Thirty years ago, students attending Wahconah Regional High School had a different experience as they went through their normal activities of the year. For example, if a student were to play two sports throughout the course of an academic year, they did not have to pay a sports fee (today that fee is $100). Why is that? The answer is simple. Funding is different because the tax system imposed on the seven surrounding towns.…

Our Lady of the Lake College is a Catholic institution that was created in honor of St. Francis of Assisi, who firmly believed that all of creation spoke volumes of God’s love for us. St. Francis was raised in a fairly wealthy family, and it was not until he was captured at battle for two years, that he decided to embark on the glorious journey of knowing Jesus Christ. He began preaching to word of God, and embraced others that were not of his kind. Students who attend Our Lady of the Lake College should be of the same example to others throughout their academic careers. As Franciscans, We live by five core values that are service, reverence and love for all of life, joyfulness of spirit, humility, and justice.…

Some students consider school as an escape from the harsh realities they face in the outside world. School is also the only opportunity some students have for reaching their goals and having their dreams fulfilled. Nonetheless, it is tremendously important that schools are providing every single student with the best opportunities possible to help and ensure their successes. No school is perfect, but by analyzing and criticizing Concord Middle School’s goals and goal plans and curriculum, they are a step closer to greatness. Also while evaluating how Concord Middle School manages culture, socialization, and equity, there was some evidence that proved that the school had its flaws but it has showed every effort in moving forward.…
After reading a few chapters of Strengths Quest, I was instructed to participate in the Strengths Finder assessment (Anderson, Clifton, & Schreiner, 2006). This 30 minute assessment was an interesting tool that pointed out my greatest strengths. It also provided a detailed description of what having those strengths mean and examples of how they are prominent in a person 's life.

Killen DeBeers article talks about how experiences, feelings, thoughts and beliefs ignite images and insight as we reflect and embrace on our journey through life (1994). Being brought up in a Catholic community and school system has built my moral foundation, beliefs and values that I wish to share with others through my teaching practice. The Catholic school system is a compassionate, caring and supportive environment with the idea of a family community. The community becomes your family as the Catholic school system welcomes diversity and teaches individuals to love, respect and treat everyone and everything as you wish to be treated, as we are all brothers and sisters and children of God. I want to be able to teach and share these amazing teachings in all my classrooms.…
The job of a principal in any academic setting is a monumental task as students, curriculum, parents, teachers, faculty, legal issues, etc., all vie for guidance and attention. But I believe that the job of a Catholic school leader entails far more because I believe the profession of Catholic school leader is a vocation rooted in Christ. My role as a Catholic school principal is one of managerial leader, educational leader and most importantly as spiritual leader. It is my job to nurture a faith community that is built with relational trust and where my school can be transformed into a sacred place (Sergiovanni, 2015, p.12).…
