Extra Credit Film Screening: Band of Brothers



An extra credit film screening will be held on Thursday, March 31st. The first two episodes of the HBO Miniseries "Band of Brothers" will be show in order to supplement in-class material on World War II.

Viewing the film and writing an historical film review will net students the opportunity to earn up to 5 extra credit points on the unit 4 test. Directions on how to write the film review will be discussed and distributed in class, immediately before the screening begins.

The screening will last from 3:45 until approximately 6:00pm. It is expected that students view the screening in its entirety, are attentive and are taking notes throughout the film. Any variance from this behavior will result in expulsion from screening. It is fine if you would like to bring food and/or beverages to the screening.

Also note, that the Sophomore Class Council will be selling pizza during the film. Pricing is as follows: $2 for one slice. $3 for two slices
