New bike path !!!

After months of hard work, we are closer to accomplishing our goal!

Global Trade Center, a private company who owns the land between ASW and the main road, volunteered to construct a bike path in front of the school for everyone to use.

The old "dirt path" is extremely narrow and only about 1 meter from the road. This new bike path is much safer and comfortable to ride on, as it is wide, and a lot further from the street.

This is only one step further in accomplishing our goal. We still hope that longer and paved bike paths will be built in the future, which seems now much more realistic than we ever thought.

Meeting with the mayor of Konstancin

Marek Skowronski, the mayor of Konstancin-Jeziorna came to ASW and met with Mr. Schaffner's 10th grade comparative government class on May 19th, 2010. Mr. Skowronski is a member of the conservative PIS party. He spoke to our class about major political issues and his role in the local government of Konstancin.

Mr. Skowronski mentioned that the street near our school will be widened this year, and the government will build a permanent bike path in front of the school.
