I let myself go in the middle
I put some stuff on top of my head
When the a/c was filled with lint
And the fan was ripping off
Whatever posters I had left
Because the room became just a tiny bit smaller
Once they boycotted an understanding
A desire to be content
Within the limits of oneself

I let myself go in the middle
Three weeks without a home
Making phone calls to anyone but us
Atop of a needing pin destroying our patience
Seldom a death sentence
But a burden nonetheless

I let myself go in the middle
Among happiness and truth
And misery and exhaustion
Breaking promises made
Out of calories
And drinks
And almonds
And dinners with our friends
Objecting to our bodies
In a thousand different languages
Yelling in beautiful agony
"Look at the mirror now -
give it another try"


To vicarious pragmatism
The elemental sweating of ideas
And whatever is left in the pantry
For anyone to indulge
In the comfort of many different reasons
For rejecting any ambition
Puked and spat over the beauty
Of the sheets you slept in

To never falling asleep after a long day
And the things you want to do
You'll never do them
You might do them
You'll never do them

To feeling amazing over the prejudice
Against our useless bodies
Going steady until it crashes
Crying and begging for the last time
You thought everything was alright.

I let myself go in the middle
Wishing I wasn't dead
I let myself go in the middle
And it's making me upset.
-R.G Magellan

he slept in my bed after i filled his body with insects & panic & grandfather sewn seeds i was useless inside him; trade organs for oceans is there a vaccine for this? to clean out all the unborn kids (a whole graveyard here in this bed) he broke me good where the landlord left scars emptied all the bedrooms to reclaim the stretchmarks we were to our throats in grass! we tore down the treehouses! and our brothers were kindling for the lovesongs that we couldn't sing because we drowned all our songs in the bathtub (you could hear them way up in the rafters) and the preachers sleeping in the attic stole them all for scriptures we sing nothing, now; our mothers ask us how we pray with the lights out for songs to fill our mouths.

i.
you snuck in my window and seared an x over my heart with fingertips like the shadows on my wall.
you slip through my skin like a secret
and i lock you in my chest because i do not want you to go. but like a ghost, you drift away from me,
leaving a hole like the hesitance between breaths
and an unbearable silence in your absence.
ii.
you return in the night when my blood
is sluggish in my veins, you sidle up
and tap me on the shoulder
as if you’ve been standing next to me
since the beginning of time,
and i can’t fathom how i could have forgotten,
or how i could have missed you so much.
iii.
 there are days when you are no more
than a whisper clinging to the back of my neck,
or a drumbeat only i can hear, and there are days
when your words echo through my bones
and they shatter
like glass, there are days
when you rage through my blood like a fever
and make me want to punch myself in the face,
and there are days
when i can’t breathe.
iv.
and in the darkness your voice was a choir painted gold that shone through my dreams, shone in a halo
around your smoke-stained face,
and i believed in you like a myth.
i believed in you as the lights flickered
and the sky broke under the weight of the world,
and i believed in you when the blackness came, i —
v.
i believe in you
like
angels
so wrap me in your wings
and
bring me
home.

To The Reader


This is it. This is happening. I've been trying to make Scruds happen for some time now and it's insane I get to do it so freely. I have been insanely alienated from the world for the past couple of months it's weird to think I can finally speak my mind. And a lot has happened in between: coming out, coming to terms with my mental illness, discovering new reads and listen, protested, fell in love, bought some records, etc.

The mere idea of making this project possible and watch it take off as it goes is truly mesmerizing. I envisioned Scruds as a call for equality embellished in the efforts of some of my best friends. Inside these pages you will find that we have a zero tolerance for racist, sexist, homophobic, and transphobic behaviour. Everyone involved in the making of this very first issue has gone through a lot and are deserving of the respect that comes with being great musicians, poets, writers, painters, and artists. But it's more than okay; It is beautiful to realize our common goals are consolidated into a desire for change.

On this feature, you will find male, female, transgender, genderfluid/queer artists of divergent backgrounds whom I have formed incredibly beautiful bonds with. I know all of these kids personally and hold them to a great sense of esteem. They aren't preachers or politicians or advertisements or poster children; they merely want to express their joys and fears through a biasless lens. They cheerfully use their art for the cause: to speak against any sort of discrimination and to reaffirm the belief that everyone is born equal and has the right to become whoever they want. The belief that condoning rape is a crime against humanity. The belief we shouldn't be prejudicing against anyone regardless of their sex, colour, orientation and creed. The belief that gender is a social construct that has favoured some and screwed over others. The belief that we can change that. We are one.

