The School Should Be A School Wide Assembly

There are five stages to help implement a school-wide change. The first is “becoming informed” and this is the stage that centers on research and information gathering. The goal of the principal is to educate him/herself as much as possible so that he/she can better understand the benefits, concerns, and effectiveness of trying a new program in the building. This is also when any testing or screening would need to happen so that the principal can get a clearer picture of the needs within the school based on the current student population. The second stage is “building support” which is just as the name suggests. The goal of the administrator is to build support for the new changes and to have faculty buy-in so that teachers and staff members are motivated to make the change. Furthermore, this is a key time for the administrator to act as a leader and model so that he/she may inspire others to act and make positive choices in regards to the program. The next phase is “creating an action plan” which is usually with a small group of people hand selected by the administration. This group figures out the nuts and bolts of bringing the change into the school by looking at the schools readiness for such a program, funding, and gaining commitment from the staff. Also during this time, the administrator is setting goals, problem-solving, and finding ways to delegate and support those working on the plan. The fourth phase is “implementing the plan” and may seem like a time

The lockdown was very unexpected. Students had originally thought that the lockdown was just another drill. Administration made sure that each and every student

I am Hayley Romero. I attend Anna L. Klein school. I am 13 years old, and have big dreams. I was born in North Bergen, New Jersey. I am Ecuadorian, and I am proud. I am the only child, but I have a dog named Snoopy. I believe that I am an excellent student for County Prep High School. It would be a great opportunity for me and it is something that I am very excited to be a part of. I am a very sterling student and work very hard in school. I care a lot about my grades and continuously find areas where I can improve. I feel that being a part of County Prep High School would be a great jump-start to my future. I love to learn and always strive to improve myself. I always take pride in my schoolwork and work hard.

Participating in student council has impacted my life extremely. Running in seventh grade was the best spur impulse decision I have made. I wasn't certain I wanted to run because of previous losses in fifth and sixth grade and how heavyhearted those losses made me. I'm so glad I ended up running. I got interested in student council in fourth grade when I was my closest friends campaign manager when she had run, which kind of sounds frivolous in fourth grade. Even though I was pretty bashful and reserved as a little kid, once I got in middle school, I was ready to finally take a vast step into becoming myself, which for me was being in the student council.

If they move and have to go to a new school, make new friends ect. As a parent or teacher you can comfort them and let them get used to where they are and not feel nervous or scared about being somewhere new and unfamiliar and help them to make friends, by asking them to join in activities, join an after school club or an out of school club where they will meet new people and get to know

The children after the traumatic massacre, probably would have to go through a very long healing process. A lot of the kids had the symptoms of PTSD which stands for post-traumatic stress disorder. Some kids never wanted to go back to school and others sometimes heard noises that triggered thoughts of the shooting. “But no one could erase those students’ memories.” A few of the students had siblings that had died, and they did not. “Many struggled to understand why their sisters or brothers had been taken away from them.” This shooting massacre didn't only affect the kids, it also affected America. A ton of the nation was in heartbreak after this event, they were traumatized. Many people were mourning for the 26 people who had lost their lives. Lots of people were scared of a “copycat” or someone that was inspired by Adam Lanza, to go and start another shooting spree. Many of the survivors also started showing symptoms of PTSD just like the kids. The parents had lost their kids, their family. Families have been broken because of what happened that day. They experienced something they never thought would happen to them. A lot of the parents at the school and even around the United States were scared for their school safety. A lot of parents wanted cameras, locks, and the kids to be protected. They wanted to drop their kid off at school and know that they will be able to see them

Memory is a very important part in this very popular event. Knowing what to do in this type of situation is very significant. When an unfamiliar person comes into a school or building the staff and teachers should be aware as to what to do and how to handle it. The teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary School knew exactly what to do and they handled it in a very calm manner. It is important when you

The school staffs had a huge meeting which involved support for the people who got killed and they talked about what must be done differently to prevent shootings to ever take place again in the school. After this took place, the rules were stricter. Students could not bring minor items to school such as a nail clipper because that would result into the student getting suspended. If the rules at school were broken at all, students would face profound consequences. Everything that happened on this day, to the teachers, and to the kids changed the way people acted around the school.

Type of Task Group - The type of task group I decided to observe is the Hampton City School Board Meeting.

The meeting started at 7:00 p.m. and lasted about 45 minutes. The bored member were five fourth females and two males. Lakota School District Board of Education meetings are held twice a month on the second and the fourth on Monday of each month.

Take a second to remember your last Thanksgiving break of high school, senior year and midterms are coming up soon. Tuesday, November 22, 2016 is a day I will never forget, only two days before the day that was dedicated to being thankful for everything in your life. On this day one of my very best friends was taken from me. Though this tragic event created a huge obstacle for many of us, we knew that we needed to get through it together as a school and most importantly as a community. Many of the students and faculty in my school were very close to her and for some, this was a time that classes were being missed and that their grades were dropping due to not being able to take the stress. Administration soon realized

I rush to one officer who I tell everything I know about the shooting and what is going on inside the school. Luckily all parents were called as soon as the shooting began so I sprint to the back parking lot in order to find my mom. I spot her car hurry over and jump in, without a word being said she pulls out of the parking space and gets us home as soon as possible. I tell the whole story over again but desperately try to forget what happened that day. The reports were listed everywhere the next morning, I saw it on the news, in the paper, and even during commercial breaks. The seniors ended up killing 15 of my teachers and classmates along with injuring 24 others. If I could go back in history, April 20, 1999 would most definitely be a day I fake a fever and skip

Step 7: The first action that the school needs to take is to talk to the upset parents and

On Monday,October 14, 2013 at 7:00 P.M., I attended the Bradford Area School District school board meeting at Floyd C. Fretz Middle School in the large group instruction room. This meeting was important for the teachers, students, and the schools in the district. It provided information that correlated to the material in class and a perspective on what situations as a future teacher I may experience.

a) What action, if any, should have been taken by the school administration when the local teachers’ association publicly criticized the administration and the school board?
