By the time I finished the sixth grade I was ready for the seventh and eighth grade, Jr. High School. I continued with the special educational program, through the eleventh grade. I was successful with my grades, and my teachers were supportive. However, reaching the twelfth grade, the teachers were not as supportive as I experienced in my previous years in school. I struggled with my classes with the little support I was given; I became dissatisfy with school.
As seen in the documentary, 2 Million Minutes, students use all their time they have in high school, studying, memorizing their school curriculum order to get a great education at a high level university to become very successful in their lives. This all ties into how the political aspect of the classroom has an impact on the society as a whole and having this power can change generations to come.

I hated to do this so as I said before, this teaches that lesson of what’s right and wrong, therefor learning civility. As I got grew up I learned something every year. In first grade I learned that when older people help younger kids out for a whole school year you can really learn a lot. We had 8th grade buddies that were there every morning waiting for us in our classroom to talk to us before the school day started. Our teachers were very old and wise so they knew that this wouldn’t just be a learning experience for the 8th graders but also the 1st.
Judy Jones was a teacher, then an administrator, and now, she is a principal at Greenleaf Elementary in Texas. While principal, Judy’s superintendent gave her one year to turn her failing school into an academically successful school. Judy used her previous skills as a teacher, and on the first day of school; she re-read The First Days of School, but this time, she read it from a principal’s perspective. Judy told her students and teachers to work and learn positively; and they should all have high expectations for others and themselves. She strongly believed in structure and procedure.
I was a huge jock in high school and it has taught me to be a team player and a leader in my life. Right now I do not have a job. I was laid off by my last employer and I felt that it was a sign that I should go back to school again and get that all important degree. I’m going to get my associates first then I’m going to get my bachelors. I have been in the retail business my whole professional career and felt that a business degree would help me achieve my goals.

April 25, 2013 To: Kristin Williams Staffing & Talent From: Visit with Stepping Stone School Round Rock This being my first visit to a Stepping Stone School my expectations and standards were at level of prior pre-school facilities that I have worked at and visited it. When I entered into Stepping School at the Round Rock location the facility created a new level of child development standards.

All it really takes is for one teacher, just one, to give you the extra push that you need to succeed academically. For me it was my high school history teacher Mr. Zigler. From my freshman to senior year of high school, Mr. Zigler would tutor me in all subjects to help me succeed and to help me get into advanced placement classes as well. Not only that, but I trusted him with everything, it was like he was my personal therapist in school, being that I didn’t have that at home. It was with his help that
The main idea that we must all consider is the children. This act has had its run for the past 11 years and has been great; however, each student is different in his or her own way. This act needs a shift in attention and emphasis. Teachers who are just teaching the test are robbing students of a full education ride that they could have without such a test. Allowing teachers to teach beyond the test is what will allow students a much more vivid mind and give them a wide range of knowledge.
