hen the Humanities class studies the Middle East, Mr. Davis lends Ms. Jaquez his traditional dress (He is a Syrian-American) and the boys dress up and take pictures. Given the current political climate, her students made the card celebrating him and all Syrian-Americans.

Mr. Davis also went with the class to the El Paso Museum of Art, the Holocaust museum, and San Jacinto Plaza downtown! It was a tie-in to the History of Jewish people and the novel read in class called _I, Juan, de Pareja_ about Baroque artist Juan de Pareja. He was nice enough to help chaperone.
