- 183: More Freedom or Safety -- What Would You Choose?
- ... these acts of violence arent just fights and shootings; they are planned mass murders in our high schools. No more poignant example brings into focus the question of individual freedom and safety for the school community. Does individual freedom mean that students can bring whatever they want, including weapons, to school? Does safety of the school community mean that students must be searched or go through metal detectors every time they enter a school building? How do these questions apply to schools like Bishop Eustace where these extreme forms of ...

- 187: Dress Codes In Public Schools
- ... down some of the everyday problems that schools have today. A dress code in public schooling would be a good idea because it would reduce violence, eliminate the problem of wearing hats or jackets in school, and make school more of an academic atmosphere, and less of a social one. In this paper, I will discuss why a dress code would be a good thing for public schools to have. A dress code would eliminate many problems including violence that occurs everyday in school. For example, if a simple shirt and tie with dress pants were worn by boys, and some type of skirt or dress for girls, baggy clothing would be eliminated which could hide weapons such ...

These students have families that they need to support. I know, because I am a family man who has returned to school. I wish to finish my degree at the Rochester Institute of Technology.

- 189: Mandatory Physical Education I
- Current high school students are becoming fatter, slower, and less motivated than past students. Many of these young people would prefer to be sitting passively in front of the television rather than to do something physically active. Most high school students believe they do not have sufficient time, opportunity or guidance to participate in physical activities. The ideal place in which students would be able to find adequate time, opportunity and guidance are in the high schools themselves. Politicians and educators responsible for the mandatory physical education program at the junior high school levels (grades eight to ten) should be applauded for this, but frowned upon for not enforcing it on senior high school students (grades 11 and 12). Physical Education is defined as the process of ...
