If you were to walk into the public school system in today’s society, you would probably become concerned looking at what each individual child was wearing. Unless you are in a private school system, a student is allowed to pick out what they wear on a daily bases, even if this out does not fit the dress code. Many students today feel as if their social status is defined by their clothing, and if they were told they had to wear a school uniform many would find a way to protest the issue, usually…

A controversial question in any society is the discussion on how primary goods should be distributed. Some cultures try to distribute goods as equally as possible while others adhere to the more harsh practice of bigger dogs eat first. Distributive justice itself is the concept of how primary goods – such as income and rights – are distributed within a given society and also takes into consideration if the distribution is fair. John Rawls, a prominent political philosopher from the late 1900’s,…

For many years now there has been a pretty heated argument concerning prayers in public schools. Majority of the people that go to public schools believe that prayer should not be allowed in the school because It is against their beliefs.

I observed two of Mrs. Moening’s 7th grade math classes at St. Mike’s school in Findlay. Many aspects of the private school contradicted the atmosphere of a public school. In particular, Mrs. Moening’s classroom had more bible verses and inspirational quotes on the walls than math references. As the students came into the classroom, I noticed their attire was very different from a public school. Every student wore uniforms that consisted of a polo with khaki shorts, pants, or a plaid skirt.…

Battleground Academy in Brentwood TN, nestled behind the I-65 gated in with fences and over a slight creek. The school is a Pre-K to 12 private school with to separate…
