...Year round schools should not be allowed because, the school will not have time to upgrade, parents have to pay for expensive childcare, Students who have difficulty with attention, either due to disability or because young elementary students are not developmentally ready to attend for longer periods of time, are unlikely to get more out of a longer school day. This, too, may increase the amount of behavioral issues in the classroom, students will not be able to raise money for college, and year round school is expensive. If we had year round schools then the school might not have an opportunity to update, in Saline they are remodeling their media center and classrooms if they had year round school then they wouldn't be able to do...

...Gabe Aguirre Eng102.229 4 Feb. 2016 Essay One Afraid of Being Alone Weight rooms can be a very intimidating place, especially if a person is not very strong. When I was in high school, I really liked the whole idea of working out. I thought it was very interesting how a person could transform into a new version of themselves that barely resembled their old looks. (At least that’s what the magazines said.) Unfortunately, I had the least amount of knowledge about what exactly I was supposed to do in a weight room. After doing some research reading books, online articles, and watching online videos, I started to teach myself a basic beginner routine. This routine mainly consisted of a bench press, squat, and deadlift, or otherwise known as the big three. The only other exercises I did were accessory work, which would help to increase the big three. I had a good friend named Cesar that had been working out for years since he played on the football team. Cesar continued helping me by giving me more tips, as well. Furthermore, after research and talking to Cesar, I decided that I was ready to officially start working out. Cesar persuaded me to join the workout class at my high school called excel. This class was very simple. It consisted of a teacher supervising the students, and the students would get graded on whether they were working out or not. I really enjoyed lifting with Cesar, because he really pushed me to work hard. He was also my spotter for when I lifted heavy...

...SCHOOLING: IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF EDUCATION In the article, “Should American Schools Go Year Round?” Sindhu Nair suggests the current academic calendar is past its time: This schedule was established when the United States was still a largely agrarian nation. At that time, this system was implemented because children were often needed to work in the fields during the summer. Since those reasons no longer make sense in this modern world, many people are advocating a shift away from this ‘antiquated’ nine month school year in favor of year round education. Used in most American schools, the current school calendar, designed in the late 1800’s, no longer meets the...

...example, a week long period where you can catch up and enjoy the time off. Who wouldn’t love having more days off during the school year? Year-round schooling allows schools to have a two week long break every month and a half. The traditional school year requires students to attend school, with two breaks, until summer. Year-round schooling allows students to have a more flexible schedule. Every school should switch to year-round schooling because it allows students to retain memory, have intercessions at the most vital times, and provide a stress-free learning experience. Body Paragraph #1 An important part of performing well in school is retaining material obtained throughout...

...Weight Gain Larry Hand July 02, 2013 Restricting sleep to 4 hours a night for 5 consecutive nights led to more weight gain for sleep-restricted participants than for control participants, according to results from a large, diverse, in-laboratory assessing sleep's effect on weight, calorie intake, and meal timing. The study was published in the July issue ofSleep. Doctoral candidate Andrea M. Spaeth, MA, from the Department of Psychology, School of Arts and Sciences, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, and colleagues conducted a study involving 225 healthy adults aged 22 to 50 years at the Sleep and Chronobiology Laboratory at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. Study participants were all nonsmokers whose body mass index (BMI) ranged from 19 to 30 kg/m2 and who did not experience any irregular sleep/wake routines during the 60 days before the study. Researchers monitored the participants for a week at home before the laboratory phase, during which they studied the participants for 12, 14, or 18 consecutive days. They randomly assigned participants to either sleep restriction (SR; n = 198) or control (n = 27). SR participants were 45% women and 59% black, with a mean age of 31.3 years and a mean BMI of 24.8 kg/m2. Control participants were 44% women and 63% black, with mean age of 31.9 years and a mean BMI of 25 kg/m2. SR participants had 2 initial nights of 10 to 12 hours in bed, followed by 5 consecutive nights of 4 hours in bed (from 4 am to 8 am)...

...Computers: Communication and Education Catalyst or Inhibitor? The introduction of computers to the educational system of present day launched a new era of both education and communication for high school students. What was once thought of as the future has been made today’s normality. However, with this new influx of technology and freedom of the net comes a change in the way that our brains process information in both education and communication. Computers are utilized as a tool for teaching high school students and the students in turn use this tool for communication on a world-wide base. At the core of this technological, educational, and communicational juggernaut is the realization that isolated facts and data that computers provide do not create meaning by themselves; as a result the education and communication skills of today’s high school students are suffering. High school students of today are utilizing computers today more than ever; this new fascination with a cyber spaced form of contact is leading to a lack of face-to-face communication skills through the effect of a shorter attention span. According to Greenblatt, “human beings have always found it hard to sit alone and remain focused,” and the internet has made this problem exponentially worse for many. He says that it is becoming a common occurrence for people to state that they are no longer able to concentrate on one thing for a significant amount of time. In a 2003 San Jose State University study, it...

