Should homework be banned? Schools should not give homework for a variety of reasons. Learning is best done at school and stress is often caused by work given by schools. The need to do lots of additional work makes people prefer not to learn more about the topic. As students do undesirable activities, they lose otherwise better spent time with their family and friends.
Some of the concerns were lack of space in high school cafeteria, school safety, school after care programs ,and head coach for high school football. These were a few of the concerns mention during public floor. High school students was upset that the Board was not concerned with building an larger cafeteria for the students and that they should not have to go outside to an trailer for additional space to eat there lunch. Students also wanted to know why the locker room showers has not been repaired. A few teachers spoke on having more safety measuring during school and after school.
Students should not have Credit Cards in College EM Swiams Com 156 2/20/2011 Elizabeth L. Vunk Credit card companies are marketing on college campuses that have led to a growing trend of young adults, in America, becoming trapped in the financial nightmare of high debt acquired while in college. Many things transpire quickly when a young person leaves high school and starts off for college. For those moving out of his or her parent’s house, there are dwelling arrangements, food and spending money to be considered. Depending on the level of support from the parents, the student also needs at least some financial income for food, supplies, entertainment, etc. When both the parental support and other income do not fill the need or desire of financial independence students are more increasingly turning to credit cards.
In fact, parents regularly work five days a week leaving their kids in school for those days. With the four days program, they will have to revamp child-care plans increasing the supposed cost saving. Therefore, school districts have to reconsider the switch to four days school because it will bring more expenses than savings. Another point that Shmidt mentions is that four days school will not affect the academic progress. Nevertheless, in “Four is not Enough” explains that MACCRAY students, currently in the four day program, “scores are significantly below” (USA Today, 307) to the rest of the state average classes.
It was sensitive of the teacher to consider any language barrier by having translators present at this speech. By staying after school until 8pm the teacher is giving an opportunity to all of her students and parents to have a chance to come by personally after work to have a meeting. If the teacher cannot make herself available to her students parents she is less likely to be affective. By giving out handouts it can act as an icebreaker for some parents, as well as, more importantly continue to help parents feel more directly involved with their childs education. I believe the affect a translator has on parents is obvious, for parents of students who are learning English themselves it is paramount to any real communication.
A student will search, apply, and interview for a paid position possibly several times before being hired. Locating a company that is willing to hire busy high school students can be difficult due to company age requirements and the students’ complicated schedules. The Fair Labor Standards Act establishes the requirements a young person must meet to be legally employed. Minors under sixteen years old can only work a set number of hours per day unless they are proven to no longer be enrolled in school. In addition, they cannot manufacture explosives, mine, or operate certain power tools or machines.
In High Schools around the United States scores are getting worse and worse and it’s due to unmotivated teachers who don’t care about the integrity of teaching anymore because it all seems pointless in this current time. You could make a lot more points about High School and its flaws but these ones are the biggest ones that need addressing. From High School to College, a lot of things change. In College you pick your classes, your times, basically everything. You have freedom to do what you like and aren’t held back by counselors and certain start times.
Notes on Readings Chapter 1 31-62 Section: ____________________________ Page #: ____________________ Notes on Readings "Plight of the Little Emperors" by Taylor Clark There was a boy whose mom would come to class everyday so that she could monitor how he was doing with his studies. Parents would go to extremes to give their child the edge over everybody else. One test in China will decide what type of life you will have. If you do good on the test you can go to good schools and have a relatively easy life, if you do poorly on the teat then you will have to work hard for the rest of your life. All of the pressure on the young students has led to frustration, depression and unemployment because they are unwilling to take jobs that they feel
This is so because of the fact that this is another stressful matter these young minds must also deal with. Home and school stability is another cause to for students dropping out of high school. More than half of dropouts have moved within their four years of being in high school. If a student does not have a stable home or a stable school life, then they are more likely to drop out of school. Stableness allows the student to feel comfortable enough to try to work at school.
