School Choice – An Educational Custom Fit Imagine if only one size of pants were sold in stores and government regulations wouldn’t allow any other size to be made available to consumers. This may sound crazy but it’s much like what’s happening with the education of our nation’s children. As Americans we enjoy a wide range of personal choice, and thankfully it includes our ability to select the pants that fit us best. But think for a moment about traditional public education. For...

In ancient India, schools were in the form of Gurukuls. Gurukuls were traditional Hindu residential schools of learning; typically the teacher's house or a monastery. During the Mughal rule, Madrasahs were introduced in India to educate the children of Muslim parents. British records show that indigenous education was widespread in the 18th century, with a school for every temple, mosque or village in most regions of the country. The subjects taught included Reading, Writing, Arithmetic,...

Schoolhouse or Home School? What do George Washington and the Hanson brothers have in common? Do you give up? Well, the answer is that both of them were educated in their homes. Queen Elizabeth, Thomas Edison, and Theodore Roosevelt were also educated at home. According to the Home Education Research Institute, 1.5 million students are staying home for class today. This number is five times more than ten years ago (Kantrow and Wingert 66). This trend leads to many questions. Does home...

Elementary School and Middle School ENG 121 Prof. Melody Debonnel September 2012 Elementary School and Middle School Transitioning from elementary school to middle school is something we all have or had to do! Most kids cringe at the thought of making this huge step in life. For many students this transition can be a time of mixed emotions.

For years, there has been debate over home schooling and public schooling: therefore, I will compare and contrast classroom ratio, environment, and social skills of the children. There are numerous advantages and disadvantages to both home schooling and public schooling. The following essay will compare and contrast many of these reasons. Every parent should consider all of the advantages and disadvantages when deciding on the education of their children and where they will receive it....

Private Schools VS. Public Schools Parents often wonder how to start off their children's education. Depending on ones religion or beliefs a private or public school is a choose most parents face. Of course, each school offers it's own pros and con's the choice is simple. Public schools offer the best well rounding of a student.

 A Choice of Public Education COM155 March 9, 2014 A Choice of Public Education Did you know you have more choices today about where your children attend public school?

Home School Vs Public School Have you ever wondered what the difference is between home schooling your children and sending them to a public school? How are there learning environments different and similar? How do they teach the state standards compared to teaching them yourself? What are the disadvantages and advantages of home schooling and public school? Doing the research yourself can be a waste of time sometimes or if you don’t have the time. The learning environment of public...

 Home School v/s Private School I wouldn’t recommend home schooling to any parent, I would rather send my child/children to regular school instead, all because to me your child doesn’t learn anything from sitting at home getting taught from the parents. Not saying that the parents are not teaching them anything, but that they need to be around more people. Attending regular school have your child/children around more siblings their age and not just be around the parents all the time. A...

Do Private School Students Achieve Better Academically Than Do Public School Students? Name Institution Introduction Are private school students better than those in public schools? What are some of the factors that separate the quality of education received by the two groups of students? Controversy has in the past brewed over studies that have indicated that students in private schools perform better than those in public schools. This paper is therefore meant at an in-depth analysis...

Being able to go to school is a privilege. Here in the United States, they offer public schools to everyone without a fee but in other countries like the Philippines, they don't. The Philippines is one of the third-world countries which means that there's more poor people than rich and not everyone can afford to get an education. From where I used to live when I was still there, I always see children in the streets selling flowers or rags and most of them are just below the age of 16. They have...

Public School versus Home School Public School versus Home School Over the years people have debated which one is a better education system for children, whether it is public school, or home school. There are many arguments for which one benefits the student more, such as social development in children, the education level to which he receives and also the maturity level upon completion. With the number of homeschoolers growing at about 11% a year so you can see that the public opinion of...

School Memories School days were the same from day to day most times. School lunches were at the same time every day at noon. They were great because I got satisfied, I got to visit with friends, and I got to burn energy. Right before lunch everyday my teacher would have the whole class clean up the classroom. After we were done she would line us up alphabetically. Luck me I was always in the front. The she would have us walk down the hallway. I would see posters and artwork on the...

I enjoy picnics. A picnic is something special. It has several unique features. For one it comes very seldom. It involves participation in and enjoyment by a number of people. It allows the pleasure and thrill of a short journey in the company of friends. It takes palace in the open without any restraining walls or roof. It allows scope for any sort of activity. It gives one pleasure of eating food that tastes different simply because it has been cooked in a different manner. The success of a...

