Be consistent. I know that each situation should be treated individually but I think I am talking about ISS. Children that have been in ISS 3-4 times in a quarter, especially the first semester or even the first month need more in depth looking into as to WHY.
This passing students on to the next grade when they do next to nothing in a classroom needs to stop! We are not helping students because in high school they have no background knowledge. Also this atheletic. You can get poor grades up until game day then overnight they can improve just so they can play. Cheerleaders also included.
Tap into the community and celebrate the cultures of all. I also think that it would be nice to see a more diverse group of teachers on staff. Students need to that there are successful people that look like them.
I believe it would be beneficial to our school to have a larger mediation outlet, including more school counselors as well as a student mediation team.
We need to do a better job of addressing the academic needs of students according to their ability to function in a classroom. We are daily dealing with students who are suffering from mental illnesses or behavioral disorders that consistently disrupt the learning environment. There must be alternative educational environments to meet the needs of these students as well as protect learning for the students who are able and willing to follow expectations. Also, many special education students to do not improve academically in the regular education classroom regardless of adaptions and IEP mandates. Many sped students with numerous goals would thrive with small group, individualized support. Just because inclusion is politically correct does not mean the student is receiving what they need academically and behaviorally in some cases.
While social promotion is the norm in our district, students with failing classes should be mandated to summer school - Saturday school- or a similar program to ensure skills mastery before enrolling in the next grade. Many of our students continue failing subject after subject and then find themselves lacking the academic background to be successful in high school.
