Classroom Chairs Online

Crenshaw Middle School teacher John Huntsman (John Huntsman) hopes to see students online like he sees them in a classroom: stand upright.

However, this is not the case. At that time, the Guangzhou School District temporarily migrated to distance learning in December and January, respectively, in order to anticipate a surge in COVID-19 cases after the holidays.

Huntsman said: "They will lie on the sofa, bed or floor." He has been teaching for 16 years, and now helps struggling readers through the federally funded Title I program. "This is not a good posture for learning."

He learned that many students do not have tables at home. To him, it seemed simple.

Huntsman bought some wood, fiberboard, and construction screws from a local home improvement store and built what he called a basic desk, which measures about 2 feet 2 feet, which is more than 2 feet tall. It takes about 45 minutes to make each table, and he can only make three to four tables at a time.

With the help of Crenshaw principal Robert Crone and Crone’s truck, Huntsman has delivered 11 desks in the past month. As news between teachers and families continues to spread, other Guangzhou students are making more works.

He said: "This is a crazy time, especially for children." "If there is a way to simplify crazy behaviors such as tables, then I will do it."

Seventh grader Matthew Bair likes his new table. He has been sharing the kitchen table with his fifth-grade brother.

Matthew's mother Tiffany Bair said: "On Google Meets, the voice is too loud and it's too distracting."

Tiffany said that they put the table in Matthew's room, which is the quietest place in the house. He not only uses it for school homework, but also plays board games and even eats with his 13-year-old sister. 

Tiffany said: "He always wanted to have lunch there because it was his own table." He plans to let Matthew study at home this school year. "It means a lot to him, and his teacher surpassed everything."

Brandy Goodwin said that her seventh-grade daughter Bailey Bond has also been using her desk.

Goodwin said: "She uses it as a desk, dressing table, art table, and anything else." "She likes it, and using it now is more important than anything else."

Bailey is going to a face-to-face class next week. She has been cooking in the kitchen with her sixth-grade brother and mother who is in class. Brandi says the desk is helpful because Bailey doesn't have to put things away every day like on the kitchen table.

Crenshaw principal, Crone, said Huntsman's generosity is a powerful example of the dedication shown by school teachers and staff since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic. He said the staff conducted home visits to check on students, had one-on-one meetings with parents to help solve technical problems, and volunteers provided food to the family in addition to the meals provided to students on school days.

Krone said: "Anything we can do can help our children."

Huntsman, who has always provided desks for free, is accepting donations to help him purchase materials. He said that the production cost of each desk is at least $12. He is also seeking funding from Home Depot, and some of his colleagues have voluntarily purchased chairs and tables and donated materials.

You can make a donation to the Crenshaw academic booster of the CSE Federal Credit Union, or you can make a donation through Venmo@Susan-Scheetz-1, and then transfer the funds to the booster’s bank account.

Members of the North Carolina State Board of Education met in Raleigh this week. They chose to ignore the growing concerns about the academic progress of the state public school system, and instead spent hours arguing about the state’s social studies courses on liberalism and social justice issues. The proposed changes. Metaphorically speaking, they are busy rearranging the recliner on the recliner.

This broken ship is a statewide public school system that has almost come to a halt in the past 9 months. For fear of spreading the Covid-19 virus, most students are partially or completely restricted from attending in-person classes.

Across the country, the public school system has noticed that interference caused by the virus pandemic has led to a decline in subject retention and academic performance.

Two states are very public about academic decline. Reports from Texas and Maryland show that failure rates have increased by 25% due to interruptions in classroom participation.

Contrary to these and other states that have disclosed statewide academic achievement data, North Carolina's education leaders proved last week that they were not interested in this issue. In fact, there is no indication that the state’s Department of Public Education (DPI) or the State Board of Education has attempted to aggregate information from local school committees for public consideration.

Some North Carolina school systems are very transparent, such as the Wilson County School System, which released data in early December, showing that 46% of students in grades 3-12 who participated in virtual learning had at least one class. . Attempts to obtain similar information from the Carteret County school system were unsuccessful. This should be the concern of parents and taxpayers in all county public schools.

Information about academic achievement is a public issue, and public information about this data should be shared among school districts on a regular basis and aggregated statewide by the Department of Public Education and the State Board of Education. With these data, the state legislature and DPI can make plans, including funding, to provide remedial services for students to advance to the next grade. However, the State Assembly did not consider such action necessary.

The Board of Education did not discuss the most pressing issues for parents, students, and teachers across the state, how to return to the classroom or what measures can be taken to remedy the apparent decline in academic performance. Instead, they argued for hours on establishing new social research issues. standard. Disputes revolve around terms such as "systematic racism", "systematic discrimination" and "competitive narratives of historical developments in the United States and North Carolina, describing instructions on race, women, tribe, identity, ability, and ability, respectively" . Religious groups. "

These terms and instructions are part of a study to redesign the state’s social studies curriculum. The study began two years ago and is now subject to a final vote by the Board of Education and will be implemented next fall. Republican board members, including Governor Mark Robinson, opposed accepting these changes. The final vote is expected at the next board meeting in February.

Ironically, the state school board is so concerned about the "systematic" issues of race, gender, and gender that it completely ignores the loss of "systematic" educational services and the resulting "systematic" leadership of the state. The failure of human and labor education.

The NC General Assembly must take immediate action. Legislators must step in and demand transparency of taxpayer data and require better leadership of the state’s education system. Otherwise, students who are ill-prepared for the future will face greater "systematic" failures.

Due to the virus pandemic, it seems that good editors’ negative comments on our school board are based on the need for distance learning. Few people would think that distance learning is equivalent to classroom learning. However, the distance between classroom learning and distance learning must be measured from the perspective of preventing communication, so as to reduce the harm to our students and their families. A good editor, he earlier called for relaxation of restrictions to benefit the industry, but at the time he did not consider any danger to our students and teaching staff. Criticize any actions taken by the governor to stop the trend while not making any positive contributions. Since then, we have experienced the spread of the disease, so strict control must continue. Hopefully, once the virus is brought under control, our students will be able to rebound and return to school full-time. This is everything that our school council wants. For our students, this is just the best. I am confident that our school board and staff will do their best to do this.

Why does the Bank of England in the world worry about returning to school? Your child can stay at home, fail, fall behind, etc., while BOE, teachers, etc. can continue to receive salary. They did not give up anything. They are still spending money, like falling from the sky. What are BOE's incentive measures? From the appearance, and listen to their conversations, let your children stay at home to learn the actual construction and the cost of learning is higher, so they need more funds. The press secretary of the new government I heard said more than once in numerous press conferences. We need more funds to get the children back to school. We need more funds to ensure their safety. We need more funds to provide more protection to prevent covid. Need more funds! In the past year, what has been used for all the funds used for school operations? The school has been closed for a whole year now, right? Where did that money go?

Among 23 Colorado artists in Montrose, their works were selected by

The press release stated that the organization was frustrated with mocking older birthday card choices, and the organization once again made birthday card shopping fun. The press release stated that these "age-positive" cards designed by Colorado artists reflect the true happiness of the elderly.

"Changing the narrative challenges many birthday cards' notions that as they grow older, older people become weak, deaf, forgetful and crabbing.

According to traditional cards, we should be unhappy with aging and admit that getting old means going downhill. For the sake of humor, some cards depict older people as curludgeons sitting on benches, idiots sitting on wheelchairs, bloated grandparents, or lecherous elderly people. However, age discrimination is not very interesting, but harmful. "

"It's time to celebrate age," said Janine Vandenberg, a Delta County resident and director of the organization.
