    Justice Roberts (2007) explained that the United States Supreme Court granted judicial review based “on two questions: whether Frederick had a First Amendment right to wield his banner, and, if so, whether that right was so clearly established that the principal may be held liable for damages” (p. 5). The first question against Frederick was resolved by the Court; however, the Court had “no occasion to reach the second” (Roberts, 2007, p. 5). Due to the event occurring during the normal operating hours of the school and being authorized by Principal Morse as a class trip or social function, school rules apply. Justice Roberts (2007) explained that the “school district’s rules expressly provide that pupils in approved social events and class trips are subject to district rules for student conduct” (p. 6).…

In addition, even if they complain, they are excluded from the option of taking a harder class because of the English level they can handle. The argument is unfair for those who excel in mathematical and scientific ability but lack of English proficiency.…

    Teacher Burnout Mr. Michael Baker, a new teacher at Woodrow Wilson Senior High School, is faced with the conflicting decision of whether or not it is his place to “blow the whistle” on his co-teacher, mentor, and friend, Mr. Frank Thompson, who has failed to fulfill his teacher obligation of properly educating his history class. This situation can be damaging because although Mr. Thompson’s class is well-known for receiving the highest grades statewide, his students are not actually being properly taught. In addition, after Michael was given the chance to ask a few basic history questions to Frank’s students, he realized that as a whole, his students really did not know much about history.
