Answer by bgee2001ca
How about doing a story on a former student from your school who after graduation went on to distinguish them self in their career of choice.
I am sure your teacher, counsellor, or principal would be able to supply information to you, as well as possibly setting up an interview with the individual.

How about doing a story on what the school was like 30 years ago. Maybe some of the kids have parents that went to the school. You could interview them, dig up old pictures, and write an article of what life was like at the school back then.

-What do students think of daily school life?
– Is bullying a problem in your school?
– Talk about horoscopes, and even make your own.
– It comes out in March, so I’m guessing you have a pep rally or some sort of Spring fling around then–make a story on that.
– Do an editorial, if you’re allowed, on what electives you think your school should/shouldn’t have.
– Talk about sports, clubs, etc.
– Maybe a story on doing a time capsule, and how it could be cool.
– Interview a teacher, one that’s popular possibly, and do a story on them.
– Seniors will be graduating in a few more months, maybe ask them if they’re happy they’ll be free, or scared to enter the real world. Then correlate that into whatever grade you’re in, and picture how you think your class will react during graduation.
– Should school lunch be improved, is it already too much.
– A good one would be about how underclassmen aren’t allowed to proms, try to find out where that came from.
– Are your school colors ugly, should they be changed.
– Maybe do something on a recent guest speaker in your school (if you had one)
– How you think the school will look in the future, as in years after you graduate.
– Are friends the highlight of the school day for most people, or do some students still look forward to learning something….
– Maybe talk about a project you’re doing in one of your classes, or a friend is doing (and possibly interview teacher about it). Like my biology teacher is having a few of her senior classes disect cats.
– YEARBOOK PICTURES. The good and bad about them (like having to take them on a day you didn’t know about)….
I could do a lot more, but this was just at the top of my head.

scientists: why is astrology bunk (natal astrology too not just daily horoscopes)?
i’m genuinely curious about your views i’m not challenging anyone
Answer by Geoff G
It all comes down to causality. There is no physical mechanism whereby the positions of the planets can have any effect on human events or personality.
Answer by Ryan
Astrology can be likened to religion in the way that people observe patterns in the sky and try to deduce it’s effects on humans. Having specific stars or planets overhead at the time of your birth does not have anything to do with your fate or your personality or your luck or your romantic life. Bottom line: There are no scientific links between the position of stars/planets and a person’s fate. Even the lining up of planets and stars does not cause gravitational disturbances on Earth.
Answer by Chandramohan P.R
The astrologers calculate the planetary position at time of birth.We know that the many factors of our life we get from our parents gene like possibility of diabetics,bald head,fatty stomach etc.Such herditary problems we get from parents and this happens when the sperm from male gets into egg of female.
So time of birth dont have nay effect on humans.Doctor may do a cesserian section and take child few days earlier!!!!More over astrologers dont take speed ofl l ight into consideration and dont know where the planets are actually in sky!
Answer by Leon B
What Geoff said. Also, astrology has been tested many times, and whenever it’s been rigorously tested, it consistently comes out no more accurate than random guessing. Professional astronomer Phil Plait, the “Bad Astronomer”, has an excellent page explaining why astrology has no credibility in the scientific community.
Answer by william
The planets and constellations do not do anything with your life, you are the one who makes decisions, astrology is pseudoscience.

I had a debate about this in college. Astrology is not — and never will be considered a serious science, because it based largely on suppostion and superstition. Nothing in astrology can stand up to reasoned, scientific inquiry. 1) there is no empirical evidence that the motions of celestial object have sufficient force to interact with terrestrial events; 2) take a sampling of all astrology predictions in all the major newspapers across the US and you will find that none of the them agree. The reason is simple: astrology is NOT an empirical science.
Astronomy split off from astrology perhaps 300 to 350 years ago.
Now, if you didn’t already know about this, the idea that the position of the planets influences your personality and fortune is not entirely unreasonable. I’m not saying it does, mind, just suggesting that as an hypothesis. So let’s test this idea for some kind of reasonable, factual or even scientific explanation.
One thing you might need is a suggestion of some kind of mechanism by which this influence acts. Can this mechanism be described in some distinct way? Not that I’m aware of. It’s just described as an “influence” which could mean just about anything.
Can this influence be measured, even approximately? Can you say that the influence is a few times stronger, or several times stronger, or many times stronger that at some other time or on some other person, place or thing? Not that I’m aware of.
So it is not carefully described and it isn’t measurable, as far as I’m aware. Science relies on things that are pretty carefully described and are measurable, and so does any other reasonable explanation, even if it isn’t really “scientific” but just common sense.
Now can you say for sure that all people born at the same time and in the same localities get much the same character or fortune? This should be fairly easy to test. Maternity hospitals in large cities have several babies born every 24 hours, all within minutes or hours of each other and all within a few dozen metres of each other. So if natal astrology works, then the characters and fortunes of these people must have strong resemblances. If this is true, then astrology produces a repeatable result.
From the other end, obtain biographies of people who are fairly well known in some field but not famous. There are plenty of those. Sports people who never quite make it to the top, scientists who make some moderate contributions but never get their names in the media, successful artists who are not famous, musicians regularly working in big orchestras and doing a bit of composing on the side, local government people like small town mayors, civil servants, small business people who do well, charity workers and you can probably think of a dozen more areas. Now send their birth dates, times and localities to astrologers. Obtain their natal charts and compare the charts with their known careers. Is there any match on average that is more than random?
That was tried in France during the 1970s, I can’t give a citation because it was so long ago that I saw it. There was no clear match between natal charts and career.
Fact is, the astrologers have had hundreds of years to come up with some clear description of the influences they talk about and the same time to give clear evidence that it works and is repeatable. So far, no dice.
