud racket
Behind the door is death or something born anew
Behind the door is darkness eternal or a room filled with light
Behind the door is poverty or luxury beyond imagination
Behind the door is sickness or healing
Behind the door is draught or a shimmering lake
Behind the door is despair or hope
Behind the door are frightening enemies or loving friends
Behind the door it’s bleached or filled with color
Behind the door is boredom or a place filled with fun
Behind the door are stormy days or sunshine filled weeks
Behind the door is the end of all or a new dimension
Behind the door is rotten wood or leafy trees in the spring
Behind the door is your worst fear or something you adore
Behind the door is a lonesome mouse or a room bustling with people
Behind the door is raging madness or overpowering happiness
Behind the door is molten rock or the farthest reaches of the sky
Behind the door is eternal imprisonment or promised freedom and justice
Behind the door are murderers or young kids throwing flowers
Behind the door are jagged rocks or smooth pebbles on the ground
Behind the door is a horde of mosquitoes or a flittering bunch of butterflies
Behind the door is only what you believe or what you know

My Wonderful Experience with SNS
by Bharat Sanders, Age 11
Working with the SNS team has been a wonderful experience for me. I love that I am the first student, in the first SNS school here in Atlanta. I am so
happy that I have even been considered part of the staff! Thanks to Mr.
Paolo, Ms. Burnham, Ms. Linda, Mr. Gary, Ms. Darlene, Ms. Nancy, Ms.
Christina, Ms. Norma, Ms. Sherri, Dr. Adrienne, Ms. Brianna, Ms. Helene, and
last but not least my parents for the wonderful encouragement and the
consideration for my ideas. Usually adults look at kids speaking up at
meetings or around adult conversations, as being rude or interfering. The SNS teaching staff all allowed me into their circle and really respected
me with my ideas and I so appreciated that.
Another good thing that came about with this School was the fact that I started a dream journal. Someone mentioned it as an activity in their curriculum and I felt that that idea was grand. So I started it! Nowadays, every morning that I remember my dreams or feel that the dream is important, I type it up to be looked at later and to check the meaning of the dream. I even bought a dream journal from the Inner Space store. I feel that SNS and its community are splendid and I can't wait to get started with the year!!!
