When looking at colleges Missouri Southern State University was the very first choice that came to mind. Missouri Southern State University has many names that it goes by, such as Southern, MSSU, and even MoSo. Southern is known for many things such as their class size, placement rate, tuition, and the fact that they offer A+ program for students. Another big factor for choosing MSSU was the distance away from home which is 3.6 miles. Southern offers a program called A+ Leadership Scholarship.

Harel Tillinger In the case presented, Hopewell High School has a practice of saying a voluntary prayer before each football game in which the coaches may participate and these prayers take place on school grounds. A father of two football players on the team, sued the school district because his children do not participate in the team prayers and are ostracized for doing so. In the case of O’Connell v. Hopewell School District, New Jersey, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr delivers the opinion of the court.
At the time of hire, Chesapeake Public School was not on my list of desired employers. However, it is difficult to coin Chesapeake Public Schools in this question prompt. Chesapeake Public Schools pays beyond average pay even for school districts within the state of Virginia.

I will be spending the 2016-17 academic year teaching Chemistry at James Irwin Charter High School. My responsibilities at James Irwin do not stop with teaching – I also manage the science department and am at the forefront of health and wellness efforts across all four James Irwin Charter campuses (not to mention all of the unwritten tasks of a teacher). In managing the science department, I collaborate in curriculum meetings, coordinate weekly lab inspections, support the success of my colleagues, and oversee all purchase orders. Working at James Irwin has taught me valuable workplace ediquette. The most practical example of that involves teamwork.
Motlow State Community College does not offer a cafeteria for students at the Smyrna Center. Constructing a cafeteria at Motlow State Community College would be beneficial for everyone, including the staff and students. A cafeteria would offer convenience for students and staff, increase the attendance rate, and allow students to engage in social interactions with one another. Not only is cafeteria favorable for the Motlow State community, but it would multiply the revenue for the school. Predominantly, constructing a cafeteria will improve the Smyrna campus as a whole.
Gisselle Zepeda Mr. Lievre American Government Credit 5 Board of Education of Westside Community Schools Versus Mergens The Equal Access Act upheld by the Supreme Court in Board of Education v. Mergens, 1990, requires public secondary schools to allow access to religiously based student groups on the same basis as other student clubs. The school administration denied a group of students their right to create a Christian after school club. The students intended for their club to have just the same privileges and club meetings as all other after school clubs. The schools excuse being that it lacked faculty support which led to the school and district being sued by the students.
San Antonio Independent School District v. Rodriguez case. Texas public primary and secondary schools rely on local property taxes for supplemental income. These schools are designed to establish a minimum education threshold at each school. The San Antonio District in the representation of families residing in poor districts challenged this funding scheme by arguing that students were disadvantaged because their schools lacked the property used by other districts, and academic programs receiving government funding should favor all students equally. Having already talked the facts of the San Antonio Independent School District v. Rodriguez, I would like to discuss how this has been another topic of much attention within the Department of Education of different districts.
Jackson v. Birmingham Board of Education 2005 Kirsten Dooley Liberty High School AP Government 2A Jackson v. Birmingham Board of Education was a U.S. Supreme Court case surrounding sex discrimination and people who face retaliation for trying to uphold Title IX of the Education Amendments.

Jackson sued for retaliation, and the case would be heard in the Supreme Court in 2005. This case was important in deciding that those who are retaliated against for arguing sex discrimination, even though they may not have faced it themselves,
With meetings and personnel set. This year we are organized to hit the ground running. As O’Neil stated, school newsletters, parent/teacher conferences, Parent Teacher Association or Organizations meetings, classroom visits, school board meetings, student to student, student to parent, newspapers and television reports, local business conversations, websites, social media feeds, and social networking sites" (2012, p. 75); my school has scheduled meetings that address these communication strategies. We have designated people in charge of them to utilize each venue for success. 2.
Aside from what was said before, it does not take even Einstein himself to figure out that what Ahmed had brought to class had no physical representation of something seen hazardous by mankind, yet Ahmed’s teacher had the guts to claim that what Ahmed brought in was the legitimate representation of a bomb. As you can see from the picture shown above, Ahmed brought in had no explosives attached; it was presented in a metal case and contained only circuits. Even someone who is inexperienced can determine that multiple circuits can only make a spark and not an explosion. This questions the hiring system for teachers in schools like this. Someone this inexperienced should not partake in the education system.
“Build the wall,” an anti-immigrant chant made popular by President-elect Donald Trump, was heard on the Texas A&M campus on Nov. 9, according to student Alejandra Luna.

With such a big gap in race population on campus, the question of will Texas A&M protect minority students from the hostile environment of racism comes into the worries of
