Hello everyone,
Welcome to ALERT with Mr. Jason Ashley. This is my 16th year teaching, my 3rd in ALERT. I really enjoy the 4th/5th grade age range, they are a very interesting stage in their development as people and as learners. I am looking forward to helping them develop their full potential as gifted learners.

"To put it in perspective, the Pantheon is still the largest diameter unreinforced concrete dome in the world, meaning there is no reinforcing structure in or around the concrete, such as the rebar that would be used today. Still, after nearly 2000 years, it holds that record. The tallest building in the world changes about every 10 to 20 years, but the Pantheon has held its record for nearly 2000 years. That alone is a testament to the quality of the Roman engineering techniques that went into creating the Pantheon."
