Recommended: Diversity in classrooms

There are benefits and challenges for an open enrollment school. Two benefits that come to mind is an open door policy where all is welcome. This leads to my second benefit, the potential to have a very diverse school setting. One challenge that comes to mind is the distance between school and home. I think of open enrollment like an open door policy. An open door policy is welcoming, gives a sense of security and is friendly. This policy welcomes all people no matter where they live, their race, culture, religion or level of academics. There is a sense of security in that knowing who you are will not come in between your education. Friendliness is an attractive characteristic and people want to be around it. To me an open enrollment policy

    The reason why I believe this is because not all students receive the chance to receive the opportunity to have a proper education, may not have to proper resources to complete their assignments, need extra help to understand the material and might have to help at home so they might not be able to attend school. I can also see it as a source of freedom, because the students who do receive the chance to go to school can learn the necessary skills to excel in the career they have decided to do throughout the rest of their life. The education, abilities and experiences that these students receive when they attend school will increase the level of human capital necessary for their future career. “Also, higher education relies on "customer-input technology" — that is, who you are friends with in school will definitely influence your education — both in the classroom and throughout your life as you call upon the networks of fellow alumni and the prestige of your institution in your work and private life. Having smart, successful fellow students not only makes your education more stimulating, it also links you to a group who will be valuable throughout life” (Will,

    Those who oppose open enrollment argue that remedial education has many fallbacks, including the problem that remedial education costs the state too much money and that remedial education devalues the college degree. Bruno V. Manno, a former United States Assistant Secretary of Education for Policy Training, states that most states with community colleges acquire a large remediation cost from the taxpayers and also those who pay to attend college.

    In the sense of utilitarianism this outcome would be in consideration of the greater good for the entire population. Also, by having more affordable education it would not only benefit the parents who continue to support their children, but would give those who are less fortunate an opportunity to learn and grow as an intellectual. Furthermore, it provides a higher percentage of the population a chance to obtain a higher form of education which would expand the spectrum of professions that are current. For instance, as of now only 65.9% of graduating high school students are enrolled into college the following school

  • Open Campus Policy

    895 Words  | 2 Pages

    Students, you, as well as I, have always felt the strain of limitations brought upon you this and past school years. These past years, the school board has been closing students’ ability to do almost what they please to an oppressive detention in which you cannot even walk the hallways to get a sip of water. How many times have you or heard that someone has been given a detention for just walking around the halls? How many times have you been hassled for trying to go to your car and sent back into the school by a so called “rent-a-cop” and a new enforcer cop? All of these and more are related to the idea of a closed campus. I, on the other hand, am on the behalf of an open campus. An open campus gives the student more freedom and responsibility to make the right decisions. As opposition, the closed campus concept would argue that not all or any of the students should receive such trustworthiness from the school. I think that not all but a select group of students should have the open campus opportunity. Another matter with open campus is money issues in many areas in which I will discuss.

  • Open Door Policy

    The Open Door Policy was established between the United States, and China was established in 1899. It was created to protect the equal trading privileges that many other countries had with China, and also China's territorial integrity. The policy was distributed in the form of a circular to Great Britain, Italy, France, Russia, and Germany by the U.S. Secretary of State John Hay. Each of these countries were given a "sphere" that they influenced, and were responsible for. This statement was most well accepted in the United States, and is often considered to be a milestone when it comes to American foreign policy in Asia. The idea that all countries should have equal access to all of China's ports was first introduced in the Anglo-Chinese,

