Public School RankingsRemember the Army slogan, “I Want YOU for the U.S. Army!”? The poster showed a very stern Uncle Sam jabbing his finger nearly out of the picture. What about the one by Smokey the Bear? “Even YOU can prevent forest fires!” Well, let’s add another one, shall we? “It’s important for YOU to consider Public School Rankings !” when considering a move to a new city or state. A Commentary on Dallas SchoolsIt is important when considering a move to a new city or state to know as much about the schools as possible. Facts are important, but so are the opinions of people in the know – residents, new co-workers, researchers, websites and journalists are a few of the resources that one might consult in order to gain a clear perspective of the big picture. New York Schools Institute Universal AssessmentsThe necessity to assess students is irrefutable. In fact, a lot of people believe that formal assessments are the only way to tell how a student is progressing, and teachers feel pressured to teach to the test. Milwaukee Schools Claims Right DirectionSchools come up with action plans every day. In fact, the Milwaukee Schools recently announced the adoption of an action plan that is designed to make its students competitive with some of the best schools in the country. The plan, designated “Working Together, Achieving More,” Being an Involved Parent of a Child in Miami SchoolsBeing a parent of a school aged child has never been an easy task. And with all the choices facing young people these days, the job is getting even harder.

After-school Tutoring for Memphis Schools StudentsDid you ever need a little extra help with a school subject? At some point or another, almost all of us have. Whether it’s been something like handwriting or learning letters to diagramming a sentence or geometry, we’ve all had times when we’ve struggled in school. Lots Riding on the Los Angeles Unified School DistrictMany, many people live in Los Angeles. As of the latest census there were an estimated 9,948,081 people living there. Los Angeles covers a land area of 4,061 square miles, with 2,344 persons occupying each of those areas. Las Vegas Schools Need TeachersWithout students, there are no schools. Of course, amassing students without teachers doesn’t make a school either. This is the problem that Las Vegas Schools are currently facing. Kansas City Schools Serve Unique StudentsEvery city in every state in this nation has a homeless population. These are people who are “down on their luck”. They may have suffered a series of financial disasters and have been driven from their homes because they simply couldn’t pay the bills. Small Schools Offer Alternatives for Indianapolis SchoolsWhen I was in high school, I attended the only high school our town had. A one-high school town, our school was home to every 14-18 year old in residence. My senior year, there were about 250 of us graduating. I thought that was a lot; but I still at least knew everyone’s name, even if I wasn’t friends with them all.
