For Summit, it is the principal. For my family, it is my parents. The principal can control school policy and my parents decide what I can or cannot do. But most of it isn’t so bad.

Many people are not aware that school funding is a current issue within the public school systems. Not only are people who do not have children not informed; the parents of the students are not informed. For example, the principal of a Title I school should not have to make the decision of picking between having a library OR a reading instruction teacher when the students clearly need both. There is an ongoing effort to get the parents of the students involved and educated. This will help bring more attention to the needs of the school which will in turn help their children, the students.…
RATIONALE Schooling or education exposed through experience and exposure. Whether or not it is freedom or oppression is highly debatable and depends on several factors. If you were not African-American, Native American, poor, and a male, then schooling was a source of freedom. If you were Anglo-American and wealthy, then you were entitled to the best that education offered. If you receive the best education, then that resulted in money, power and privilege.…

Common Core Testing is Not Beneficial to Students Core Connection The administrators stuffed in suits strut through our school clenching clipboards, nod plastic smiles| Speak words like “common core,” like “standards” & “benchmarks”. But those of us who live in these rooms, who know each other's stories & share apples and granola bars because there was no food in the house after dad was arrested– We nod & smile back– Our secret knowing: Core is community Core is complex Core is connection.

A school board is a very important part of the school district. The member of the school board can be elected or appointed and they have many keys jobs that make them so important. Some of these jobs include making sure each child has the best education possible, think about the community’s viewpoint, and keeping the budget as close to the given amount as they can. When I first learned we had to attend a school board meeting as one of the assignments for this class, I wasn’t too thrilled, just because many meetings go over the same thing and it would be a bit of a hassle to go there. At this point, before going to the meeting, I was still in the point of view when I was in high school, but I soon realized that as a future teacher I should care…
