the students. So who’s left? The government, correct? The government for North Carolina schools should have kept the exemption law. It’s when a student passes a course for the final grade, he/she would not have to take the exam. But now that law is vanished. Ever since then, the education system has been disintegrating. Another reason why the government is at blame is because some of the teachers at a school are low grade, unsatisfactorily motivated, and below par for their profession. ("Who Is…

experience? On the day of April 27, 2014, Jesus has walked into my soul. Before I surrendered my entire life to Jesus, I grew up catholic with no understanding about god. Without experiencing any wisdom or faith through elementary school until the middle of high school about my own belief made me believe I failed as an individual. The unknowing about God had me go the wrong direction in life. The emptiness and confusion left me questioning myself if there is a god. Growing up without faith or…

they had to make school fun and exciting for each student. They are the reason I want to be an elementary school teacher. Being a teacher is something that I have always seen myself doing with my future. I want to continue in their footsteps by impacting the lives of students in the same way my teachers did before me. I cannot think of a more rewarding career than teaching young minds how to believe in themselves in and out of school. Most people do not realize…

change. The school I attended was small, my grade had around 50 students each year. This was normal to me, I had never heard of schools with 300 students per grade until I was much older. When I began school, in kindergarten, everything, from my classmates, to having a specific schedule to follow, was new to me.

When analyzing the topic Sexual Identity I investigated that the majority of people were against schools teaching sexual identity however, some don’t. In discussion of sexual identities, one controversial issue has been that not many people or not many parents agree to schools teaching students this topic. On the other hands theirs parents that don’t mind about schools teaching it. Others even maintain they well support their children no matter what they want because it’s up to them. My own view…

room and help out my classmates to make sure they were understanding the material in front of them. I loved going around the classroom and helping my classmates learn. Nothing had ever given me so much joy. After a long day at school, I would immediately run home and play school with my Barbie’s and teach them what I had learned in class earlier that day. It was…

School officials have taken some crucial steps toward improving student’s performance in school. School officials have gathered new teachers and put metric steps in place to obtain data that can and will allow them to build a stronger school. The effort expands further than just to the students however. Teachers are also measured off these metrics as well and how hard they work to improve the students understanding and attendance to school work. This started when Chicago won a $20 million in…

civic-mindedness, courage, compassion, resourcefulness, sense of beauty, sense of wonder, honesty, integrity." There is more to a student than just how well or how poorly one does on a standardized test, but the tests themselves measure or inform schools that. On that same note, these tests don’t necessarily show us we’re capable of or how much we’ve learned. It only shows what a student is capable of in a single time frame without taking into account the emotional or the mental state of that…

was too in Kindergarten by my older sister. Kids my age after school usually finished any homework assigned; then played with friends or watch television.
