Bates used her position as president of a local Arkansas branch of the NAACP to strategically destroy the segregated school system.

This fight
Parents of the nine African American students contacted Daisy Bates who was the local leader of the NAACP, owned, and ran the State Press one of the town’s newspapers. The parents were scared of violence and asked her for advice on what to do. The parents were not scared for violence towards them but against their children attending the school.

different environment with the same material. I would like to focus on the attitude each professor had towards the student and the way the material was thought. Mrs. Camilla Crouch was my AP Anatomy and Physiology teacher at Skyline High School. She had a great relationship with the students because she knew all of us since freshman year. Our high school had clusters, and the students who took A&P were usually from the advance science cluster. Mrs. Crouch was the director of our cluster; Mrs. Crouch

Personality type plays a large role in how a student behaves in the classroom and interacts with his/her fellow students and teachers. Identifying personality types in our classroom can help us to avoid misbehavior problems before they begin or once started help us to better understand the student and to help that student make better choices in the future.

starting to focus on college, there is a drive to do well in all areas of their character to boost the appearance of their college application. Students usually try to excel on the SATs, maintain a high GPA, and involve themselves in extracurricular activities in order to become the well-rounded, “renaissance man” or woman that colleges can’t surpass. Students understand that it is important to try their best in everything that they do, but should a three-hour, multiple choice test be a deciding factor

As Christians we need to be aware of the many things that technology has to offer us so that our students do not fall into satin's pitfall. If technology is used in the right ways, it can enhance a student's learning. The internet offers many forms of media that "combine text, audio, visual, graphic and self-motivated elements" (Bates 40). These multiple forms of media present knowledge

Her parents answer after two hours and the student is too embarrassed to go back to class. Alvarez also explains how boys wear trousers that sag and show their
According to Marcia J. Bates information behaviour “is the currently preferred term used to describe the many ways in which human beings interact with information, in particular, the ways in which people seek and utilize information. The broad history of research on information seeking behaviour over the last 50-60 years is reviewed, major landmarks are identified, and current directions in research are discussed” (Bates, 2010, 2381). Two of the most well known theorists of information behaviour
The school is prioritizing a male’s education over a female because she happens to be showing more skin. “When a school takes the decision to police female students’ bodies while turning a blind eye to boy’s behavior, it sets up a lifelong assumption that sexual violence is inevitable and victims are partially responsible” (Bates).

Critical Review of Battleground 	In Battleground, Stephen Bates narrates the account of a court case in a small Tennessee town. The court case started with a mother helping her child with a reading assignment. This mother could not believe what she was reading. This mother’s name was Vicki Frost, who was a home keeper. Frost went to the school and told the principal what she thought about the books. She believed that the books went against everything she taught her children. She believed Satan
Violence It’s easy for sexual harassment and relationship violence to be dismissed as only “adult” issues. On the contrary, these problems have proven to be pervasive in both junior and senior high schools. Although statistics show that “nearly half of students are sexually harassed in school” (Koebler, 2011), sexual harassment and dating violence are not being appropriately addressed in schools and are in essence, being shoved under the table. These are not fleeting issues, because sexual harassment and
Recently, students have come together on social media to protest their school 's dress codes. There are thousands of stories all over the internet of teens being shamed, oppressed, and embarrassed by school staff for their clothing.
