Why Kids Should Not Be Allowed In High School

One day during algebra we were learning a new and difficult way to solve an algebra problem. I didn’t know how to do the homework, so I used the internet to teach myself,the website went through step-by-step and taught me and I was able to finish and get all the right answers on my homework. Technology can be a huge positive to someone's learning experience. Every student should be allowed to have a device in the classroom because it allows faster information, different teaching techniques, and teaches you how to find the right information out of many answers .

Every year, thousands of people move to the United States from all over the world to play sports. According to the district they threatened to flunk sports down because they were rolling to cause financial problems and it would cut the cost of equipment. Therefore, schools should not have sports because they can cause district's financial problems, academic failures and students will not have the proper rooms to teach.

Hello, My name is Sarah and I am writing to you regarding the new policy that is being adopted. The one about "Students who do not have a B average or above, can no longer participate in after school activities including any clubs or sports."

When children receive participation trophies they are praised for their efforts rather than the work towards their mistakes. Children will not be fully prepared for the future by allowing them to receive trophies, the children begin to think that all they have to do for a reward is to show up and not put any effort. For example, “In college, those who’ve grown up receiving endless awards do the requisite work, but don’t see the need to do it well” (NY Times). These college kids have many trophies and they received them mainly for being in the activity or club that they participated in. The effect of all the trophies given were that the college students do not complete their assignment and job to the fullest. They stay at a level where it is

Doctors in training call it "pimping." A medical student or junior resident is abruptly put on the spot, sometimes during patient rounds, as an instructor fires off difficult questions about anatomy, diagnostic protocols, or surgical procedures.[1] The practice is defended in pretty much the same way that other forms of

PCMS students should not get homework. All school kids do not have a parent at their house to help them finish the assignment because the parent has to take care of the baby. Sixty five percent through seventy five percent of many school students qualify for free lunch which means kids do not have a lot of parents to help with homework. Kids do not finish homework at home. Because kids have no time after they get off the bus. What if they have to go food shopping. Then they can't finish the work. While some would say to not get your homework done. I say that kids do not finish their homework.

The blazing hot sun warms over the afternoon; balloons, candles, and cake surround me. It is the day of my best friend’s eighth birthday party, laughter and happiness echoes in the atmosphere. An insatiable thirst washes over me so I make my way over to the refreshments table and without hesitation, pour myself the seemingly only drink available. My curiosity peaks, I look around and realize that everyone really does have the same drink. “Why is this the only beverage available?” I wonder. Why did the host assume that everyone would enjoy it? Such a typical occurrence, everyone follows along without question. “How bad could it actually be?” I thought to myself. Just because something is considered normal or common, does that mean it is right

Schools are preparing students for a world that doesn’t exist. Schools’ learning curriculums teach us students facts, but never teach us how to use the facts or why they’re important for us to know. If you were to turn into an adult in the next ten minutes, you wouldn’t know the first thing to do as an adult, on your own in the real world. Think about where you’d live, who your family would be, what car you’d have, what food you’d eat, what job you’d have, what’d you do if you were held at gunpoint, what to say to anyone who asks you a question or gets mad at you for whatever reason or even what you’d do if your car stopped in the middle of nowhere without cell phone service. Maybe you’re able to answer some of those but definitely not most.

These misdemeanor tickets and arrests force students and their families to pay hundreds of dollars in fines, community service, and can lead to a criminal record affecting job applications and possible military service. There is a difference between keeping a campus safe and putting kids in jail. Schools should not have SROs that are looking to criminalize students at a young age, because this is just adding to the issue of the school to prison pipeline. Many of these school police officers are too quick to make arrests and write tickets. Once a child is on paper for any type of infraction, it will follow them for the rest of their high school career, and could possibly affect them into their adult lives.

There continues to be a growing issue involving the controversial argument, whether allowing adolescents also considered pre-teens who are between the ages of eleven and seventeen, have an influence involving their own health. Taking into consideration that such decision making involve life and death, be allowed. It is a controversial issue due to the questioning of adolescent, cognitive and developmental capability to, make such decision involving their own life, which can knowingly lead to the adolescents’ death. There are many influential opposing perspectives as to whether an adolescent is cognitively and developmentally able to act as an influence in their health decision making be permitted. Perspectives such as ethicist Robert F. Weir

Sixty years ago, the nation could afford to lose large numbers of students before graduation because high school dropouts could still land well-paying jobs and support their families. But times have changed. Today, jobs that require relatively little education are increasingly done by machines or shipped overseas, and individuals who fail to earn a high school diploma are at a great disadvantage. According to stimulus one, A world without work, there is numerous occupations being taken over by robots and modern technology. “Oxford researchers have forecast that robots might be able to take half of all U.S. jobs within two decades.” Looking into the future, the job prospects aren’t getting any brighter for individuals with lower levels of education. According to research by the Georgetown Center on Education and the Workforce, 65 percent of all jobs in 2020 will require some form of education after high school. Mostly everyone is well-aware of the problems they receive when they drop out, but few understand the impact beyond each individual. As research by the Alliance for Excellent Education has found, high school dropouts also influence a community’s economic, social, and civic health.

I will be able to attend the event, and I was wondering how other interested students would be selected to attend? I have a friend that read O'Brien's book in high school and would love to attend the dinner if there are any spots available. So if there is any

When the end of senior year of high school comes around there are two decisions to make: to get a job or go to school full-time. Of course getting a job is what everyone wants to do, but sometimes it is easier said than done. In some cases, some people cannot handle going to college and having a job. However, some people do try to handle both, but eventually grades will start to slip. Most kids in high school do not take it as serious as they should. High school is only the beginning of the rest of a person 's life. Some might ask, why not have a job in school? When students think of reasons of why not have a job and go to school, they would say that they could still get paid for doing work, putting in hours of time to complete a task, and the stress that comes along with doing the task.

Although many people believe that we should not force young people to follow the rules in their daily lives, I feel that young people are not enough mature to make right decisions and they should follow direction and obey rules to protect themselves from unfortunate future lives.

This book wouldn’t be possible without those who hurt me, those who didn’t stick up for me and everyone else who made me feel less than.
