Connecticut needs to enact a fair and evenhanded school funding system in order to assure fairness among all students in every school district. (Talk about funding among all states.

meat on my bones, so I did. Around my 8th grade year summer, before entering high school, my whole body changed. I’m not sure if it was me finally reaching adolescence, but I sure did change my eating habits. I finally started to gain some weight, but my body was still in shape because I have always been an athlete. I have been playing soccer for as long as I could remember and it always kept me fit. Throughout my high school years, I remained lean and tall, but I was eating a lot. Senior year,…

Throughout this article Moore uses pathos, ethos, and logos to help build on his claims about the American school system and the education level of the country. Most of Moore’s article was pathos, but there were some ethos and logos. The terms pathos, ethos, and logos are Greek terms people…

One of the reasons I am most excited about becoming a high school agricultural science teacher is the opportunity that is available to influence students’ lives. I did not realize how much of an impact all of my teachers had on me until I began school at Texas A&M Whether it was good or bad, they helped me become the person I am today. I will forever be grateful for the lessons they taught me, and for their influence on my career choice. My results for the Texas Genuine Assessment were a…

School uniforms are not universally utilized throughout the world. In fact, across the globe people of color are significantly more likely to attend a school that mandates uniforms. Given this, one might postulate that communities of color value school uniforms and therefore, utilize them more often. This paper will suggest that this is not the case and demonstrate the role that colonialism and systemic oppression play in the widespread use of uniforms on students of color. This is increasingly…
