Payton Brooks Year Round Schools Mr. Reynolds April 1‚ 2016 Could you imagine sitting in a classroom in the summer? You would be sweating and wishing you could be outside playing or swimming. Wouldn’t that be HORRIBLE? If you said yes‚ you are like me and don’t like year round schooling. Year round schools cost a lot of money and disrupt schedules. Instead of the traditional 9 ½ months in school then a 2 ½ month break‚ year round schools go 6-9 weeks in school then have a 2-4 week break. In the

one of the common topics of conversation among the parent community is‚ “where are you going to send your kids to high school?” We genuinely have no idea. Our options are made much more complex by the fact that all of the six high schools within walking distance of our house (two public‚ four private) are single sex. When I talk about not wanting to send my boys to a single sex school‚ most parents are surprised that I would care. My reasoning is almost entirely about socialisation – I know enough people

Schools have to work in collaboration with a vast range of outside agencies or/and other professionals such as OFSTED‚ SENCO‚ specialist teachers‚ counsellors‚ social workers‚ educational psychologists‚ speech and language therapists and a vast array of others. Using experts is common practice and there are many other external professionals who will work with a school on a regular or purely ad-hoc basis as is necessary. These experts will have a high degree of specific professional knowledge and

in a year- round school? Year-round schools might be good or bad depending on how much help you will need. The three big things I’m going to write about in this paper is how the school operates. The benefits about going to a year-round school and the negatives about attending a year-round school. First off‚ you will need to learn how the daily and weekly schedules are set up. For example‚ some of the most popular schedules are 45-15 days. Which means students will attend school for 45 days and then

Have you ever thought that a cell phone would not be much of a problem if it was brought to school? Cell phones are usually used during lunch‚ breaks‚ right before and after class‚ and during class when it seems safe to use. Therefore‚ students should not be permitted to utilize cell phones during school hours and during both inside and outside a classroom. First of all‚ cell phones pose as a distraction to teachers‚ classmates‚ and the student with the cell phone. Students with cell phones are

Changing High School Policies People have different ideas of what needs to be changed in our school. I strongly accept other people’s opinions‚ whether they are right or wrong. It is good that we consider all possible ideas of making this school better for the kids and public. I have recently decided to give my input about an idea that I think needs to be added to the school policies. This policy has been in the back of my mind for quite a while now‚ and I have managed to gather all my thoughts

Changing in High school is kind of tuff; especially when you are going to the best High school in the city. I had to mature and get on my “A game”‚ because there are other people trying to beat me. From football to scholar ships‚ I had to change really fast if I wanted to be on top. I had to bring my “A game” to football‚ because other kids‚ like me‚ wanted to take my spot as a receiver. I changed as the coach wanted us to change. I changed from staying quiet to speaking up to the coach. I had to

At this school there is one thing that we should change. Obesity is in our school. It is also everywhere else in America. But‚ it is the wrong message to assume that it is all the schools fault. It is not. School comprises about seven or eight hours of a child’s day when it is open. It is only open about nine months out of the year. The remainder of the time the children are home or out and about with their friends. So then why are people blaming the schools? They may eat food out of a well stocked

Co-education is male and female persons in a learning environment (school) together as opposed to gender segregated education. Having attended both types of schools I can answer this. Gender segregated schools allow girls in particular to develop their strengths without worrying that some boy is going to be put off by her abilities. She can be outspoken‚ smart and in charge and it’s seen as a strength

Changing Who I Am Born in a small town in Fujian‚ China‚ a place with a population less than two hundred people‚ I could not have ever imagined myself standing here today‚ at Michigan State University‚ and becoming one of the forty-seven thousand students. My story began in China. I was a small town girl that moved to a bigger city. In another part of my life‚ I moved from China to the United States of America. And then‚ I graduated from a small high school and entered a large college‚ where
