whatever hapend to non biased media, where one could only get facts, not oppinionated garbage generated by whoever pays the highest donation. give me a break
When paragon industrys went on strike around march 2009,it held the same response as this. People need to understand that the golden age of unskilled labor jobs in mills and factories is long gone. I know there are many oppourtunitys to better ones self, ive made good use of several of them myself. Government and industry will give people a helping hand when it comes to making themselves more marketable in a highly competitive society, but it is not a handout. people need to take matters into there own hands instead of letting beurocrats make the decisions for them.
I have to agree with DoctorGonzo, america has become a peranoid society based on fear and stereotypes. Over the past few years, i have worked in a predominatly muslim area, and i have seen nothing but good come from the comunity. Yes, there are flaws in certin aspects, but that is part of being human. have we frgotten where the real problems lie.
if memory serves me correctly, wasnt there a certin album when played backwards, stated satan is king. id like to see how they pulled that off.
Who is to say that every student is the same. In my field of practice, it is required to give blocks of instruction on various topics. Due to the fact of the diverse makeup of the company, it is required that we have to take multiple approaches to educating both our subordinates and suppiors. that being said, it would not only be impracticle, but more likly impossible to use the same method. I know the school system works, I have seen many outstanding examples of students with outstanding potentual become prime examples of society. I have also seen many cases where educators worked with individuals who were not academicaly inclined to become something better.
I agree with Dr Hoover in the argument of life experiances affect the maner i which a student learns. stress from the home environment will deffinatly have an effect on the preformance of a child. One can not just tell a chid to grow up becase things were bad at home. A person who does try to enforce these ideals for such a young age group is incompitant as an educator.
Also, speaking of life experiance learning, oldman, you may want to into your comment. As i wrote this, one of my section cheifs noticed your comment, and well, he was not exactly as friendly in wording as i have been.
finnaly, fault is placed on someone other then the teachers and faculty. yes, i understand there are flaws in the security aspect, but what realy needs to be defined is the true sorce of the problem
As far as the concept of sending home a copy of the dresscode, having it signed by a parent, and then having it brought back to the school, hah. I've seen first hand how many of those slips actualy made it home, or i should say, never left the classroom. I could never count the many times signitures were forged, mail intercepted, calls made to someones brother posing as a father. Parents are letting social standards fall by the wayside. Yes, while I support individuality and expressionism, but what ever happend to taste, or better yet, common sense.
Not to give discredit to all students, however, because I have seen multiple cases where the students are better dressed then there parents. Honestly, how can you expect students to abide by and uphold standerds, while parents are wearing things that should never be worn outside of the bedroom.
While do belive that a lower student to faculty ratio does improve the academic environment, you will loose a crucial tool in the developement of interpersonal skills when you break down the lower grade levels into even smaller groups.
For my final thought, the school system is not a babysitting program. It is a tool in wich to create a better future, to better the lives of our children. The public school system is not the only flaw in the system.
Judging by the information in the article and other sources, the modified dresscode is reaonable. At the same time it is a way to enforce discipline in the school system. As a former student in the school district, I know firsthand of what rules and regulations were in place. The original dresscode was designed to not only prohibit distrations from the learning environment, but also to promote professionalism. However, it seems that many parents arent aware of the current regulations, or are not enforcing them at home.
The same principal also applies with the quality of education. If parents were truly concerned about the education of there child, then they would take matters into there own hands, not just send them to another district to task the problem on someone else.
