How The School Operated With Its Attendance Policy

That night my parents forgot her outside in the backyard. But I remembered her. I went downstairs, let her in, and gave her some leftover turkey from earlier that night. We both went upstairs and with her literally on top of me, keeping me warm, her slicked back fur and a smile on her little puppy-dog face, we fell asleep, bringing the most perfect day to an

Australia is the biggest exporter of live animals in the world. I believe that the practice is not just unethical but completely pointless. Over a million live animals are exported out of Australia and into a life of cruelty and ---. But it is not just the conditions overseas that are unacceptable. The transportation is overcrowded and dangerous, and the whole thing is of very little value to the economy. Here are my reasons why.

In the government boarding schools, the American Indian children were children were not treated well. They were not feed with good meals that were having the nutrients that they needed for their good health and physical wellbeing. In addition to that they were treated in a military style. If one students did something “wrong” they were given hard punishment that were sometime harming them physically and mentally. In the afternoon, their classes were on vocational training classes. One could imaging the trauma a child who is subjected to those harmful treatments can have in his/her life.

The morning was foggy and I could see the front of my school through my window. It was a nice sight to see. I walked into the kitchen to make myself a bowl of cereal and there she was with her head down on the table. I could tell that she arrived a couple of hours ago because the tears hadn’t dried from her cheeks yet. I got myself ready gave her a kiss on her forehead and headed off to school. I had walked into class eager to see what my teacher Mrs. Padron had in store for today. Every single day there was something new to learn and there’s something about that infinite nature of learning that really appealed to me as a child. I cherished those 7 hours I spent in class the most I could and I dreaded the mere thought of having to go home where I would have to face the

In 2015, the pharmaceutical industry spent over 27 billion dollars on advertising. The two greatest components of this effort were promotional advertising and free medication sampling, which the pharmaceuticals invested 15.5 and 5.7 billion dollars respectively (“Persuading the Prescribers”). Promotional advertising involves direct contact with health professionals, the most common being extravagant lunch conferences held for physicians and their staff. On the other hand, sampling involves distributing free sample of medications to physicians, who then have a choice of providing these samples to patients. As a result of these methods, the industry has seen revenue around $400 billion with 90% of physicians having a relationship with a drug company (Campbell 2007). Moreover, the prices of prescriptions continue to rise; a copay of a generic drug is $11.72, preferred brand drug is $36.37 and a specialty drug is $58.37 (Coleman and Geneson 2014). Although the profits are immense in the numbers demonstrated above, it is no surprise when pharmaceutical drug companies elevate their prices even more. For instance, recently Turing Pharmaceuticals raised the price of their medication Daraprim from $13.50 to $750. Keep in mind, this medication is used for threatening parasitic infections, aids, and cancer with alternative options currently found to be inefficient (Pollack 2015). Another example of this practice involves cycloserine, a drug used to

I have been notified by your team leader, Barb, that you were not at work today and that you did not notify her. It was not until she contacted you that she found out that you were not coming into work today.

You’ve reached the classroom now, the right one, you’re sure, but there’s already people inside and you’re early, so you lean against a wall and wait. You keep your mind perfectly blank as you watch the students, now your peers, go by. You notice the rock in your shoe again, and you contemplate it’s and then your very own existence for a while, very heavy but not unpleasant before class thoughts.

I open the door to the school hallway. Inside I hear the chatter of many students at once. There were dozens of people in the area, and I was slightly overwhelmed. This place I have entered is what I wold come to know as Quest Middle School, one of the most stressful, but interesting two years I have had in a long time.

My evaluation of the room’s style, was interrupted by a BLASTING surprise: there were 40 energic students amid one substitute teacher: me. A few, but not all, of the students’ hormones ran faster than a New York City freight train.

To my surprise, my brash behavior changed the conversation. I had their attention. The administration responded that there could be an alternative. For this option to work, I would have to sacrifice my free time to instead dedicate myself to school and to follow a strict academic plan. I fought for this second chance and seized it as quickly as I could. At that moment, I learned the value of self-advocacy. It would be my light guiding me out of the deep hole of failure and self-doubt I had created. It was my way to move

On September 1, 2012, I walked into my fifth grade teacher’s classroom for the first time in my life. Mrs.Cullen was standing in the front of the door with open arms ready to welcome her new fifth grade students. As I made my way to my desk and sat down next to Charlie Schutt and Quin Timmerman, I got the feeling that middle school would be a time of talking to some of my best friends and cruising through classes. As the school year progressed, and classroom seats changed, my thought of how Middle school would be changed as well. On the first day Mrs.Cullen explained our schedule, Homework detentions, and demerits. After about fifty questions, she sent us off to our first class, and the first step of our Middle School journey. The fifth grade

Having a three day weekend and more time to learn is a huge win win, and with the extended school day that could happen. The extended school day is a controversial issue that has been argued over for awhile. Whether or not we should increase the length of the school day itself and give students a three day weekend or just keep the school days normal. Schools should definitely increase the length of the school day and give students more down time and freedom by giving them a three day weekend, more quality time with teachers in school and dramatically help the struggling students.

One day there was a little girl named Fran Bow. She had a happy life with her parents and Aunt Alice, an almost happy life. Fran Bow didn’t have any friends so one day her parents bought her a cat. She named him Mr. Midnight, she loved how his fur was so soft and black, Fran Bow finally had a friend.

Indifference filled the air on this, the most average of fourth grade Thursday afternoons. So unbearably ordinary. When the dismissal bell rang, I leapt out of my seat, not bothering to close my backpack, and out of Ms. Jones’ classroom. The warm May air met my face like that of a blowdryer on the highest heat setting.

Prior to effectively creating the accounting portion of a business plan using a selection of accounting principles, tools, and calculations, it is important to first address some fundamental information about my business venture. As someone who has spent years baking and providing friends and family with flavorful, affordable cupcakes for birthday parties and other events, it makes sense to look into the possibility of opening up my own business that specializes in gourmet cupcakes, a former niche that has become a booming business over the last decade. Wanting to provide people with unique desserts that are not only delicious, but also affordable, has always been a dream of mine. My bakery would specialize in strictly cupcakes, as too
