The human resources department is crucial to a company’s success. They assist in recruiting the right employees for different jobs, creating a safe work environment, improving labor relations, negotiating compensation, and recognizing local employment laws. Rancho Solana Preparatory School (RSPS) is a prestigious private school renowned for their ability to prepare students for the transition from high school to college with their rigorous curriculum (Creno, 2014). The campuses in Gilbert and Peoria, Arizona closed following the 2014 school year because of difficulties in the school’s subsystems. Many faculty members and students were left scrambling to find new accommodations with little time. Private schools weren’t aligned with market conditions …show more content…

Following the closure of the campuses the human resources department was terminated. Dr. Menard, head of school at RSPS, informed parents that the closing of schools was due to low enrollment numbers. Based on the new direction undertaken indicates that RSPS has not been generating enough profit to warrant any growth. The observable culture represented a school who lost focus on the core values that attracted students in the first place, commitment. This school had been so centered on a fast-turning profit that employees were neglected instead of trying to start a bond that will lead to employee retention. This was a school that was previously non-profit so there are previous generations of stakeholders who still believe in the founding fundamentals. The human resources department could have had a valuable input in responding to the situation. By trying to intertwine the growth of the campus with the cohesiveness of the community the Meritas Family could have started an ascending growth rate in student enrollment. Communicating with staff and parents could have given administrators another perspective to look at the campuses. The overall objectives could have been met with strategic planning.

Since I started participating in the CBAs, I have become active in the Houston-area HLS Alumni Association as a member of its Board of Directors. By way of example, in March 2016, I introduced two black HLS alumni, both of whom were elected to high municipal office in Houston, Mayor Sylvester Turner and Council Member Amanda Edwards, at a reception in their honor sponsored by the Association. It is unlikely that I would have been interested in becoming involved with the local HLS Alumni Association to the extent that I have were it not for the CBAs. It was not necessary for David to take on the work entailed in organizing the CBAs to satisfy his community service at the Law School. But following through as he did to make the CBAs happen illustrates, as clearly and powerfully as anything else I could cite, how truly special David is to the HLS community, and what an extraordinary Dean he would make.

n “The Failure of American Public Education” (February 01 1993), John Hood explains the sundry perspectives on the American education system. Hood tactfully uses cause and effect to demonstrate the viewpoints of a myriad of individuals regarding American schools and their approaches to effectively educating students; he explains how “free-market thinkers believe that applying market competition to the public schools will solve many of America’s educational problems” (Hood) ; “critics believe that public education reforms fail because they are compromised or sabotaged by the education lobbies—teacher associations, administrators, and the legislators in their pockets” (Hood) and “many conservatives believe that American public education is in

Despite the contrasting environment, private school students are no different than public school students. In an online manifesto, If You Send Your Kid to Private school you are bad, Allison Benedikt, an executive editor states, “But many others go private for religious reasons, or because their kids have behavioral or learning issues, or simply because the public school in their district is not so hot”. This proves that private schools are not filled with angels, but rather kids who have behavioral issues and need that extra help. In senior writer and editor John S Kiernan’s, online article, Private Schools vs. Public Schools - Experts Weigh In, Patrick J.
