Nothing But The Truth

Philip is never really clear on his facts. He never tells his parents the real reason he isn’t going out for track. He completely lied when he said no one really even like Ms. Narwin. Ms. Narwin was also never out to get him, yet that’s what he told several people. Most importantly though, he never made it clear weather he was singing or humming the National Anthem. If he would have just made it clear that he was humming in the first place, patriotism might not have been such assumed intention. On page 35, 46, and 50-54, you see these deceptions.

This caused the situation to get out of hand and created the main conflict in the book. Mr.Lunser asked Phillip when the Star Spangled Banner was being played, “You want to sing?” and he responded, “No” (page 150). This proves that he was lying because he said to Miss Narwin, “I was being patriotic.” (page 60). If you only hum the star spangled banner during a class with a teacher you can't stand and nowhere else than you are not patriotic. This shows that he became a dynamic character after he got what he wanted. Philip stated, “I don't know the words.” (page 177). This proved that he was lying because he told his parents that Miss narwin would not let him sing the national anthem. Then, they called reporters and made the news get out which caused a lot of character vs character conflict. He also lied to reporters that he likes to sing along, but we know this is not true because he doesn't know the words so he can't sing along. This makes him a static character because he did not change his ways of

In the holding, there was not an intention to cast no ill reflection on the assistant principal, for the record raises no doubt that his motive throughout was to eliminate drugs from his school and protect students from what Jordan Romero had gone

Philip should get suspended“This is your second time this week. Talk about rules, you’re talking suspension.” Pg. 75. “The rule. Two infractions in one week.”“Breaking a rule twice in one week after he’d been warned once.”

Fred Doyle, a licensed educator, taught for Mount Healthy City Schools from 1966 to 1971. Fred Doyle was an educator that had numerous altercations with faculty and students while teaching for Mount Healthy City Schools. The altercations included verbal arguments resulting in Doyle being assaulted, verbally referring to students with offensive language, making indecent gestures to students, and sharing a dress code memo cited from Doyle’s administrator on an on-air radio station. Soon after the on-air radio news, Doyle learned that the Board approved the Superintendent of Mount Healthy City Schools recommendation of not renewing his teaching contract. The explanation was due to the “ lack of tact in handling professional matters” in reference to the indecent gestures and the on-air radio show incidents. Doyle brought suit to the Mount Healthy City Board of Education to be rehired and granted punitive damages due to the violation of his rights under the First and Fourteenth Amendments.

Sir Philip appears to be completely devoid not only of puritanical principles, but also Christian principles. When his ploy to free Magawisca in order to be liberated from Rosa is devastated, getting attacked by the prisoner, Morton, and then being rescued by Magawisca and the jailer, Barnaby Tuttle, Sir Philip becomes painfully aware of his falsity. He realizes, by comparing himself to Barnaby, that "genuine goodness ... rings true at every trial; while hypocrisy, though it show a face fair and bright, yet, like a new false coin, betrays at every scratch the base metal" (261). While the goodness of people such as Barnaby, Magawisca, and Hope will remain unfailing

After the S.S. Hato sunk Philip gets rescued by a black man, and they are lost at sea. Philip responds with immaturity as demonstrated when Timothy was saving water for their long journey and Philip wanted more so he started complaining and dislikes Timothy (Taylor 35-36). Philip was acting very foolish, but the trait is forming. Timothy claims to see an island, then in a rush of excitement Philip falls off the raft into the shark infested water. Only because he was standing up and Timothy had told him to crawl only, so he wouldn’t fall (Taylor 52-53). This shows how foolish Philip was being and Timothy had to risk his life once again for Philip. In chapter 12 of the novel Philip shows maturity and the trait has completely evolved. Timothy gets Malaria and Philip has to take care of him and feed him, while Timothy is completely immobile, until Timothy runs and sinks into the water and Philip saves him (Taylor

The first reason that demonstrates that John and Lorraine are not to blame is that they are Mr. Pignati’s friends and they try to help him. On page

For my third reason for Philips suspension was that the decision had a fair outcome. First of all Philip had the fair advantage of choosing his suspension. As doctor Palleni quoted “First things first an apology.” Phillip had disregarded that statement and replayed “Call her” referring to his mom. But because Philip had a deep hate for Miss Narwin and what she teaches, he insisted that he gets the suspension, this was his choice.

FACTS: Nine named appellees, each of whom alleged that he or she had been suspended from the public high school in Columbus for up to 10 days without a hearing. Dwight Lopez was one of the nine students who were suspended for 10 days for misconduct at a public school in Ohio. Lopez filed a suit that Principal Goss violated their Due Process rights by not having a hearing for their suspensions. Ohio Law empowers the principal of an Ohio public school to suspend a pupil for misconduct for up to 10 days or to expel him or her. However, the principal must notify the student’s parents within 24 hours

Throughout the beginning of the novel Philip was very prejudiced and disrespectful towards Timothy. As shown in chapter nine when he stated “ I tried again, but it didn’t work. I stood up, threw the palm fibers at him, and screamed, “You ugly black man! I won’t do it! You’re stupid, you can’t even spell” (Taylor 70-71). Although Phillip was once disrespectful towards Timothy he later appreciates him, “ With his great back to the storm, taking its full punishment, he made it possible for me to live” (Taylor 114). Another example of his gratitude towards Timothy is, “ But now, for the first time, I fully understand why Timothy had so carefully trained me to move around the island, and reef” (Taylor 115). These quotes from Phillip introduce a new admiration of Timothy that was not present in the beginning of the

Artists often paint as a way to make money on the side or as an enjoyable activity on a rainy day. However, artists like Kendra Baird use it for a much more powerful purpose. Baird states, ¨Each painting has a personal meaning to me. Sometimes it's obvious; sometimes it's buried within what simple elements represent to me. My subjects can be as simple as a few birds perched on a tree branch, or as complex as a woman losing her identity in the struggles of life.¨ Many of us, throughout our lives, blindly follow those in front of us--never stopping to think about those around or behind us, or experiences that have led us to the point in our lives where we stand now. This painting entitled, “Offering Truth”, by Kendra Baird illustrates the feeling

Philip's character itself is a critical as his personality and characteristics convey, not only himself, but also his empire to others. It is believed by some historians that Philip was a far poorer leader than his father, Charles I, who had reigned before him. Philip grew up to be an outsider and carried this flaw with him into leadership. He never fully trusted anyone and so was incapable

Principal Grandey is partly to blame as he is shown to be oblivious and close minded and lacks empathy of others especially to the students. “Did you talk to him? No I sent him away… because he didn’t knock Miss Johnson,” Louanne’s conversation with Principal Grandey after Emilio disappears. It clearly appears that Principal Grandey did not recognise Emilio’s desperation for help as he simply dismisses him without a second thought because he failed to knock on his door. Although Principal Grandey contributed to the death of Emilio, he is not responsible for Emilio’s actions and choices as he did not pull the

Palleni had the least to blame but he did do some things to effect the story. The first time Philip came in he gave him a warning. He told Philip to listen, respect, and apologize to Miss Narwin. Philip chose not to listen to Dr. Palleni and kept humming in her class. Dr Palleni said, “Then Philip, I'm prepared to call one of your parents to come get you and take you home. You`ll be out for the rest of the day and… I could make it Monday and Tuesday but… How about just Monday?” (Wortis 76) . He suspended Philip for 2 days because Philip was a distraction and didn't listen to Miss Narwin or Dr. Palleni. He started the news story and all the press for the school. Dr. Palleni made a huge impact with giving Philip a warning and suspending him.
