Dear Senior, you are currently in a very emotional and stressful period of time as you are getting ready to open your wings and fly, or in this case graduate. you are probably planing what you are going to wear underneath your gown, starting to decorate your cap, and eve thinking about the bad ass summer activities that will be on your Instagram feed the next couple of months. you are probably scared as shit to start a new chapter of individuality and responsibility in life.
As graduation day approaches there are a few things you should keep in mind, graduation is a celebration of not just high school completion but of the life learning experiences, its about the celebration of not leaving, but entering into an even bigger educational step, and by this i don’t mean college,...
Education
Queen's University vice-chancellor Patrick Johnston stated in the Belfast Telegraph on 30th May 2016 the following: "We are also stopping single honours sociology and anthropology, but intend to strengthen those subjects by allowing them to partner with other subject areas which actually make their relevance more connected. Society doesn't need a 21-year-old who is a sixth century historian. It needs a 21-year-old who really understands how to analyse things, understands the tenets of leadership and contributing to society, who is a thinker and someone who has the potential to help society drive forward. I don't talk about producing graduates, I talk about producing citizens that have the potential for leadership in society." We the undersigned as longstandstanding experts and teachers in...

Dear Students at Lake Highland Prep,
I feel so lucky to wake up each morning and attend Lake Highland. Each one of our classrooms has a Smartboard and everyone has an iPad to use along with it. Most of our assignments can be taken from the online homework page and can be turned in there as well. Despite the amazing things Lake Highland has to offer, I still hear people dread school and wish to be anywhere else but school.
While some may dread going to school, others are hoping to attend school. The McKinney-Vento act is a law that allows homeless children immediate enrollment into their district school. In other words, this shows that homeless or not, you have a right to an education. This education may not include the iPads or smartboards that we get to use at Lake Highland, but...

Dear Ms Morgan,
I am writing as a Chair of Governors of a voluntary aided 2 form entry primary school, however I am not writing on behalf of the staff or children of our school – these are my own views. I am also not intending to blame you for everything that is happening in our schools at the moment as I fully understand that you are but one of many people who have tinkered with our education system over recent years.
As a governor at our school, I have been going in to school this week to see the process of opening the SATs papers and then to observe the tests taking place.
There are two main reasons for this letter and please be assured, I am not a letter writer or a complainer – I usually leave that to others!
Firstly, yesterday! I’m sure by now you are fed up with...

As our freshman year comes to a close I'd like to tell you thank you. Thank you for letting me borrow your children, whom you love more than anything. Please know that when you cried tears of sadness the day you moved them in, I cried tears of joy knowing I would have a family away from home. As I learned how to "adult" this year, I learned what my mom was always talking about when it came to "the real stressors of life". I learned people won't always give as much love back to you as you give to them. I learned sometimes you HAVE to pull an allnighter even though you've already been awake for 48 hours. I learned that trips to Sheetz and Walmart at 2 o'clock in the morning can turn out to be more fun than any real vacation. I learned if you all eat hibachi together and stuff yourself so...

Hello. How are you today. I would like to begin this letter by stating that I am a woman and understand how difficult it is to be born with a small penis. No man chooses the size of his penis, if men could choose every man would be well hung and penis size would not be an issue. However, that is not the case and penis size is an issue and it is one issue that is the most and still least talked about on the planet. How can it be the most and least talked about you ask? Well, we women speak about at great lengths with each other and men also speak about it with each other but we never seem to speak about it with the opposite sex. I would like to change that. I am sure that we all would like to enjoy sex all of the time, every time but there are many misconceptions about penis size and...

The matter of class size is a formidable argument and your child’s poor academic performance may be the outcome. Studies have proven that lower class sizes, at least in the earliest grades, are linked to positive educational benefits such as better test scores, fewer dropouts and higher graduation rates, especially for disadvantaged children (2). While some believe smaller classes are optimal for kids, Lawmakers, School officials and Policy makers think otherwise. They know the benefits of class size but are too concerned with money, they agree that those benefits outweigh the costs. Now the question we should ask ourselves is, should improving schools be all about money or the education? Lawmakers as well as school officials should give adequate funding to ensure smaller class size...

* 49 China foreign teachers spent their Christmas in a Shanghai jail after being caught working with illegal F and Z visas. He even deleted 7 users who posted this article link to the Global Times newspaper and 3 to CCTV News archives.