So, before you mingle among the pages of this publication, I would love to thank the following people for their help and support:

                                            Dianna Sanchez                    Benjamin Davis            Maeve Holler
                                            Jordaan Mason                      Anna Serafini               Dakota Fahney
                                            Claudia Morales Gomez         Mark Garza                  Gabrielle Steib

Thank you so much guys! I love you!

The main dispute stemmed from the fact that the Church was selling indulgences, people were literally buying their way into heaven. In B.C. , they started telling people that in order for their loved ones to go to heaven, they had to pay the church a lot of money, or they would go to the underworld forever. It was a huge money making scheme

World History Daily
Martin Luthers agruments against indulgences in the Catholic Chruch
  Martin Luther's criticism of the Catholic Church was written in a his famous pamphlet called "95 Theses". It was basically a criticism against the indulgence which was put into practice by the Catholic Church during the papacy of Pope Leo X.
 Martin Luther and others questioned the Catholic Church by relying on scriptures, the first printed books became available to the populations because of the printing press.
Martin Luther Sparked The Reformation in Germany by opposing Roman Catholic teachings.
Common people could read and understand the Bible. Bibles were only written in Latin at the time, and only priests learned how to read Latin. The Church used this to its advantage, and sometimes lied to the people what the Bible said to work for the benefit of the Church.
Protestant Reformation Martin Luther 95 theses 
In 1517, the priest and scholar Martin Luther enters the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany, and nails a piece of paper to it containing the 95 revolutionary opinions that would begin the Protestant Reformation. 
Desiderius Erasmus (1466-1536) made some of the same scathing attacks on Church practices as Luther, arguing against the fancy court life at Rome and against the selling of indulgences . Unlike Luther, however, Erasmus never advocated views leading to excommunication.     
 In the 1380s Wycliffe, a professor at Oxford, translated the Bible from the Latin Vulgate into English. He did this because he felt that the Bible held authority over the Church, not vice versa. 
Sales of Indulgences 
In January 1521, Pope Leo X excommunicated Luther. Three months later, Luther was called to defend his beliefs before Holy Roman Emperor Charles V at the Diet of Worms, where he was famously resistant. For his refusal to deny his writings the emperor declared him an outlaw and a heretic. Luther was protected by powerful German princes, however and by his death in 1546 the course of Western civilization had been significantly altered.

The Romero Times: Publication 1 Edition 3

The Romero Times
By: Kenya and Allison , Class of 2020

"One good thing about music is that when it hits you you feel no pain"- Bob Marley. 
Music through the ages was a day to remember.  6th, 7th, and 8th graders have a dance each year. This dance in particular celebrate music from each generation. 

We asked Miss, Mattivi how long it took her and student council to make plans and choices for the dance.  In reply she said, " It took us a little over 2 months to make a plan". Also she said that it took $203 to make this dance come to life. Student council made the decision of what was going to be sold to raise the money that was need to create the dance. Student council voted for the theme that was used at the dance, which was "Music Through the Ages". 

"There are natural leaders, they did things quickly and showed ownership" replied Miss. Mattivi when we asked her if decorating was hard to do with the whole team of students. Miss. Mattivi said, the students behavior was fabulous and she would rate the students behavior a 10. Also she said she never worried about behavior.  

We asked her some simple questions about her musical identity. We asked her how it felt to be DJ Gummy-bear and she answered, " I always joke that I feel like Kanye West here at Bella Romero.   My favorite thing about being DJ is getting to wear the hat", which is a snap-back hat with a gummy bear on the front.  Some steps Miss. Mattivi took to prepare herself for DJ Gummy-bear is, one she dresses the part.  She gets in the mindset by dancing in front of her bathroom mirror and she also tells everyone to call her by her stage name throughout the day.

As you can see, a lot of work went into making this memorable dance of 2015.


