The purpose of this instrumental case study is to identify factors contributing to consistently high test scores for third through twelfth grade students at Xavier Charter School in Twin Falls, Idaho. At this stage in the research, the high test scores will be generally defined as 85% of students meeting or exceeding established state performance standards.

due to test anxiety. Students also experience levels of discomfort in their preparation of their exam and during their exam. All these emotions hinders the students’ performance. Test anxiety is defined as the emotional, physiological, and behavioral responses surrounding the potential consequences of negative evaluation on an upcoming test or exam (von der Embse, Barterian, and Segool, 2013). It has been estimated that between 10-40 percent of all students suffer from various levels of test…

Integrity is considered to be the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness. Wistfully, 59% of high school students admitted cheating on a test during the last year. Such impressive information contributes to the fact that now a days children don’t respect life. In this society were teachers try to do their best in educating the future of our country, it is at home were the big problem starts. Reluctantly, such integral values must be portrayed by society as…

America's standard of public education has fallen into a deep decline over the last decade. School should be better constructed to teach kids how to prepare for adult life and the real world. Many of the things taught today in school have little to no value to students after they graduate. Curriculum should involve very crucial life skills such as people skills, critical thinking, and financial management. Our Education System barely does anything to cater to those needs, which sets kids up for…

extremely unfair and is not accurate at all, the test subjects students to a useless and ultimately harmful test for no reason at all. It is inaccurate in the sense that the test in one subject is taken over the course of a day. Depending on factors often outside of the student’s control, the child cannot be held totally responsible for the resulting score. Standardized testing causes extreme, unnecessary stress on not only the students taking the test, but the teacher as well. It…

immediately dismisses Dr. Basich’s plan because the council does not involve itself in instructional decisions. Ms. Shipman does not seem concerned with the fact that over half of the student population is failing to make an acceptable score on the state test. In fact, she feels teachers should not be blamed for poor performances because the students who are failing all come from economically disadvantaged families. Dr. Basich learns from a member of the HSC that none of the…

Other people on the other hand, may say that academic culture does not affect how people view people and the world. In the essay, “An Indian Father’s Plea”, an Indian student's father is writing a letter to his son’s teacher about the extent of his son’s education. Among many other points, his father shows the teacher how much his son has learned over the years despite his lack of a “traditional education”. His Father goes on the state that, “He is a full basket coming into a different…

up why you ask yourself as you fill in the last bubble on tour test. Then you get to thinking should students take these tests. But then you realized you were thinking out loud and somebody says no we should not. Then you get in trouble so the teacher tells you when we get back from winter break you going to write a paper because you got in trouble. So you think about your three reasons that students should not have to take the test and they are, It takes up teachers teaching time, students…
