We all seem to think of the same things when we picture "high school". Cheerleaders‚ proms‚ report cards‚ football games. We all remember the A honor roll students‚ and how much time they spent studying. The thing that I have always questioned is‚ do children that come from lower status families do worse in school than ones from higher status families? I noticed as early as middle school that the ones who weren’t as secure financially tended to study less than the ones whose families were well

While at my community church‚ I noticed that many students in my

Many people think that school everywhere should practice social promotion‚ or moving kids on to the next grade without them passing it. We can’t teach our students that it’s okay that you don’t need to understand lessons taught in school and they will be fine in the next grade. If kids are promoted to the next grade without passing the year before‚ they will experience many issues‚ not just learning the concepts‚ but with behavior and self-esteem. If an elementary student does not successfully

The hair style of high school students has been a controversial issue for many years. The prescribed plain short hair may look tidy‚ but the insistence on the hair length below the ear lobe in the case of girl students‚ which is fixed at one centimeter or at most two‚ is quite unnecessary. Until recently‚ the Mayor of Tainan had tried to persuade the Ministry of Education to give the high schoolers the carte blanche to determine their own hair styles.

Extending High School. I don’t think high school should be extended to five years. Many students can barely make it past the first couple years. If high school is extended‚ then there will be an increase in the number of student dropouts. There will be a decrease in the number of high school graduates. Many students don’t like school‚ so an additional year may just be too much. Eventually‚ they will decide to drop out. More conflict will arise for those students who do not get along well with
