Top Ten Schools In Gov. Sarah Palin’s Hometown Of Wasilla, Alaska (stanford business school)
No commentsBy Zander Smith
Gov. Sarah Palin came into the national spotlight in September, 2008 and so did her small hometown of Wasilla, Alaska. Americans in the ‘Lower 48,’ as named by Alaskans, were given a crash course on Alaska and all things Alaskan. This has started dreams of snow machine races and moose stew in the heads of some of my friends and I’m sure, many of you reading this article.
To that end, I have decided to see what the poor kids who are about to be dragged by their starry-eyed (or maybe snow-blinded) parents would have to deal with in terms of continuing their education. Here are the top 10 schools in Wasilla, Alaska that parents (and children) might want research before renting that Budget truck.

Put A Fire In Your Child About The Nation’s History
By Aydan Corkern
If you have a child in school that seems to love a certain subject over all of their other subjects, try to find out which one it might be and try to put a small fire in their minds about this subject. There are some kids who really seem to love math, history, or even science. I think I liked history best as anything that pertained to Indians or the West. I loved to read about our history, and I was almost to the point of having that little fire in my soul about what happened to our Indian tribes.
I didn’t like what our elders did to these proud tribes; in truth, I think that they cheated the Indians out of their land. I also believe that we have now repaid them several times over. These tribes now are governed by their own laws in pertaining to anything that might happen on their reservation with the understanding that if the offense were to happen outside the reservation, the council couldn’t help them.
The history of our nation is usually a very big thing in the minds of every race that happens to be living in this nation of ours. We need to put all of our petty disagreements behind us for the good of our nation. The United States of America is what some would call a Heinz 57 mutt, but we don’t need to make ourselves look like one. The history of our nation should be the very backbone of our country and those that live here.
If you don’t think that you should have to pay taxes like the rest of us that do, then you need to go back to your point of origin and stay in your own country to help that country live. They say that our country is still the greatest and the strongest country. In that case, we don’t need all of these people that don’t want to be considered as real Americans. We are taxed enough as it is and have so many that aren’t, and they hide to keep from doing so. If they were to do this, then we as a country would not have to pay all of these taxes.
It is our right to work hard where we want, be free to do what we want when we want and be happy or proud of what we have done. We have fought for all of our rights and have earned every one of them so now we need to come together as one.
