How can teachers be advocates for children in and out of the classroom? Teachers play an important role‚ everyone knows that‚ but does anyone actually know how much teachers do for us? It seems that teachers are just an authority figure at school‚ but it is so much more than that. Teachers are in a classroom with about 25 children who thirst for an education.

The Dickenson County School Board wants to add a hour and a half to the school day. I disagree with the idea for three reasons. One‚ the school day is long enough. Two‚ children will not have time for sports‚ clubs‚ and other after school activities. Three‚ stress levels are bound to rise with this nonsense. Why add boring hours to dreary days? Staff and students handle more than meets the eye during the day. The effects of a change such as this will only end poorly. In other words‚ why torture children

Schools should ask students to evaluate their teachers. There are with no doubt a lot of good and experienced teachers‚ but in my opinion there are also a lot that do not belong in the classroom. Schools should ask students to evaluate their teachers in order to avoid choosing bad and inexperienced teachers‚ in order to learn what students like and dislike about the teaching methods and to make them feel more valuable for the school. First of all‚ a good teacher should have enough

Good Elementary School‚ in the fourth grade hallway. My friend Devon and I were walking down the hallway coming back from the office. We were taking something there for a teacher. Devon

Imagine teachers carrying guns in school. School boards are trying to reduce the amount of shots fired in school‚ how will adding more guns achieve that? Although guns have been used for protection for decades‚ they will only cause more harm if used by teachers. Protection on school grounds is undoubtedly essential‚ but adding more guns will ultimately lead to a more dangerous environment. Teenagers are constantly playing video games; they love the challenge of playing a difficult level and the
