Recommended: Problems encountered in high school

I have recently been going around and talking to a few students about concerns regarding their experiences at school. I was able to understand on a personal level on what some of the students felt needed to be done around Madison County High School. This letter includes some of the most voiced problems were and some proposed ideas to correct these problems.
Multiple students have said that due to construction, there isn't really much of a place to go in the morning. There have been numerous complaints that the cafeteria is overcrowded and I have even witnessed it being a struggle just to leave the cafeteria in the morning due to it being that crowded. It is hard to stand outside in the mornings due to the recent weather being cold. Teachers have said that we could go to the library in the morning but the library is limited on space and isn't the best alternative. A possible solution is to let students sit/stand in the hallway by the office entrance near the cafeteria as long as they are not blocking the doors and …show more content…

For example, Ms.Gudz has stopped assigning homework in her class because she claims that she was told to stop assigning it because a few students wouldn't be responsible and do their homework. Homework's purpose is to reassess the information that is being taught in class. Especially with subjects like Algebra II, students tend to struggle with obtaining the information without the help of homework. Some students even claimed that homework helped bring up their grades whenever they didn't do so well on a test. A possible solution is to reassign homework to help better grades in math classes. Benefits of reassigning homework in math class includes the fact that homework helped bring up the grades of students who did homework and it helps reassess information, however, for the students who don't take responsibility and do their homework, their grade will

An open letter to Roger S. Goodell, Commissioner of the National Football League, from Lester Grinspoon M.D. I am among the millions of people who enjoy football as a spectator sport. However, I am becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the growing specter that many of these athletes will pay the price of developing Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) to a greater or lesser extent as they grow older. I believe that any change in the rules of the game which would accommodate these concerns would also diminish its popularity. I also believe that attempts to improve protective equipment can only go so far without seriously diminishing the skills and capacities of the player.

Unfortunately, that letter was not delivered by a magical owl informing us of our acceptance into Hogwarts. Close, but not quite. Even so, the simple letter was not so little. This letter was the metaphorical door into a world we never knew existed, as cheesy as that sounds.

They are constantly judging with the classes more important so they can pick a subject to study at home. We cannot however eliminate homework because it gives students a chance to better understand the material been taught in class. We cannot expect students to master a subject without spending extra time beyond the classroom. They need to practice the material on their own so they have a better understanding of what their pros and cons. As far with parents saying homework ruining relationships, I find it sad.

Students having homework does not benefit them in their academic skills and should be abolished.

A lot of tests have proven that homework does not help improve a student’s performance of skills.

“Some argue that we need to toughen kids up for high school, college, and the workforce” (Kalish 2). This is true, however; there are many other ways to teach responsibility, such as chores or lessons that are not lessons based on the core classes of a school but on life, instead. Another argument some might make is the thought that homework doesn’t lower grades. If a child does not fully understand the concept of how to do something, for example in a math class, and they are doing problems in a way they believe is right, the way the problem is done by them will be embedded in their minds. This could lead to a failure on a test, which will then lower their

According to John Bishop, “School and homework show students the important life lessons, such as how to read and communicate with others, that they will use as an adult.” Students can learn how important planning, staying organized and taking action is just from doing homework. Homework gives the students an opportunity to learn how to work independently. Although I understand that assigning homework is not beneficial at times, I still believe that assigning homework can teach students many skills and even help teachers. Assigning homework to students is constructive, therefore teachers should assign homework because it allows students to gain responsibility, time-management, perseverance, self-esteem, homework also gives students a chance to review the class material, and it also helps teachers determine how well the lessons and materials are being understood by their students.
