question is what time should school start and end. Some argue a schedule from early in the morning to mid-afternoon; yet‚ as a high schooler‚ I believe in a model where school starts around ten o’clock and finishes at five o’clock. This model coordinates with a teenager’s natural sleep cycle‚ assures students are well rested‚ and gives students that are early risers extra time to accomplish tasks prior to arriving at school. With the model I prefer‚ imagine starting each school day more rested and refreshed

Nowadays‚ a majority of the students refrain from using this language. Many of my students at school tell me with frustration that they find English a difficult language to learn.

Ending the Mediocrity of D´s in Schools Getting a D gets you just as much credit as getting an A. Students are passing high school‚ but learning almost nothing in the process. One school district in New Jersey is trying to push those D students to get C’s by getting rid of the letter D from the grading system. Parent fully support this change but teachers‚ students‚ and some schools are against this because of graduation rates. Many believe that if you take away the letter D then the students that

These high stakes testing is mainly to determine whether the schools get funding‚ awards‚ or salary increases for teachers and administrators (High Stakes Testing 2014).

I also learned that each student has the right to equal education no matter whether they are an English learner‚ have a disability‚ come from

It should be mandatory to offer a course on critical thinking in high schools. All too often people approach situations in a close-minded way and make judgments based off those predetermined thoughts. If high schools offered a critical thinking course this could be changed. A critical thinking class will encourage students to examine situations with logical and an open mind‚ will demonstrate the need and complexity of good reasoning‚ and will provide tools for self-reflection and critical assessment

Teachers and professors should be able to tell the rules to the students at the beginning of the school year and if they choose to not follow them then they will suffer the consequences. Having cameras in the classrooms would be much more helpful than pledging honor codes. Sadly‚ there are not only cheaters in classrooms where they can be caught more easily. Plagiarism also exists in colleges and schools that include policies and well-defined honor. (Source D) This not only shows valuing
