Volleyball season has come and gone. We had a few teams finish strong. Captain Shreve senior Tori Reich made the most of her opportunity on the court and now she can continue playing on the next level.
That’s why she’s this week’s Landers Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram Athlete of the Week.
This week’s Landers Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram Athlete of the Week, one of the top incoming freshmen, has a name for himself even before transitioning from the track to the high school football field.
About a dozen Captain Shreve High students will start the seminar portion the AP Capstone program this fall. Another nine will move on to the research portion.

Students at Captain Shreve and two other Caddo Parish high schools were offered a new advanced placement course this school year.
Before the school year began, Captain Shreve Principal Ginger Gustavson, and the teacher of the AP Capstone course, Amy Douglas, explained new coursework and how they are preparing for it.
Douglas said this class is designed to push her students out of their comfort zone and to a higher level.
“I have seen lots of growth in all of my students,” said Douglas. “At first, what I saw was papers that look a lot like book reports and what I am asking them is being an attorney getting ready for trial. You can’t just tell the information. You have to tell me is it credible, where did you get it from, was that source credible and do you agree with it.”

Gator cheerleader and fishing team member Harlee Connell is honored as KSLA’s Landers Dodge Athlete of the Week.
Students at Captain Shreve, C.E Byrd and Caddo Parish Magnet high schools will have new advanced placement coursework offerings this academic year.
Amy Douglas, who will be teaching the AP Capstone classes at Captain Shreve High in Shreveport, just got back from a week of training.
This is not your typical high school class, she observed.
“This is a skills-based class. So it’s not biology content, history content or English content. … We are teaching the students skills, and they will be evaluated and assessed on those skills at the end.”
Douglas said her students will learn critical thinking skills, reading attacks, posing a problem and coming up with a solution, looking at the same problem from a different perspective then coming up with a counterargument from the different perspective.
