Students have voices to!

Obama faces hard questions and the students want answers! Obama is faced with real life questions by young students who went their to hear a "because" or a "this is why" to their questions. Obama is most certaintly a target in this questioner conversation but respectfully answers their questions with what he feels is the correct answer.

Teacher Interview : Mrs. Stanfield.

For my teacher interview I interviewed Mrs. Stanfield. I asked her questions on the topic of education and her opinions. Mrs. Stanfield is not only a great teacher but an excellent person as well. She feels our economy is at its worst and is affecting our student’s education greatly. Mrs. Stanfield would love to make a greater and stronger impact on her student’s lives if they allow her to. Mrs. Stanfield not only encourages her students to fully focus on their education but to also remember to spend time with their family and friends and to never get to busy to forget who you are. Interview: 1.In your perspective what is the purpose of teaching? To teach the students not only academic skills, but real life skills as well. 2.What is the best way for a student to learn? It depends on the student…some learn better with hands on activities and some learn better with just notes. 3.What do you think is a reason for a student to go to school besides to get an education? To learn social skills, the students need to learn how to interact with a variety of people. 4.What class do you think should be added here that is not offered? A class on real life applications, how to write a check, budget for a month, and how to look for jobs. 5.What is one thing that you experienced in your high school years that you feel our school is missing out on? Food week, we had one week where clubs would bring food from different food from different places off campus and sell it to the students. 6.Do you feel that as a teacher you make a small or big impact on students lives? Some students I make a big Impact if they allow me to, if not then it’s a small impact. 7.Do you feel that our economy failure is affecting student’s education? Yes! Many parents can’t afford food or school supplies. Some students have focused on getting a job instead of school. 8.Do you feel that our schools sanitation is at its best and is always kept clean? No, due to budget cuts the campus is more dirty! 9.Do you consider a D as a passing grade? No, a D gives students credit. If the student wants to take the next class a student needs to have a C or higher. 10.What’s the best advice you can give a senior going off to college? Live Life! Focus on getting good grades, but don’t forget who your friends and family are. Be involved with the campus.
