High-yielding variety

I believe that character building is imperative for students. Teaching students about positive traits and productive ways to deal with their problems promotes a safe, encouraging, constructive classroom, self-esteem, and better grades. I plan to teach Language Arts to middle-school aged students; anywhere from 6th to 9th grade. The middle-school years are an optimal time to urge good character as it is when kids are defining themselves. For the purpose of this paper, I will write as though I…

Mothers inspire children to achieve any goal placed on them; my mother is no exception. They are the foundation of the millions of children in the world, who look to find support in a being that we call, mom. Although the journey is not always perfect, I, like many other individuals, am forever grateful for the mother that raised me. When I was younger, I was bowlegged, my mother thought it was best to deal with the situation now, rather than live a difficult life full of ridicules and…

the success rates one of the apparent remedies, which is restorative justice. I would be able to predict the conclusion of an investigation by acquiring data from various high poverty, high crime schools and the students whom are targeted by zero-tolerance policies of four grade groups (pre-K, elementary school, middle school, high school) and a restorative justice program would applied. However, applied research would be more difficult to carryout due to the precision, and if one thing does not…

noticed many tour groups filled with high school juniors and seniors with their parents looking around campus to see if Marist is the school they are looking for. Scanning the crowds, I made eye contact with one particular mother, I smiled at her and she smiled back with a look of happiness, and excitement. She was on the long journey of finding the perfect school for her child. In that moment, I automatically thought back to the days as a jittery and excited high schooler diving head first into…

else. Unlike school, at home she explained in detail on what something is and why something is the way it is. Thanks to her help in my middle school years, my foundation for subjects like history and sciences were able to help me achieve high grades later in high school. Her strict rules taught me to be a better person, ranging from simple table rules to personal interactions. She was also my mentor in terms of sports. She encouraged me when I wanted to quit, and told me that I will never get…

It was a quiet, peaceful night. Five family members were happily sleeping. A little girl, around three or four, had a very strange dream about a robot lizard. It involved her dog, her brother and baby sister, and of course, a mechanical lizard. The next morning, as soon as the little girl got up, she wrote down what she remembered of the dream, and titled the printer-paper booklet 'Rodot Lizard '. This would be her first of many small, sloppy stories. If you look back at that story, it seems…

principal, he has made it very clear our school’s motto is “CPR” compassion, pride, and respect. Earl Warren Junior High School wants every student to leave our school knowing and applying those three qualities. Since we have our students only for a short period of time, it is important for those students to know that at Warren we want our campus to feel like a family. At Warren Junior High School, not only is the staff outside walking about the campus, but also the leaders of the campus both…

Eckhart Tolle once said, “...the past gives you an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, of fulfillment in whatever form.” This is a quote that really describes the life of Professor Charlotte McMath, an older woman with reddish - blonde hair and green eyes hidden behind a pair of round-framed glasses. Professor McMath is an Assistant Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science at Mississippi College (MC) in Clinton, MS and she’s also an advisor to many students who plan on…

I continued to play basketball all through middle school our team overall was a pretty good team we only lost a few of ours games during both years. When high school started that’s when the tables really turned for the sport when I thought they took it really serious in middle school then you wouldn’t believe how serious they made it seem in high school. The coaches were really hard on us we had to maintain our grades and they made sure we behaved in the classroom too. It wasn’t only that, talk…

money effecting the type of education received. Growing up every kid went to a public school received the same education and that cycle repeated all the way through high school graduation. The only thing I can relate to Anyon’s findings would be kids going to a higher end college because their parents can afford it. But even then these high end schools in my opinion just offer a more known name and higher prices, they are never anything that you can’t just teach yourself or go to a community…
