According to Child and Adolescent Development for Educators, children spend about 32% of their time in school (Daniels, Meece, 2008). Therefore, school plays a major role in the development of children. Thus, more specifically, what are the roles educators, and education, play on the development of twin siblings?

According to the Louisiana Depart of Education (2008), to meet the demands of the comprehensive curriculum, these students are required to write complex multi-paragraph compositions with a clearly focused main idea and developed with relevant ideas, organization patterns, and structure that communicates clearly to the reader.

School Uniforms and Their Effect on Education      Going to public schools all my life, I heard the gossip of "fashion" and "whose wearing what,"pretty much everyday; at least in the four years of high school where it seemed that looks mattered the most.
