Seminole State High School Case Study

Gulf Shores Middle School- On January 13th, the students of Coach Cobb’s eighth grade classes did an experiment to see how far a barbie doll would drop based on the amount of rubber bands placed on its legs. The students were to bring barbies in, the Coach Cobb gave every group of students a barbie doll to use. Then the students were to tie a rubber band around its legs to keep them still, then tie more around that until there was a group of bands from two to six. After that the students were to put the last band on a ruler and drop the barbie, in the same way every time, off of their desks to see how far in meters the barbie would fall. Then on the next day the students dropped one barbie off of a (FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENS)

Ridgeway Junior High School faculty and staff alongside some parents of students of Ridgeway find themselves in the throws of a heated debate against other parents on the permissibility of providing students attending this junior high with contraception through the school. Ridgeway Junior High is a low income school located in Maryland, where black, latino and other students of color are in majority. In many recent years, Ridgeway has seen the increase of teen pregnancies, last year alone there was a district record high of 25 pregnant girls, which didn’t include students who didn’t report because they for example, secretly had an abortion. Franklin Junior High which is just outside of Lincoln Heights, where Ridgeway is located, is predominantly middle class white families and sees much lower instances of teenage pregnancy without having to provide contraception at school. The health class at Ridgeway is not that comprehensive, abstinence is preached, but not extensively, it warns of the dangers of teenage pregnancy and STDs,

1. ) With new technology such as Satellites scanning the surface of the earth, cartographers can use geographic information science or (GIS) to help them make more detailed and accurate maps. This has allowed scientists to get very precise and complex information from all of the data coming from the satellite orbiting around the earth at all different distances and angles. Another use for all of the Satellites is remote sensing, this allows satellite images to be scanned in thin lines any time a satellite could scan a small area or a pixel. With this we can look at very small features of earth from space and removals send it back down to earth for Analysis. A scientist can use this tech for making very accurate maps about features such as population

The incident at Chattooga High school is an example of censorship because due to personal bias, a decision is being made to exclude something. However, the principle was well within his rights to remove these photographs because while the second amendment applies in a public school setting, courts have permitted limitations decided by school officials. In my opinion, the choice to remove these photographs, while lawful, is not just because an implication is not enough to go off of to make a choice. In this situation I would create a petition, garnering as many signatures I could from students and teachers alike to reinstate these

County Prep high school has always had my interest. With all it has to offer, I’ve decided to make it my high school of choice for several reasons. There are things like the extracurricular activities they offer, the amount of AP courses they have. They are also offering vocational programs and LEAP courses. County Prep gives me the resources I will need to

The school's sole appeal is that it is the "#1 traditional middle school in the state of Florida". Or, it was in my case. A lot of students got in automatically because they had attended Sunset Elementary, completely erasing the notion that it is a competitive school (to my knowledge this is no longer an issue, but it was when I was attending). The school, while it is #1, is only considered good because schools in Miami-Dade just generally suck. Students go to Carver believing it is an opportunity to learn more, from the best teachers the district has to offer. This is simply not the case, as, like every other school, is controlled by the district and is consequently focused on test-taking rather than learning. Again, like every other school.

Cedar Falls High School will say goodbye to two outstanding teachers at the end of the 2014 -2015 school year. Family Consumer Science teacher Linda Schutte and science and engineering teacher Ron Hoofnagle are both moving on to pursue different interests in the coming year.

It is with great pleasure that I nominate Kristen Jaccodine to be considered for the Governor’s Award for 2015-16.

At Jayhawkville Central High School I noticed that the school showcased different circuits of communicating that is affecting the overall dynamic of the school. At Jayhawkville Central High School the Principal, is a strong leader and direct when he communicates, but is reluctant to implement ideas or suggestions from his building staff. The Principal has also alienated the staff, and showcases strict rules, but the staff is usually unclear about his expectations, and afraid to ask questions. With the Principals leadership style, there’s a clear disconnect among staff members which has interrupted the effectiveness of the curriculum being taught in the classrooms. The assistant principals at the school are also driven by different entities.

Considering the pros and cons of the overall cost of attendance, courses offered and all around atmosphere are important for high school juniors and seniors when trying to decide on which type of post secondary schooling to attend after they graduate. The choice is never easy, but looking into each and every one of the factors that a two year or four year college have can help narrow down a student’s idea of the place that is best suited for

I believe Mrs. Kvalo has done a magnificent job as the principal of Portage High School. Mrs. Kvalo balances the complexities of the job with great easy and does so with the assistance of a strong support staff. She is always positive or upbeat in her interactions with others and never has a negative thing to say publicly about our school or community. Additionally, Mrs. Kvalo is a highly visible leader and her presence at all school events is important to students and staff. The principal is often the leader of these rituals and they reaffirm the values of the school through what they attend to (Deal & Peterson, 1994, p. 30).

Two weeks ago, we had a short conversation about what is the process of getting n the nursing program at FAU, and what I suppose to do to get financial support for the school fees. And how much the four years program will cost. I have financial aid at Broward College, pretty soon they are going to kick me out, because I have bunch of credit.

Imagine the chaos that could come from students being able to write about whatever they want in the school newspaper. Things that could hurt other people's feelings by writing about them or creating stories that bring students to argue about their opinions. Students should be limited on what they can say in a school newspaper because it invades people's privacy, creates conflict, and affects kids education.

Eastampton Community School is a kindergarten through 8th grade one building school with just about 600 students. We have a new Assistant Principal and our former Assistant Principal became the Superintendent. Most Administration duties are shared among the Superintendent/Principal and the Assistant Principal. The Supervisors frequently collaborate to maintain consistency across the board.

Choosing a college or university normally begins with the, “do they offer what I want to study” question and then somehow leads to the tuition costs to attend that college or university. More students have been researching and deciding to attend out-of-state universities and colleges because of the different programs that are offered. The only issue with attending an out-of-state university is that the costs for total tuition and board is about quadruple the price compared to universities or colleges in-state tuition (Baum, Ma, 3). That cost puts a huge burden on the student and sometimes crushes their dreams of attending that college or university.
