Answer 1

I believe that all students need success in school. This doesn't mean they all need A's, but they all need to be celebrated for their own successes. A 60% to some is just as important as a 95% to others!

Answer 2

I believe the educational system along with the rest of the world is headed straight to_____!

I believe students have no respect for teachers or administrators due to the lack of discipline they are allowed to administer.

I believe students are different now than they were in the 1950's, ect., so the "I'm the teacher and you better listen to me" approach no longer works.

I believe teachers need to learn to communicate with each student, not the class.

I believe teachers can still make a difference in the life of each and every student if they learn to communicate with the students of today's world.
