Dr.Doane:So loudly enough for you to hear.”The student sat across the room from Philip nevertheless the student could still hear Philip singing which means that Philip was singing loudly.(AVI pg. 149) “Cynthia Gambia:Well, I heard him. Sort of. I mean, it wasn’t loud or anything. Not like the paper said. But he wouldn’t stop. And she did ask him. I guess that was the disturbance.”This student also heard Philip singing during the morning announcements, which is against the rule of respectful silence during the national anthem.(AVI pg. 153) “(Conversation between Dr.Doane and Allison Dorsett)Dr.Doane:I’m glad. Your telling the truth can only help her.”This student was telling what actually happened in the three days that Philip was singing the

One fan sent a video of him torching a jersey while the national anthem played, and another fan recording, setting fire to a Kaepernick jersey and scoffed at him telling him to “Get the F out of the country.” However, others think differently of the situation. Colin stated “I am not going to stand up and show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color.” Chip Kelly, his coach, supported him protesting.

    Narwin says “I don’t know who that is, but you heard Dr. Doane request silence.” She gives Phillip a warning. On page 113 Miss Narwin says “The boy was creating a serious disturbance.” She tells what happened and proves that she kicked him out, not suspended him. If the case went to court, then Phillip Malloy would win. On page 51 Phillip says “What would you say if a teacher said I wasn’t allowed to sing ‘The Star-Spangled Banner?” First of all, it is rule to remain silent, second of all Ms Narwin gave Phillip a warning, and lastly, he was humming not singing. It’s just a thing I like to do. Sing along when the song is played.” Phillip never sang in Mr. Lunser’s room, and again, he is humming not…

    Okay, so I was in first grade. Lisa Frankel's first grade classroom, one of the biggest in the whole school. It had a single stall bathroom in it and one of those foam mats. You know the ones I’m talking about right? They’re made of this foam material and they’re shaped like puzzle pieces, so you can just buy them separately and put them together. They had a rug too, with the alphabet on it because first graders need help identifying letters or something [laughs uncomfortably] I don’t know. So yea, Lisa Frankel's class, she was pretty nice. Her teacher’s aide was an ass, but I’m getting to that. We’re little, and our handwriting is a disaster, so we’re practicing writing the number 8. Up until then the trick was to draw two connected circles,…

    Respondent public high school student (hereafter respondent) delivered a speech nominating a fellow student for a student elective office at a voluntary assembly that was held during school hours as part of a school-sponsored educational program in self-government, and that was attended by approximately 600 students, many of whom were 14-year-olds. During the entire speech, respondent referred to his candidate in terms of an elaborate, graphic, and explicit sexual metaphor. Some of the students at the assembly hooted and yelled during the speech, some mimicked the sexual activities alluded to in the speech, and others appeared to be bewildered and embarrassed. Prior to delivering the speech, respondent discussed it with several teachers, two of whom advised him that it was inappropriate and should not be given. The morning after the assembly, the Assistant Principal called respondent into her office and notified him that the school considered his speech to have been a violation of the school's "disruptive-conduct rule," which prohibited conduct that substantially interfered with the educational process, including the use of obscene, profane language or gestures.…

    In an attempt to persuade high school football players against following the footsteps of Colin Kaepernick, the San Francisco 49ers quarterback who refused to stand up for the playing of the American national anthem during their games to protest against systemic racism in the United States, David Brooks, in his article “The Uses of Patriotism,” calls Kaepernick’s actions “extremely counterproductive” as it creates a “crisis of solidarity.” To Brooks, sitting during the national anthem demonstrates a lack of gratitude to America’s ancestors and their legacy, and the loss of a sense that “we’re all in this together.” Throughout the article, he emphasizes on the importance of patriotism in the maintenance of the nation. He cites that the American…

    The question was whether or not Fraser's freedom of speech was violated when he was punished for what he said in front of the school during his speech, since he didn't feel he had "adequate warning". The argument was that he negatively affected the school environment by insulting the girls of the school, and nearly traumatizing the younger students. So, the court decided punishment was within the school's full right, since Fraser's actions had to largely impacted the common good, and ultimate goal of the school, saying "The school disciplinary rule proscribing 'obscene' language and the prespeech admonitions of teachers gave adequate warning to Fraser that his lewd speech could subject him to sanctions." Meaning he knew that he could get in trouble for what he did and did it…

    When kids don’t get up it’s for a reason not because they're lazy it because they're tired of getting up at like 3:00 in the morning. In the article “The teen who woke up her school” by Jane Bianchi, it says “Missouri high schools start time 7:50 to 7:20 am” that's way too early. In “Should schools start later” by Lisa .M. Herrington, it says “40% of american schools start classes before 8 am” again way too early. In the video “Abc news report” it stated “next fall or so the school board of edu might move school back a half an hour”. I am in agreement with school starting later.…

    One Room Schoolhouse

    • 6 Pages

    The one room school house of the past required one teacher to meet the needs of many, usually in isolation, with limited resources and inferior materials. The legacy of the one room school house is deeply steeped into the modern education system, the effects of which make teaching difficult, especially for the novice teacher. Most teachers enter the education field with positive attitudes and lofty goals. They believe they can make a difference in the lives of their students. Difficulties in the classroom often overshadow their enthusiasm. Beginning teachers often leave the field of education due to frustration, disillusionment and negative experiences in the classroom. Three aspects of the legacy of the one room school house which are particularly difficult for new teachers are inadequate induction programs, inequity in the work place, and isolation in the classroom.…

    Rampell writes about a man named Bryan Stascavage. Stascavage wrote in an opinion column for a campus newspaper about his distaste for the tactics of the Black Lives Matter movement. His writing contained no name calling or stereotypes, but outrage erupted throughout the campus. The paper apologized and was defunded (1).The rules of the college infringe upon the first amendment right. Stascavage wrote his opinion in a section designated for opinions. Students needlessly took offense to his writing which was more fair than most opinion articles due to the fact that it lacked stereotypes and name calling, but as a result the paper was defunded. The paper should not have been required to apologize because Stascavage gave his fair opinion on a topic. The apology and the defunding both are an infringement on the first amendment all because the university did not approve of his…