Instructor: Jon Edicott Abstract Females in school are exposed to all kinds of different rules that takes away their right to express themselves. During this essay you will find reasons why dress codes are difficult to follow upon female student. This essay will also explore some of the different controversial issues between schools and female students due to the dress code policy, and the different ways females use to fight back. School dress codes are more for females than males, because schools see women as distraction for males and others. Schools dress codes are messing with the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which gives the students the right to express themselves, without hurting others. We will see how females fight back on what they believe it is taking their freedom of speech and freedom to express their unique personalities. Fighting For Freedom Women like to express themselves through clothing, shoes, hair, make up and all kind of different accessories. Regardless of what color, religion, what body size or shape they have, females like to personalize their style using fashion and new trends.

...VERSUS THE BACCALAUREATE-DEGREE LEVEL Donald Villarreal Grand Canyon University: NRS-430V Professional Dynamic 01/09/2016 DIFFERENCES IN COMPETENCIES BETWEEN NURSES PREPARED AT THE ASSOCIATE- DEGREE LEVEL VERSUS THE BACCALAUREATE-DEGREE LEVEL According to Graves & McMullen (2015), registered nursing ranked number 9 on top 25 jobs for 2015. Nursing has gained great admiration over time and there is a demand for registered nurses in our world today. This profession dates back to the 1800’s and Florence Nightingale the developer of modern nursing, went beyond just administering medications but was more concerned for her patients as a whole. A lot of practices that are in place at the hospitals, clinics, and schools today are due to her insightful research overtime. It is the nurses that have more contact with the patient than the doctors, it is the nurses that are at bedside in the middle of the night, and it is the nurses who comfort the families as well. This line of work requires a person to make good judgment calls, life-threatening decisions, and critical thinking on behalf of the patient. Any person who chooses to become a registered nurse must graduate from an accredited nursing program and obtain either an associate’s degree in nursing (ADN) or a bachelor’s degree in nursing (BSN). To obtain an associate degree it may take two years while bachelor’s degree takes four years. Associates degree programs for nursing are speedy, cost effective, and have graduates...

...to growing up. School systems and communities have come up with many different options, and by the end of this paper you can decided which would best suit you. Through research we have found that since back in the 1800’s they have handled schooling in many different ways. Back then schools lacked a long summer vacation we are used to today. Their schooling was handled by them going to school from December to March, have a break, and then return mid-May to August. Other schools in this era had children from working families attend an eleven month school year, it served as a safe and inexpensive place for them to be. Since the 1900’s school districts around the country have offered a longer school year, involving shorter spread out vacations. As opposed to our system now, schooling around the world differs from ours here in America. They are not used to a short school year followed by a long vacation. Instead, children in countries such as Europe, Asia, and South America go to school more days per year, as well as more hours per day. On one side of the debate there is the families and communities that would like year-round schooling. Communities believe that it would save on costs for buildings that go unused during the summer vacations, they believe since fewer students would be attending at any one time they would save money on textbooks and equipment, and since they believe there will be fewer students it would also affect the amount of teachers. Some research...

...2.1 Business 100 The School board changed the breakfast and lunch programs to help improve nutrition and health of our children. The changes so far seem to be for the best of all the children. There are four major issue dealing with the changes are, economic situations, Health of population being served, process, and the benefits of the program. One of the four major issues is economic situation. The federal government will add six more cents to each lunch to make it meet the new standards. New standards took effect in 2011 for schools breakfast and lunch programs. Also parents are in charge of what their children eat, but kids are in the care of the school a good portion of their life too. From my research on this program, children receive up to half there calories at school in form of school breakfast, lunches, and snacks.( Crawford, 2011) Also with the economic downturn we have been in advocates have proposed some changes, which makes more children eligible for free or assistants on meal prices. Meanwhile, meal providers are having issues with covering program costs. Improving the quality of meals for children is essential, but the hard part is getting the students on board with all the health good food and not all the greasy unhealthy foods. Second issue is the heath of the population being served. There are about 25 million kids that are obese and/or overweight. Obesity rates have skyrocketed by 300% over the last 30 years.
