    Introduction Freeman-Brown Preparatory School, formerly known as Freeman-Brown Private School, is a for-profit school with multiple campuses that experienced mismanagement and financial difficulties leading to multiple campus closures. The poor management as a result of not practicing an open system or a complex adaptive system contributed to socially irresponsible handling of campus closure, thus leaving stakeholders in the dark and scrambling with minimal options after the last-minute closure. Future success of the school is dependent on proper planning, organizing, leading, and controlling by the school facilitators. Freeman-Brown Preparatory School failed its stakeholders; the students, parents, and staff of the Staunton Campus but it

    Aside from what was said before, it does not take even Einstein himself to figure out that what Ahmed had brought to class had no physical representation of something seen hazardous by mankind, yet Ahmed’s teacher had the guts to claim that what Ahmed brought in was the legitimate representation of a bomb. As you can see from the picture shown above, Ahmed brought in had no explosives attached; it was presented in a metal case and contained only circuits. Even someone who is inexperienced can determine that multiple circuits can only make a spark and not an explosion. This questions the hiring system for teachers in schools like this. Someone this inexperienced should not partake in the education system.

  • Middle School Transition Paper

    I hope that the assumption that the middle schools of Blount County are under-performing is not being made based solely on a comparison with the high schools ' performance and the elementary school 's performance. That would be an unfair and inaccurate assumption if that were the case. The loss of achievement associated with school-to-school transitions from elementary school to middle school and middle school to high school is a well documented occurrence. Studies (Alspaugh,1998 & Rosenblatt, 2008) have found a statistically significant achievement loss associated with the transition from elementary school to middle school at the 6th grade as compared with K-8 schools that did not have a school-to-school transition at 6th grade.