Melissa Green Advertising in Schools Although this semester our class has discussed the different types of advertising in the marketplace, one technique that was not discussed is that of advertising in schools. This idea is a growing technique that if conducted the right way, could perhaps benefit not only corporate organizations, but also schools and students. However, there are many critics, along with parents that feel advertising in schools is a horrible idea and could only lead to harm....

Choosing the Right School Wanting to further your education, but faced with too many choices? Don’t think you can find the time in your busy schedule? There are many options out there now, that are becoming more popular. Not too long ago online schooling was not looked at as an acceptable method of education by employers. Before 2006 you could not even use a Federal student loan to attend an online school. As time has now shown both types of schooling, online and traditional, provide the...

School days I feel wow pleased to write for Carmel times this time, not as a ‘Student’. It’s really a thrilling experience to write about the ‘Golden School days’. Those were the days which I am missing since half an year. It’s all due to the love and affection which I received from my alma mater, my second home, my school. Realization of the universal truth, I must say, “School is our second home” is indeed a mixed feeling. It brings happiness on my face as I have been made very strong...

These schools can be either primary covering stages 1 and 2 or secondary covering stage 3. Grammar schools are state run and are secondary schools covering key stage...

Schools have policies and procedures so that the governors, staff, parents and others who are involved with the running of the school, are able to work from a set of guidelines which are followed by all, which gives clear comprehensive consistency. There are a lot of different policies relating to all different aspects of procedures and should be accessible should they need to be referred to. Although each school will have there own set of policies with varying titles or a slightly different...

There should be no guns in class room. Because it may cause more violence in the school and cause more school shootings. Kids may find the gun and use it against others. Also some younger kids may feel threatened with a gun in the class room. However assuming that any teacher and kid would not go on a killing spree yes it could be a good idea, but considering most school shooting are caused by children/teens it is not a logic idea. We do not need more guns in schools I personally think that we...

Against School Gattos opinion on school is extremely intense and straight forward. For the most part I agree with his standing point on the subject of schooling. I agree with his arguments of how we have become a society that completely relies on technology to keep us from being bored, and this notion teaches us to be absent minded rather than creative. I also agree that keeping kids “locked up” in a building for about seven hours a day gives us no room to grow individually and learn from...

School Days This memoir is about looking back on all of my school days so far and acknowledging the good’s and bad times that I’ve had during these days. The first school I went too was the Knox church. The second school where I spent seven years at was Caudle Park elementary. During my easy years in junior high were spent at A.J. Smeltzer. I don’t remember a lot about my days in preschool. I went to preschool at the Knox church. During that time my mother didn’t have her license so...

Your school has very little money for things like computers or technology. You walk into second period one day, sit down, and discover that the floor next to your desk is damp. The teacher explains that there is a leak in the roof, and that the school can't afford to fix it. The school can't afford to fix the leak or buy computers because it is...

The Problems Of School School is boring. It is absolutely pointless. These are just a few of the negative thing children are saying about school nowadays. School can teach you things about the real world but the only way you really will learn is by making choices and mistakes in the real world. It may help you make those choices and learn from those mistakes but hey, if your parents raise you right you'll be fine. In fact, your parents probably have had to deal with some of the problems...

By: Rebekah Miller E-mail: rebekahniles@yahoo.com In the book School Girls by Peggy Orenstein, the focus is on young adolescent girls in middle school, and the effects that the "Hidden Curriculum" and other elements have on their self esteem. "Hidden Curriculum teaches girls to value silence and compliance." (pg.35) The hidden curriculum is a theory that boys often get more attention than girls in the classroom, and that even if it is negative attention, the girls learn that they are not...

The perfect school The perfect school would have to be appealing to the students and offer a pleasant environment. It would certainly be a place where students would feel comfortable to learn. It would be located in the countryside, away from the city centre without car fumes, traffic and noise.

During class one day, some students spilled paint on the...

Kids growing up in this era will have no imagination because it’s all straight forward stuff. Teacher get mad at you if you doodle on your paper or step out of line in the hall...

This was a very interesting post!! I am high school math teacher in an urban district and I think the students need a detox at the beginning of the year. I think the most frightening thing is how many students just “hate” school. I think educators in my school district have been lead to believe that we start teaching subject skills on day 1. We don’t always have the chance to get to know our students on day one except for their names and maybe their birthdates. I really appreciate the links to...

School nutrition is becoming a top priority in schools today. Schools all around the country are throwing out the junk food and replacing it with low-calorie fruit snacks and baked chips.

He gave the...

School Uniforms Imagine waking up every morning and going to school. You put on the same clothes that you were wearing yesterday and walk to school. You open the door to the school and see everyone, all wearing the same exact outfit as you. The dread feeling you get because you feel the same way as you did every day.
