For example: The boy often says things like, "That's stupid," "I don't like that," "I shouldn't have to do that," and, "I never liked math anyway."

Have I punctuated this example sentence properly, or does it need to be corrected in some manner? Please tell me the grammar rule if you know it.

""I am a teacher and I work closely with one other teacher in particular. She is new to our school this year. We work in an annexe which we share with three other teachers in our department. We have no head of department and most teachers in the school find our administration to be chaotic and unreliable. The teacher whom I refer too talks of her last school in a highly unprofessional manner. She is always late to work and leaves the minute the bell goes at the end of the day. Yesterday another collegue and I heard her speaking to a small group of Grade Nine students. she told them that one of their peers was"stuipid" and a "total retard." We were just outside her room, so we heard her quite clearly. What should we do?""

I'm doing X-Ray Technician, but now the school says that they CAN'T give no more A.S Degree because the ACC said that the school can't be aloud (some problems), and is hard for me to transfer the credits to another school. But I want to know what is the difference between Certification and AS degree. Would it be the same? Does the starting pay/wage be the same when I graduate and start working? Can I get a good job? How much is the pay for a limited X-Ray Tech?

Diploma vs. A.S degree?

My teacher always likes to give out these GIGANTIC word searches and ever since I can remember I have always been very bad at them. Even the simplest of word searches takes me hours.

My teacher uses a site called edhelper.com to get these word searches, so is there anyway I can get the answer key or something to help me out? At the top corner of the page it says, Key #1 636845 if this helps.
Or if anyone is willing to, I'll scan the word search and can you find the words for me? xDD

I also tend to lose my anger easily if I can't find words and so far I'm getting very angry at this word search...

Also note, I did explain to my teacher that I have difficulty with word searches but she said anyone can do them. Yeah, anyone can do them, if they have the patience. x_x

The argument whether uniforms should be allowed in school has been debated over the last few decades. By implementing a uniform policy within schools help the school systems. School uniforms would not only help unruly classrooms, but also treats students as a whole and teachers would see students as equal from appearance.
