1 { Semester Summary Tyler Pollock

2  Kids in inner-city schools don’t care about school.  It is useless to invest so much time into kids who don’t work hard.  Learning is the responsibility of students rather than the teacher.  Parents share responsibility in student success Major Initial Views

3  Teachers should form personal relationships with students.  People complain about schools but can’t fix them.  Bullying is a serious problem.  Blocked scheduling is a great solution to some problems. Vatterott and Woods

4  Students at Shortridge don’t care about school.  These kids won’t be academically successful.  Shortridge is a dark and uncomfortable place Pre-Shortridge

5  I hated being at Shortridge.  My student was a fun kid to talk to but didn’t excel in school.  When the teacher left, I wasn’t upset because I totally understood her thinking. Shortridge Experience

6  Soccer practice was the best part of my time at Shortridge.  I was able to connect with kids who would usually have ignored me in the halls.  Wasn’t unique to Shortridge.  Used as a way to relate to students in class. Soccer Practice

7  Discourse II is important in schools.  Discourse I must be followed. If not, there can be dire consequences for a school and community. Discourse

8  There are some very good students at Shortridge but not enough.  Parents should help with school. Then should kids be removed and put into a better environment if they can’t get help?  Where is the line of success for these students? Issues I’m Working On

9  The most important lesson I learned this year was that I need to keep my faith in the forefront when considering my beliefs about education. Life Lesson

10  There are kids in inner-city schools who care about school. But for many school is not a priority.  Parents should be responsible for student learning but sometimes this isn’t an option. Changed Views

11  I still don’t think that students who don’t care about school should receive extra attention.  Bullying is not a big deal. If it gets excessive, stop it but if not, let the kids deal with it.  Learning is the responsibility of the student. Teachers give all necessary information and a quality environment. Unchanged Views
