All around the world today, many educational systems have organized a set of regulations and punishments in order to prevent young students from cheating, lying and plagiarizing which is known as the Honor Code. However in Edinburg Cisd, the Robert Vela high school campus maintains a student hand book system that lacks the enforcement its needs to prevent these problematic situation. Ever since the school opened, the possibility of these students cheating and plagiarizing probably increase due to internet access and staff encouragement. Also the punishment placed on these situations is either a zero on the assignment; maximum a level two if continued. Therefore, the Robert Vela high school needs make some revision on harsher punishments, not
ANDREW CARNEGIE—THE ROBBER BARON Andrew Carnegie was one of the greatest of the tycoons of industry in the late nineteenth century, also being one of the greatest of the robber barons of the late nineteenth century. A Robber Baron is an owner of business who puts others down to gain fame and fortune. During a time of laissez faire, which is French for let alone, meaning government stays out of the business of others, any business owner could do whatever they wanted with their industry and workers—Carnegie took advantage of this by paying workers little salary and poor treatment. Some say that his past dictated what his future would be like—growing up poor meant others should grow up poor. With all of his money and power, he considered himself
Because in certain way affects in many families, and soda is coming directly from factory and it has another process to get and transported to store or schools that is more expensive than water. For instance, water should be more used than soda in schools since drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk or certain problems of
Jonathan Kozol, educator and activist, wrote “Freemont High School” in 2005 which came from his book, The Shame of the Nation: The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling in America, to draw attention to the misfortunes of this inner city school in Los Angeles, California. The learning conditions the students have at Freemont are horrendous. Being one of the poorest schools from lack of funding, the health conditions the children have to attend school in are absurd. Compared to Freemont, Maryville High School is a very nice school to attend and has much better learning conditions. The two schools are different in dramatic ways, but neither school is a perfect one to attend.
I believe that you shouldn’t only offer nutritious drinks at school because they’re high in sugar, students will bring drinks from home, and students will boycott the vending machines. First of all, the “healthy drinks” that many people propose replacing sodas and sports drinks with, are not particularly healthy themselves. In fact, drinks
The article states that the average soda contains 240 calories and 15 to 18 teaspoons of sugar. Some of these drinks contain high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) and sucrose (table Sugar). There has been an ongoing debate on whether or not HFCS is bad for you or not. Both HFCS and sucrose are made of about equal amounts
Limiting the amount of soda a person can purchase is not a good idea, despite its benefits. The regulation itself has a multitude of problems, such as how there are many contradictions, how involved the government is, and how the ban doesn’t really improve health. The many contradictions in the soda ban lead to many workarounds, proving how much of a bad idea the law is. According to “Soda’s a Problem But…”, an opinion
Determining the healthiness of food being served to students during school lunches is a very important subject. Although eating healthy is important it should not be the only factor contributing to whether or not taking away students favorite school lunches is beneficial. I don't believe that it is a good idea to take away students favorite school lunches and replacing them with all healthy foods is a good idea because of these three reasons. One, the cost of the healthier food, two, the student environment and mood of the school, and three, the fairness to the students whose only meal is the lunch they receive at school.
That is true, however this argument is weak because there are in fact bigger problems than soda being a health issue. Itś your choice on whether you drink soda or not. It won't do much damage unless it becomes a very consistent thing. Though soda is bad, we have much bigger problems killing people. For example, cigarettes or smoking in general.
But what you don't know is that it was only done to block legislation that was in the process of being passed to have sugar count in teaspoons labeled instead. Why they would choose calories over sugar? Simple, pop has less calories than sugar. “The calories per bottle is not shocking,” said Christina Roberto, an assistant professor of medical ethics and health policy at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. “It’s the amount of sugar.”
As stated in the article ”how much sugar is in a can of soda” it states that “ overeating sugar is linked an increased risk of many serious diseases, including obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer.” The only downside is that if too much is consumed it could take a toll on your health. Right now obesity is a major problem in the U.S. because people are not paying attention to their own health.
Bell 1 During the Great Depression, the housing crisis forced the homeless to create encampments in shack towns known as Hooverville. The shacks were tiny and poorly built. Hoovervilles, named after President Herbert Hoover, were a visible symbol of poverty and the economic struggles faced by the American people during this time. People living in these communities lacked access to necessities such as running water, electricity, and sanitation facilities. As a result, they suffered from illnesses and diseases that were easily preventable.
“A 20-ounce soda contains 15 to 18 teaspoons of sugar and 240 calories. These calories don’t satiate your child, so he will consume the same amount of food as if he did not drink the soda”. However, there are also many sodas that have 0 calories in their product. “We scoured the shelves to find the best sodas out there. Our criteria: no high-fructose corn syrup; no more than 20 g of sugar; no artificial colors like Red 40 or Yellow 5; and a glass of the fizzy stuff had to be less than 100 calories.”
The term “soft drink” refers to any beverage with added sugar or other sweetener, and includes soda, fruit punch, lemonade and other sweetened powdered drinks, and sports and energy drinks. People who drink sugary beverages do not feel as full as if they had eaten the same calories from solid food, and studies show that people consuming sugary beverages don’t compensate for their high caloric content by eating less food. Sugar may be sweet but the health effects of sugar consumptions are not. Drinking large amounts of sugary beverages can often lead to serious health issues.
That is why many propose regulating the purchases of carbonated drinks pact with sugar, or more commonly known as soda. One can of soda contains about 2.5 tablespoons of sugar, and on average, 9% of the daily calories consumed per person is from soda. Due to the high numbers of obesity in America, soda’s and other drinks high in sugar, should be regulated. Obesity can lead to many health problems. Some issues that can potentially occur because of what the person is eating include diabetes, high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, body pains, and potential death (in fact, one article in The New York Times claimed sugar, more particularly soda, to “might just be the biggest killers via preventable disease in the country”
