Education & Reference - 11 August 2007

I am going to high school this year.
We have lockers that we all get.
But I have heard that in our high school...your locker is everyone elses, because anyone can break into any ones locker and steel stuff, and people do!
So should I get a backpack and carry it around with me at all times. (whitch we are alowed to do)
or
Should I just empty my stuff into my locker and go to my locker threw out the day and get the stuff I need at that time and risk getting books and stuff stolen.
or
should I keep my back pack with me at times but just drop off my books at my locker when I dont need them, because they are heavy and they will most likely hurt my back if i carry them all day.

Any storys you can share or perosnal experience or advice whould be helful.

thanks!

I have applications with the Duval, St. John's, and Clay County School Systems. I have had a few interviews but no job offers. I am a 52 yr old male. My pre-internships went very well, but my internship wasn't great. I don't think my directing teacher liked me. I graduated with a 3.51 GPA. The reason I believe I am being blackballed is because of the lack of interviews, especially with St. John's and Clay County Schools. This has been a nightmare. When I started to college I was told there was a teacher shortage and I wouldn't have trouble finding a teaching position.

Why is it that PhD programs are so inaccessable for working adults? I was in one but they had all of their classes and professors office hours during the work day amd even at as a part-time student I was required to read over 2,000 pages a week (yes, per week, and that didn't count the reading for the term's project). A friend of mine decided to do it full-time and he is now 12 years down the road and he still doesn't have his. This is stupid and unfair. I would love to pursue a PhD in a meaningful program but haven't been able to find anything anywhere reasonable. I already have three masters degrees and a dozen years teaching at the collegiate level. What am I to do?

I want to go to Spelman College and major in journalism (they don't have it as a major, but i can make it one). While I'm there, I want to study education (i want to tutor children and model as a side job once i'm out of college). I also want to study psychology and further my studies in spanish and french. That is 5 different courses i plan on taking. Then, once i get my bachelor's in journalism from spelman, i want to go to new york university and get my master's degree in my major which would be magazine writing. i would also like to get a certificate in public relations and get my bachelor's in psychology there as well. lastly, i would like to get a certificate in magazine publishing. That is 4 courses i would be taking there. Is that enough courses for NYU, and do these classes sound about right because i want to be a model/writer/ tutor? I want to be in public relations writing or write for a magazine like CosmoGirl. Thank you and God bless!

Why is it that teachers are not eligible to receive Social Security? I worked for twenty years before I became a teacher and now I learn that all of those contributions I made to SS are useless to me because teachers can't receive SS benefits. And to add to this, I teach at a private university in the evenings, am still required to contribute to social security even though they tell me I can't recevie any benefits. If I've contributed, why can't I receive benefits? If I can't receive benefits, why am I still required to contribute? It doesn't make sense to me.

I'm looking to become a social worker and wanted to know a few things like:
1) what degree would I pursue
2) how long did it take you to finish
3) Is it a pretty easy degree to get for someone who isn't so book smart
4) Are you happy with it
5) what areas could I go with this degree
6) How much did college cost you

I'm looking for a legit responsible organization that knows what they are talking about with regards to teaching in China, and the requirements. So many dodgy companies out there tell me I don't need any qualifications to teach abroad in China. Can you please recommend a good company with an excellent reputation that I could apply to?

I was born in California and lived there most of my life. In fact, I attended school there from preschool and all the way to 10th grade. My family decided to move to Texas during August/September 2006. I am now attending a high school in Texas in which I will complete my last two years of high school. On July I finished my Junior year in Northwest High School and ready to be a Senior. I was wondering if I am still considered a California resident or if I am now a Texas resident since I have been living there for about one year. Keep in consideration that my mom still lives in California though. When applying for college, which one will I be considered? However, I might have to pay out of state tuition if I am no longer considered a California resident anymore. Also, it will be a lot when applying for any any UC. Does one turn a resident of the state in one or two years? If it is two years, am I safe? Will I be paying in state tuition? Thanks!

All 12 graders in high school would be assigned an apprentice position in the field of their choice leading to the career they've chosen. They could receive either full or half the minimum wage. Progress monitored by the school district. This should discourage drop outs and it would increase their self asteem and prepared them for the future. What do you think?
