Even though the rain kept falling, the boys JV Soccer team
wouldn't let that dampen their spirits as they played to a 0-0
tie against district rival Thomas Jefferson.
There were multiple chances created by many players,

near miss at the back post. John Haskett came up with a
great one on one kick save to preserve the shutout.
The coaching staff would like to say how proud they are of

will meet on Friday to turn in uniforms after school.

SAT QUESTION
Andrew Jackson’s ideal vision of an American
nation composed of farmers and artisans had
become increasingly ------- by the 1860s, when
the new ------- economy was turning craftspersons
and planters into factory laborers.
A. antiquated . . agricultural
B. feasible . . industrial
C. elusive . . artistic
D. fanciful . . manufacturing
E. progressive . . urban
SAT ANSWER
Choice (D) is correct. If Jackson’s
vision were of a nation peopled by
farmers and artisans, it makes sense
to say that that vision had become
more “fanciful,” or imaginative, than
practical at a time when
manufacturing was drawing people
to factory jobs.
