1995- 2007 Alternative High School for Tacoma School District. Oakland fell into the Alternative Ed Law program. Students worked at their own pace and speed to complete school. It generally graduated between 15-20 students a year. Several smaller programs existed within the school, such as Region 5, or ALC (Alternative Learning Center) program or Lincoln Tree Farm.
Region 5 were for student who were in transition from just being released from either Echo Glenn or Green hill youth jail facilities. They worked with a JRA representatives and would complete school work and prepare to reenter the comprehensive high school setting. They would have no contact with the remainder of the building and programs. This program ended during the 2007-2008

In 2007, the school had a change in leadership and had students have 2 periods per day. mourning class, and afternoon class. They would complete a semesters worth of work in 21 days then focus on 2 additional classes for another 21 days. So that at semester students would have completed 6 classes like the rest of the building. The only hiccup with this is attendance was so bad, if students missed more than 2 days it was equivalent to missing 3 weeks of school at the comprehensive setting. Students had to have homework logs documenting how many hours of homework they had completed. The next school year in 2008, the School went to a 3- period day, which worked much better. School always started later, at about 9am, which was the reason why Oakland fell under the ALE law, students did not meet the minimum requirements for attending a full day of school. There was only a population of approximately 8-9 teachers up until 2007 when new leadership came in and started to shift to the culture and structure for today.
Oakland did not start the accreditation process until 2007 school year. This was started because students were having difficulty with having their diplomas recognized as a high school diploma, student’s diplomas were not being recognized by the military, colleges, technical education programs. So, a shift began to become an accredited high school. In becoming an accredited

There are four primary sources of American law that “establish rights, duties, and privileges that are consistent with the values and beliefs of a society or its ruling group” (Miller, 2014). One of the oldest sources of primary law is the U.S. Constitution, which was ratified by delegates from 12 states on September 17, 1787 (The Constitution of the United States, 2015). The document has stood the test of time and been a model for many other nations with its emphasis on a strong government with maximum human freedom while avoiding tyranny (The Constitution of the United States, 2015). Since each state also has its own constitution, this would be in the same category as a primary source of American law. The second primary source of

The greatest legal document ever to be written is the United States Constitution. The constitution is ultimately a series of power compromises and is the foundation of common law. Merriam-Webster defines common law as " the area of law that has to do with the subject matter and with the interpretation and construction of constitutions or that deals with the nature and organization of government" (Constitutional Law). Cases involving constitutional law are heard by the United States Supreme Court where judgment is based on the U.S. Constitution. Of the various different articles seated in the constitution, three of them describe a system of checks and balances dividing the national

Which of the following statements concerning the severance of parties charged with a criminal offense is incorrect?
Traditionally, the positive image of a company or a brand is very important in the contemporary world. As a result, the question of morality of each individual working within an organization is of a paramount importance. In such a situation there should be no exceptions from the rule and executives could not be in a privileged position. This is the desirable ideal many companies strive to achieve at least in a public eye. However, the reality turns to be quite different from what is expected and the analyzed case of an executive’s double standard is just another evidence of the fact that the real life is so complicated that the common rules, including moral
A low income school in New Haven, Connecticut started the new year telling students they would be attending school until 4:15 P.M. four days a week. New Haven teachers in an unprecedented move allowed their teacher unions to take over the rewriting of their contracts. This provided the teacher with more freedom with curriculum and time management. Although the final outcome was beneficial the origins of the extended day was not welcomed.

The cost of tuition at colleges and universities in the United States has seen a steady increase over last several decades. Since the 1980s, the list price for tuition has risen by roughly 7% per year, while the inflation rate has averaged 3.2% per year. The effect of this mismatch in the rise of the cost of tuition versus the average inflation rate has had monumental effects on the ability of students to afford a higher education. This, in turn, has forced more students to take out increasingly large amounts of loans, causing for the national student loan debt to grow to over $1 trillion dollars, more than total credit card
Throughout the United States there are many different laws among the fifty states that make up this union. The laws are different throughout the states because of the need of the laws. Living in one state and not having the advantages or disadvantages of a law in another state would not be that unfair or unequal. This is true because if you don’t like a law in your state you could always fight it and try to change it or you could always move out of that state and go to one that has the laws that you like.
Everyone in America has to go to school at some point in their life. Most students in California attend school for 6 hours a day. In Adelanto,California students learn math,science language arts history, PE, and an elective during that time. Some students are struggling with this kind of schedule. I believe that students should not have an 8 hour school day to be successful.
