Once upon a time on the beautiful island of Hawaii, there were people everywhere on resort Namaste. It was a nice and peaceful place, light windy breeze, cool pretty blue water, children playing on the beach and people just relaxing on this nice Thursday. There were other resorts on the island, but Namaste was everyone’s favorite resort. The resort owner, Jack Nelson did everything in his power to make sure his guest was pleased while they stayed at the resort, so his resort could retain the title as the best resort of Hawaii islands. He also had an advantage as to why his resort was the best resort in Hawaii, it’s because he had a lot of friends and favorite guests and they always put the good word in for him. He also had some people who weren’t too fond of him and they tried everything in their power to destroy his business such as…

Have you ever felt the unbelievable satisfaction of coming home from a long day and going straight to bed? Most of us have, but unfortunately many teens can not solely rest when they get home from school. Schools all across America have been pushing later start times; greatly affecting the personal life of students, teachers, and parents. Later start times to schools only reject productiveness throughout your day by procrastinating the work you should be doing. The issue of school’s starting later influences students by leaving them with no time after school, disrupting their transportation schedule, and teaching them the significant lesson of responsibility.…
My favorite season ever is spring. I like spring because its never too hot and never too cold. I choose spring as my topic, because it is my favorite and because I love the things about this season. I love how one day it can be warm and beautiful and the next it can be rainy and cool. Spring is like a mystery to me. You never no what it's going to be like. Yes, I know they have weather forecasts but they aren't always one-hundred percent accurate. I also love this season because I spend most of it outdoors and I love the outdoors. From anything to fishing, horseback riding, to playing softball, whatever it is you can catch me outside pretty much everyday outside.…
My summer was great, I think this was the best one I ever had. The reason why that this year was the best summer ever was because I got to do everything that I wanted to do. I love my grandpa and my mom because I go to do everything that I wanted to do. Everything that I got to do was from them I got the money to go to Cedar Point from my mom and grandpa, and to go to the Luke Bryan concert. My summer was amazing and here is why.…
Have you ever wondered what year round school would work and function like at Philomath Middle School. Many K-12 schools are successfully using the year round school schedule in the United States. Year round school is a great way to raise academic achievement, reduce absences, and stem summer learning loss.…
Season for family and friends – from preparing your house for the festival (spring cleaning), shopping (for food /decorations for the Seder celebration), sitting next to family and friends (sharing memories of past year), tasting and smelling delicious foods (matzah balls (unleavened bread)wine), to dipping your finger in the wine glass during the recitation of the ten plagues…
Would a year-round school schedule improve students’ academic performance? There are many debates on whether schools should extend their educational calendar to a full year. While year-round school schedules have their share of benefits, there are also negative outcomes. People often claim the more the better, but what really matters is the quality, not quantity, of education. Year-round schooling should not be organized because students may develop health issues, wouldn’t be prepared for college, and students may miss out on other opportunities during the summer.…
The article “Don’t Mourn Brown V. Board of Education” by Juan Williams discusses that it is now time for something greater in effect than what the Brown V. Board of Education can offer us today. Brown V. Board had a huge part in civil rights movement and got Americans to think about inequality in society and in education. Assimilating students does not insure that students that are black or Hispanics will not drop out high school nor does it guarantee the narrowing of performance levels. In fact schools have become more segregated while the nation has become more diverse. Schools continued to fail even with Brown V. Board of Education was enforced. The parents began to become dissatisfied with their children being pulled out of neighborhood schools and instead being bussed to different schools further away. The Supreme Court realized that using school children to address segregation in school was not going to fix segregation in society. Busing students began to be replaced with magnet school and charter schools and eventually the Supreme Court began to believe that the fourteenth amendment was better served by treating children as individuals rather than as tools to enforce segregation.…
There is no doubt that the school system in the United State needs some adjusting. There is a proposal of possibly extending school hours or shifting the schools into a year-round type system. There are many advantages to having the school operate in a year-round schedule as opposed to the traditional schedule as well as disadvantages. A year-round schooling system needs to be considered for the United States county wide because shorter summer breaks allow children to retain more information from the previous year, better opportunities for local businesses and graduating seniors/teenagers looking for…
Going back to my best year! Sophomore year was the year I had to get myself together and stop acting so amateur, it was the year I start acting like an adult. Therefore It was a great year for me. My sophomore year was not like other teenagers, I had many downfalls, but that didn't stop me from accomplishing my goals. Around this time I wanted to try a sport for the first time, so I tried out for the wrestling team, but they didn't work out so well. Sophomore year I didn't make any new friends, cause I don't like making new friends, it's just too much. My day one friends stayed the same, these are the people who have been through hell and back with me. I didn't learn how to drive my tenth grade year, because I was procrastinating. I was skipping school and getting into…

Spring is a magical season for me. I love the sound of birds chirping, the smell of rain in the air, and the vibrant colors of the flowers starting to bloom. It awakens the senses. The winter cold is gone, yet the unbearable heat and humidity of summer in the south has yet to arrive.…
I guess that the summer s the pleasantest season. At this time of the year everything is neat and clean, the days are long. In the summer the heat can be unbearable and there can be hardly a breath of air. But at this time of the year the hot sun ripens the corn and fruit. There are plenty of strawberries, cherries, currants, gooseberries, raspberries, apricots, peaches, plums and blackberries, which are ripe and afford a treat for the old and the young. And what pleasure can compare with that of watching the glorious sunrise and sunset! Yes, undoubtedly, I prefer summer to any season of the year.…
