Confidence and being outgoing makes one popular in school. People who generate positive energy (they love life) attract people the way honey attracts bees. In short people who are themselves earn respect from peers.\nWhat you can do to make friends is take up various new activities in school, get involved..have fun, be confident.. make the most of your young years. You will miss it!!Trust me.. Don't worry about having many friends, a true friend is more significant. Look for a TRUE friend. She/he will always be there for you but others can be decieving. So be careful what you wish for.

Make an issue out of the single sex status of the other school.  Tell them you have ethical/religious issues with single sex schools and you will not stand for your son having to go to of those.  Not sure how to do that but it's food for thought.  Good luck.

I think this is a very good idea.  You need to start with the administration of the High School and the targeted elementary schools, if you want to get anywhere.  You also might be able to bring something like this into a local Boys & Girls Club.

Get rid of tenure, have a merit system for teachers, if they don't meet certain standards, they can be fired. Smaller class sizes, don't let the teachers, and their left wing union brainwash these kids with their liberalism.

Just like you would make new friends in school. \nBe approachable,\nBe friendly-say hello to your neighbours.\nAs you go to the gym/pub get to know people-introduce yourself. \nIn time you will have many aquaintances and maybe a few friends from those interactions.

You need to create a sense of unity among your staff/family feeling, combined by highly consistent discipline for student behaviors, cross-grade curriculum mapping by the staff as a team, close networking across grade levels/subjects and service levels/specialties, and staff and student ownership of schoolwide success in learning and behavior. Have fun!

Go to the nearest primary school and talk to the parents of some Kindergartners they may be able to tell you of some good preschools.  \n\nCall all of the preschools in your area and go to visit them and you will get a "vibe" while you are there as to what kind of a place it is. Good Luck : )

ur idea is really cool......it shall really increase the parent-child interaction.and doing so at school shall increase the parent-teacher-child interaction....which is really nice.\nwell the first thing u need to do is to get parents and children interested in the event.\nmake them hunt for something really worth searching for.....\ngive clues in the form of puzzles.......puzzles out of what they have to study, out of story books and novels(try the harry potter/lord of the rings).\nall the best and hope the event turns out to b a grand success

One way that could help is \nchecking with them on a possible\n3 things they like  for ideas and than \nyou can decide on what you'd like\nto give.Ideas: Children today could always\nuse a good book to read, and the trend\nis gift cards for the teenagers. \nOr you could even do something that teachs\nthem about the community, go site seeing\nart, threatre, swimming or it could even be a \ndisposible camera so they can have a \nmemory to add to their photo album. \nIn the end it is what you'd like to give\nthat matters.  It is from you.

well, little classes are better but i guess big classes could;\nallow for more diversity in the class with answers and questions.\ncost the school less payroll expense because one teacher can handle more students.\nallows the teacher to reach more students at one time.\n\nthose are some ideas, hope they help.

How about some beanbag chairs and a small couch.  We also added a story time theatre with teired steps to maximize space for many students.  Plus if the children are young include some toy characters from the books and even artifacts from different countries.  Plus posters of famous faces promoting reading is a great addition.

Food. Offer breakfast or something to have students meet their mentor over breakfast. Then have them pair up and do a scavenger hunt around the school (the first team to find all of the locations wins something). Make it a competetion and offer food...that always seems to get my students into it.

THE SCHOOL BOARD IN (name of your school, city)\n                                 TAKE HONOUR IN INVITING\n                             MR/MRS/MS (name of the guest)\n\n           to preside the events we are organising to celebrate\n                                     CHILDREN'S DAY\n\n                                   on (date, time, place)\n\nRSVP\n\n- of course you have to make it look special by printing it on special paper, using different fonts and sizes and a festive format and colour.\ngood luck

Think back to things you have done in your life. Some things maybe closely related to the school/subject, and some things not. Try to think of lessons, accomplishments, failures, friends, places, ...\n\nThen, try to think of some common thread for an introduction and closing.\n\nThen, write. Be yourself. If it fits in with what the school is looking for, it will help. If it doesn't fit, it won't help.
