Violence In The Classroom Community Analysis

It would be wrong to say violence ends when you turn the television off or act as if injustice didn’t exist anymore, but if you reflect back on 2016 so far, one of the biggest topics that often dominates the news and blogosphere concerned the high frequency of assaults on college campuses around the country. In the place where many young adults begin to learn who they are and who they want to be while enjoying a comfortable freedom and safety among their peers discovered freedom and safety could not always be guaranteed.

Geoffrey Canada pens a book that is part biography, part social view, a very thoughtful look into inner-city violence and the rules surrounding it. The book describes how his personal history with violence influenced his work with youth and the programs that he has started to support them. Geoffrey Canada describes the progression of violence that had happened in his lifetime. He also points out that there is a disturbing difference between what the streets were like in the 1960s compared to those of today.

School shootings and those who instigate them have changed over time by the perspectives of these people that are influenced by violence. Couples of years ago, school shooters were kids that got traumatized, raped, bullied, etc. A perfect example of this would be Evan Ramsey. Evan walked into his high school with a 12- gauge shotgun and killed two people. He had a chaotic home life. His mother was an alcoholic who lived with a series of violent men. He lived in 10 different foster homes where he got both sexually and physically abused. I feel that Evan did this because of the tragic life or even for attention. His life wasn't a good life and it's sad that the events that occurred to him had to happen. Now things have changed and anyone can

Are you tired of having those dreadful and terrible flashbacks of your high school’s days of witnessing some sort of school violence or even being the victim from the violence? American schools all over today are becoming more of a fearful and miserable destination for children to attend and it is even becoming more of a destine nightmare for every teacher and parent as well due to an alarming rate of violent actions of multiple types of crimes being committed by students and consistently having chaotic events. Schools are meant for children to have the feeling of being safe, enjoyment, and allow them to receive an outstanding education that will lead them into the appropriate path for college and then soon lead those students to a brighter

As I sit in my living room with my family on a gloomy April day, news reports on the television continue to speak on the recent death of Freddie Gray, who died in police custody from spinal injury in Baltimore City. As unrest and riots ensued, my dad had asked“Are you still planning on attending Loyola University?” “Of course,” I said. I was more than willing to spend the next four years of my life attending Loyola in Baltimore City ; where I would have the resources to make an impact on the neighborhoods in Baltimore. After further researching violence and crime in Baltimore following the broadcast of the Freddie Gray case, I decided I would begin to address the issue of youth violence in Baltimore City. The days following Freddie Gray’s death,

Joining my school’s Associated Student Body (ASB) has allowed me to improve the environment and atmosphere at school while also giving myself a greater voice. As the recent class secretary and future class president, I am committed to enhancing the experiences of my peers in high school. In a school that is vastly underfunded and with many students living in poverty, it becomes hard for students to become spirited and support our fundraisers because of the mediocre quality of our school as well as simply being unable to afford things. My class and I are dedicated to ensuring that every student has the opportunity to make the most of their high school experience, regardless of their background. From selling frozen goods to reduce prom charges

In the Newspaper article, “Building a Safe Chicago” written by the Chicago Sun-Times, underlines the meaning of violence and describes how people in the community fell as they live in fear because of the violence caused in their neighborhoods. The article states, “What we do know is that several of our neighborhoods are and have been experiencing persistent and disproportionately high levels of violence. It ripples through families and communities and should be a matter of concern to every Chicago resident” (Chicago Sun-Times). These people live their lives with an unknown fear today. Everyday they question their safety as they live in the city. As this connects to schools, students should feel safe at school. The classroom is meant to be a safe environment where they can learn about the world as well as themselves. When school’s are attacked by shooters or even by bullies students shut down and become fearful of their education. The Sisters of Mercy live up to this concern as they work towards their goal of ending violence. They have hopes of keeping the world safe and finding ways to make the community a safer place to live. In conclusion, the Sun Times stand against violence in hopes that one day as a community we can end violence all

When teaching her students about activism, Cowhey helped her students host a vote registration drive to encourage individuals from the community to register to vote. Cowhey explains the importance of encouraging students to be active in their community. Cowhey shares that activism “helps children develop a sense of social justice, a sense of fairness and equity that begins with personal and community experiences and extends globally and historically” (103). After the students finished their vote registration drive, they took a bus to the registrar’s office at City Hall to deliver the vote registration cards.

“Public colleges not liable for violence on campus, appeals court rules”, written by Stephen Ceasar, discusses the responsibility campuses have when dealing with cases of violence that involve mental illness. A lawsuit in California, Katherine Rosen v. University of California Regents, ended with a ruling that public universities do not hold responsibility when dealing with crimes committed on campus when the assailant suffers from mental illness. In 2010, Katherine Rosen, a student at UCLA, was stabbed and had her throat slashed by Damon Thompson, a mentally ill student. Prior to the attack, UCLA professors and officials had received reports of threatening behavior of Damon Thompson and Thompson had been diagnosed as a possible schizophrenia

Community violence is an uncontrolled epidemic sweeping through America’s great nation, which negatively impacts urban youth. News reporters are consistently depicting new shooting’s in the historic urban streets of Chicago in which an interview is held with the presence of family and friend’s shaking with sorrow. As the cameras shut off and time slowly dwindles on the family and friend’s shrieks of sadness and anger is soon forgotten. A 2008 report conducted by the University of Chicago depicts 510-murdered Chicagoan’s in which 80 percent were killed by gun violence and about half are between 10 and 25 years old (). The numbers may seem small but imagine each young life a 10 to 25 year old can impact because those are the individuals to pick

The most recent shooting at the elementary school located in Newtown, Connecticut have shifted our focus on the question of whether or not we are doing enough to protect our students in our schools across the nation. Every morning, parents send their children to school every morning trusting that they will be returning home the same day, but as we all know that isnt always the case for some. The tragedies that have taken place show that we need to pay more attention and provide more resources in improving our school safety. I personally believe that all child have the right to education, therefore have the right to live and learn in a safe environment. Research has been shown that students perform at their best, and that productivity is shown to increase when they feel safe. School’s play an important role in ensuring students physical and emotional needs get met in a safe environment, however there are issues to this day that need to be faced and worked through by the union of a community of students, parents, teachers, and administrators. I call for a reform on the way we handle school safety procedures/policies and one reasonable approach is the role of preventing future school violence.

As a resident of Oak Cliff, the southern region of Dallas, I live amidst gangs and drug dealers. It is ordinary to hear gunshots at night, varying in quantity depending on the local gangs’ level of anger against one another. Sadly, many families live in fear of becoming collateral damage during gang wars. Although the police incarcerate many criminals, more people continue to join gangs, making an endless cycle. Primarily, the new members of the gangs and drug dealers are teenagers out of high school. To stop this continuation of immature violence, I hope high school students will attend college, finding value in joining the workforce and a sense of purpose in life.

Violence in American schools is dramatically increasing every day at an alarming rate. Whether it is a generic fistfight between students, or a horrific school shooting, we hear about some form of violence occurring in American schools nearly every day, including in our own local schools, such as my school, the Altoona Area Junior High School. This kind of behavior in our school, AAJHS, is obviously a major safety hazard. In an attempt to lessen this violence and protect students, principals should take action and begin conducting random locker searches to check for guns, knives, and any other weapons contributing to the excessive violence in our school. Taking this action would also help deter the selling and use of drugs and alcohol in our school, and it would also make students, parents, and teachers feel safer in our school.
