Hundred Schools of Thought

issued an unexpected and judicious message: “Schools need a complete transformation in what and how students learn.” Not soon after, Brady speaks discusses the flawed exercise of standardized testing and claims, “Using the scores on standardized tests to shape the life chances of kids, determine the pay and reputations of teachers, gauge the quality of school administrators, establish the worth of neighborhood schools, or as an excuse to hand public schools over to private, profit-taking…

One day, Amelia came home from school happy as ever. Amelia is known to always be happy and positive. She is rarely mad or upset and is a very intelligent girl. She has brown curly hair and her curls are the perfect curls that fall just right. Amelia has the perfect figure not short, but no too tall and she is skinny, but not too skinny. Amelia has the soft voice that couldn’t scare anything, not even a mouse. She was smiling from ear to ear when she came running up the steps to her house and…

Coming in to senior year, I thought it would last a life time. In the blink of an eye, I was already ¾ of the way through the year not knowing what had happened. I was always told that it goes by fast and I didn’t believe anyone when they said that. But I'm here to tell you that it is one hundred percent true. When I was young, I didn’t have a care in the world. I looked at all my older cousins thinking, "I'm never going to get that old." They were so much older than I was, and I never realized…

A long time ago in a high school far, far away there lived an ordinary boy named Brian, he went to an ordinary school had ordinary friends and overall lived an ordinary life in the ordinary small town of TOWN. He had only a few friends and spent most of his free time with his dog playing video games in his mom’s basement. So yea he was kinda an enormous looser. That was pretty much his lifestyle until one day all of that changed and he went down in the books as the most heroic being to ever live…

Physiology and Kinesiology I will also have a minor in business. After both are finished I will continue my education with graduate school. I find that helping someone, especially children, in any way I can to be truly fulfilling.

As second option I always have found Physical Training to be a rewarding field. Personally I have been…

life in Canada today, everyday activities and the rights of specifically teens were immensely different and strict. Examples of certain things I would find challenging are transportation, jobs and the rights of females. The ways of transportation a hundred years ago are similar to some of the ways we have today but, in many ways the variety we have now is faster than back then. Car were just being introduced at that time meanwhile nowadays we’re introducing self-driving cars. People my age would…

use periods, units, and showing my work were my three biggest issues during the duration of high school and middle school. My teachers would say things like, you would have got a hundred but you do not have any periods. Or, you had all the right answers, but you did not show any of your work. As a student back then, I always felt as long as I could obtain the correct answers, and express my thoughts clearly, I did not need to have these three things. However, a failure to use these three simple…

Racism continues to slither through the minds of millions. The public and media only fuel biased opinions of a certain people to think a certain way. There may never be a world where every person can accept each other; however, there could be a world where human beings can treat each other with…

help you do well in school or distinguish the real important things from the not so important things. My summer of sophomore year I tore my ACL during a game for my club team. I, being this stubborn sixteen year old teenager thought I would recover from the injury quick and be that “stud” from freshman year but turned out way different than I planned.

One can start at the beginning of Martin’s famous I Have A Dream speech and recognize the cognizance of the reoccurring subjection to a then thought of superior race’s despotism. Martin Luther King Jr. stated that “But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly…