Let's Dance Like It's 1999!
By Estefania, Cheyenna, and Nathan, Classes of 2020 and 2019

The K-3 campus of Bella Romero has a lot going on right now. One of their best projects is their mural. The school has decided to paint a mural in one of their hallways to remind students that no matter what Bella's family is their family. We talked to the K-3 art teacher to ask him about this project.

A mural is a piece of art applied on a wall. Murals date from around Upper Paleolithic times. Many famous artists have made many murals. Among the famous artists are Diego Rivera, David Siqueiros, and Jose Orozco. Murals have become a very good way to express yourself. 

"The idea came from Mr.U who thought it would be a good idea to have a mural." Mr. Archibald only had a group of kids that did the mural. Like the leadership team only got to do the mural so it was really cool that those kids got to do the mural. "It's just a reminder that no matter what the students go through at home, this is their home." Mr Archibald says.

The students on the leadership team were really excited about this too. "It's fun because we get to paint the mural." Brenda from the class of 2024 said. The leadership team is the team in charge of painting. The leadership team is a team of students chosen by teachers.

This mural is going to take a few years to complete. Every part is going to be done by a different kid and a different color.   

Student Artwork to Deck the Halls of K-3

Families. We all have them! Did you know that instruments belong to families, too? Well, there are many families in the music world, including the string family, the percussion family, the woodwind family, and the brass family.  The class of 2021 has been working hard to learn to play the brass and woodwind instruments so they can travel and perform for others/  They want to show how hard they have worked and how great and fun music can be!  

Three popular members of the brass family are the trombone, trumpet, and the french horn.  The three most popular instruments from the woodwind family are the clarinet, saxophone, and the flute.  Miss Dodson, the music teacher at Bella Romero Academy 4-8 campus, has done a great job with her students and has helped them create a successful Brass/Woodwind Traveling Band!  

Mrs. Dodson said that she loves being a teacher at Bella Romero. She also says that her students are smart and talented. She also feels very lucky to make music with Bella Romero's family.  Making music can be difficult sometimes and you need to stay motivated to improve!  She said that all instruments are hard to play if you don't realize that all songs have patterns.  

We heard teachers talking about how good they were so we went to see them ourselves to hear them play before the interview. They were awesome! The song the band played for us was Hot Cross Buns, one the many songs they practice to perform. Their teamwork was the interesting thing about the students.  They really had to work hard to perform together!

They started their traveling at 2:00 on the 18th of February thru the 25th of February. Mrs. Dodson says that music is a tradition and she wanted to preserve that tradition. So she wants all younger people to learn to play music because she believes it makes there life's better.  Music is a tradition at Bella Romero Academy and always will be. 

Brass/Woodwind traveling Band
Tri star is a really fun basketball competition that gives you an opportunity to compete against other students to go compete and the Pepsi center.

The point for this competition is to just have fun and ball up!! This year many students competed and only a few made it to the Z competition. The third one will be held at the Pepsi center competeing. If you make it,you get to tour around the Pepsi center and you also get 50% of a ticket for the Denver Nuggets game.

The stations were easy. All you had to do was shoot 4 free throws, dribble the ball around some cones as fast as they can. The third one was when you have to pass the ball but instead of passing it to a person you have to hit a target.

In conclusion Tri-Star is a really enjoyable competition people can try for fun. Tri-star is only a once in a year life-time!! Therefore tri-star is really fun, you should try yourself.
The newest technology in the school
In Bella Romero, we have lots of new technology. For example, the new 3D printer and the virtual reality goggles. This new technology has made many sorts of stuff thanks to the robotics printing team. Like robot toys, phone cases, and dog tags. "The 3D printer is sick!" Says Aron Vega. The 3D printer that they use is Makerbot.

They also build robots In the class. They build robots with Lego mindstorm and vex robot maker. And with the virtual reality goggles they can turn specific apps into 3D! The 3D printer even printed virtual reality goggles. The robots they made are unique because the are able to bend their joints and they had even made a monkey! The company Makerbot has made custom home 3D printer. Makerbot has made four different 3D printers. The link is http://www.makerbot.com.

As you can see, robotics is a interesting class. In the class, we have learned that they make robots, virtual reality, and things made with the 3D printer. As you can see the 3D printer is amazing technology. So therefore this were some of the new technology we have in our school.

Prints made by the 3D printer team can be found in our East Memorial Learning Lab at the 4-8 Campus.
