1)Negative assertion: In 1974 court ordered busing wasn"t the only strategy that could have desegregated Boston"s public schools. Other options would be to give other options and more choices.

Year Round Schooling (With Medium-Length breaks periodically)
More curriculum is covered because there is less time spent reviewing the learning lost over the three month summer vacation, and learning time can be creatively used to incorporate seasonal learning. (
Should homework be banned in middle and elementary schools?

chess sucks
However stimulatory chess may be, and I do forcuncuate that it is a brilliant game, it is not practical. Have you ever sat down with a friend and say, "Hey! We have a couple minutes, lets play some chess! I'll be white!" Despite the racial puns that could be inserted, chess is not practical unless you have a lot of time and the skill to do so. I am a novice at chess, my rear is pulinificated every time I play somebody, but most of the time we just get bored and play some football. So although ch...

Affirmative assertion: In 1974 court ordered busing was the only strategy that could have desegregated Boston's public schools.

Affirmative assertion: To create a desegregated school system; a judge should be able to tell parents where their children must attend sc...

School kills creativity
Students think that once they come to school that all their creative juices have to stop working, but that doe not need to be the case. They can express the creativity in different ways, such as a creative writing class or a group project where everyone in the group can put their own spin on the topic.

British Teachers Often Don't Afford Students The Credit Of Intelligence
I am a 13 year-old with a rather uncommon disorder named Aspergers Syndrome, this means that I am able to challenge the modern psyche of children are inferior to adults, which some people take for granted and have never thought to challenge. Essentially, even when it isn't a smart thing to do, my brain makes me say things to teachers which I regret later. I first truly realised the extent...