  • Good Neighbor Policy

    Roosevelt made the decision to formalize a policy started by Herbert Hoover by which the United Sates rejected the right to intervene militarily in the internal affairs of Latin American countries (Foner 853). Moreover, this Good Neighbor Policy, had mixed results. The United States withdrew its troops from Haiti and Nicaragua during the 1930s (Foner 853). What is more, Roosevelt accepted Cuba’s repeal of the Platt Amendment, which permitted American military interventions on that island. These steps offered an overdue recognition of the sovereignty of American neighbors (Foner 853). On the other hand, while Roosevelt criticized wealthy businessmen at home, like previous presidents he was left feeling uncomfortable and dealing with undemocratic governments friendly to American business interests abroad (Foner 853). Equally important, the United States extended support to dictators with the likes of Anastasio Somoza in Nicaragua, Rafael Trujillo Molina in the Dominican Republic, and Fulgencio Batista in Cuba (Foner 853). However, in the 1930s the international crisis deepened, the Roosevelt administration had taken steps to counter German influence in Latin

  • America's Open Door Policy

    The Open Door Policy is a term in outside issues at first used to allude to the United States strategy in the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century sketched out in Secretary of State John Hay's Open Door Note, dispatched in 1899 to his European partners. The arrangement proposed to keep China open to exchange with all nations on an equivalent premise; hence, no global force might have aggregate control of the nation. The strategy called upon outside forces, inside their effective reaches, to shun meddling with any bargain port or any vested enthusiasm, to allow Chinese powers to gather levies on an equivalent support, and to show no favors to their own particular nationals in the matter of harbor duty or railroad charges.

    Some of the advantages to this new public school choice option include: offers a way out of a low performing school, supports educational innovation because it supports alternatives to the traditional school day, school choice can match child and parents needs thus parents will be involved and more committed to the school and their child’s learning experience. (O’Neil, 1996) There are some restrictions when one thinks about the public school choice option. Restrictions include claims that all schools are too crowded, short windows of opportunity for parents to exercise choice, when parent can choose if they want to use school choice or not, and outright restrictions on which schools can participate in public school choice program. (Snell, 2002) Other disadvantages include: create inequalities by taking the more desirable students, fewer opportunities to learn from students of different backgrounds, and changes the focus from education for the public good to education for the private good. Education is no longer being seen as providing ‘some common experience in common se...

While the University of Arizona is one out of the many colleges and universities that exist during this era of growing technology, as a future incoming student to the University of Arizona, I hope that my words and opinion will be considered for adopting an alternative policy rather than the “zero-tolerance” policy.

    Secondly, if a student has a bad situation at home, it can allow the student to get away. Having free tuition would allow students to stay in the college dorms. It could help them stay out of trouble or harmful environment. College campuses allow many more resources that could be used positively. Computer labs, English and math workshops, libraries, and teacher's office hours are all very important things that every student should be allowed to use.

  • Zero Tolerance Policy

    The zero-tolerance policy gives schools organizational structure and a safe environment which is needed to promote learning. Creating policies that provide safety for all students is the responsibility of school officials and administrators. Adopting the zero-tolerance policies for schools will deter students from breaking rules that can harm them or others while in school. Although all students can not be deterred from causing harm the zero-tolerance policy sends a message that if students decide to break any of the rules consequences will be faced. Some parents may not agree to the consequences placed upon their kids for breaking these rules, however it is the duty of the school administrators and staff to keep students from being harmed

  • Why Even Close The Door Analysis

    This section will introduce ideas around the politics of migration and open borders, in order to lead us into my critical analysis of migration, the brain drain, and what policies can be created for the best possible outcome. As previously mentioned, brain drain is the only possible clause to which immigration can be restricted. However, only if it causes deleterious effects to the poor nation is it acceptable as a restrictive cause. Nevertheless, restrictive immigration goes against fundamental basic human liberties in which a person has the right to leave one country and go to another. I return to develop the libertarian aspects that advocate for open borders based on Carens understanding of Nozick’s work. Nozick

    The advantages of attending a neighborhood school is that the parents of the multicultural students will have easy access to the school. In many instances, the parents are provided with the opportunity to walk their students to schools. This will provide the parents with an opportunity to talk with the teacher or just have a nice school breakfast with their child. This access to the school will also provide the parents with an opportunity to become actively involved in school programs such as Parent Teacher Association Meetings or student performances.
