The Growing Threats to School Safety
Every child who walks into a classroom deserves to feel safe. Safety is not a privilege—it is a fundamental right. Yet, for too many students, the school environment has become a source of fear rather than learning and growth. From bullying and discrimination to physical violence and inadequate infrastructure, unsafe schools compromise not only education but also the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of students. Ensuring that schools are safe is one of the most important responsibilities society holds, as it directly impacts the next generation’s ability to learn, dream, and succeed.

It Is Time to Insist on High-Quality Teacher Training
Despite significant advancements in our understanding of effective teaching and how children learn, historically, very few instructors have had access to the knowledge they need to teach effectively. This situation resulted from a previous belief that teachers only needed to know how to follow the book and that schools could be run through top-down management. Instead of being viewed as professionals with the knowledge and experience to make wise decisions about teaching and learning, teachers were regarded like semiskilled workers, given extremely organized jobs, and viewed as technicians who could be given very little preparation. We discovered that persistent beliefs that divert attention from the effort required to enhance teacher preparation frequently thwart attempts to address these issues. The misconceptions that "anyone can teach" and "teacher education makes no difference" are two of the most damaging.

Why Should Schools Address Student Health?
The central mission of schools has traditionally been the intellectual development of children and adolescents. However, education cannot be separated from health. A growing body of evidence demonstrates that students' physical, mental, and social well-being are intimately connected to their ability to learn, engage, and thrive. If schools ignore student health, they risk undermining academic performance, increasing absenteeism, exacerbating inequities, and compromising long-term life outcomes. Conversely, when schools actively promote health, they create conditions in which students are more likely to succeed academically, socially, and emotionally. This essay examines why schools should address student health, drawing from educational research, public health evidence, policy frameworks, and practical considerations. It will analyze the connections between health and learning, explore the specific areas of student health schools can influence, consider the equity implications, discuss long-term societal benefits, and highlight successful models of school-based health promotion.

Scientifically Based Research On Educational Leadership
Over the past century, a variety of concepts that serve to focus practice have molded perceptions of school administrators. The older managerial approach that views the school as a system of production still exists, even though the behavioral sciences picture that shaped preparation curriculum following World War II has lost its appeal. This viewpoint can be seen in the contemporary demands for performance evaluation and measurement as well as the belief that changing teaching methods can enhance student learning. This perspective, however, ignores how intricate schools are and how they are nested inside bigger organizations.

The Study on Small Schools and Small Learning Communities
Small learning communities (SLCs) have been shown to benefit both teachers and students, according to a number of publications. They have contributed to the development of SLCs as a method of school improvement that seems to reduce the achievement gap between students from various ethnic origins while simultaneously raising student achievement. Despite their contributions to our knowledge of the SLC approach's potential, these papers raise the question of what particular instructional, curricular, and organizational practices result in these intended outcomes. In response, the published research and documentation findings that answer this question are compiled in this paper.

How Higher Education Can Address The Public Interest
Currently, America encounters several challenges that threaten to limit access to higher education opportunities. I characterize these challenges as two types of deficits confronting this nation: an opportunity deficit and a learning deficit. I will clarify the meaning of those terms later; however, it is important to note from the outset that this paper is motivated by a desire for America to effectively address the challenges it encounters. I seek an expansion of its commitment to higher education. By maintaining accessibility to opportunities for all Americans. By maintaining affordability in higher education. Is that an excessively high wall to ascend? It is highly unlikely. Please allow me to elaborate.

Collective Commitment to View Civic Learning as a Common Purpose of Higher Education
It is old news that students go to college primarily to get a job. The data are clear that this is the overwhelming reason why applicants and their parents are willing to pay escalating undergraduate tuition, even at small liberal arts colleges. Both students and their parents want higher education to serve as an individual enabler — to enable a graduate to get a job, to earn money, and, as a result, to have a happy life.
