Premium Member The Fish from Differing Schools of Thought
In one big ocean were many schools of fish. Most of them were nice in their own ways, but this is the story of two types of schools of fish very different in their ways of thinking. One school of fish was fond of mesmerizing...

Premium Member Sex Education In Schools
Think I'll write something uplifting

About flowers and the birds and the bees

When I was in school way back when

Sex talk created much unease

It wasn't a subject taught in schools

When I was a young whipper snapper

Attended school very many years back

After prohibition and the flappers

Us guys...

Native American Boarding Schools
shocked, as hair cut short
buckskins burned
praying, 
in the darkness for rescue
all our gods forsaking us

pics of Him in pain
Teacher demanded belief
after all
somehow
died for our sins

what is sin?
A bright girl asks
later teach replies

now forgetting gods
of earth and fire 
and dressed up in 
lies of white man

kind...

We Need God Back Into Our Schools
We Need God Back Into Our Schools!

There are some trying to remove God from this nation!
They do is under; “a church and state separation.”

For many years,  God was taught in our schools!
Until the Supreme Court took it away, with it’s rules!

As so many young...

Bullying In Schools By Ulyssa Vinarta 8th Grade
I go to school
and you are there thinking you're so cool.
You trapped menacing words in my mind
being so unkind.

What did I do wrong?
Why are you picking on me for so long?
Is it my hair?
Is it what I wear?

You think it's all a game
but bullying is...

St Johns Schools
Sprouted from the depth and leapt for the height
Tremendous epoch-making in sight

Just like a raw gem that transforms on motion
Our imaginations are like the ocean
Her noble mind in noble thoughts we see
Now, see hordes of hospitality over the fee
Sons and daughters home-like honied  hive

Sweet...

Zero Tolerance In Schools
Zero Tolerance at Schools

By Elton Camp

It began with a federal law about bringing guns to school
That offenders must be expelled was the ironclad rule

Then, unwisely, local officials the policy vastly expanded
For drugs, aggression, and other things, expulsion demanded

The intention behind these regulations may have been...

Two Schools
I went to two schools in reality, 
But only had one in my mind, 
A school that assimilated and understood, 
A school that would not drive me blind. 

Daniels nursery was the best, 
In all ways apart from one, 
Because it accepted my difference, 
Respected...

The Box of Schools Conformity
A teacher steps in front of a class.
“Today we will be learning…”
Your bias?
Your inability to respect us?
The fact that you don’t want to be here?
Her mouth continues to move but I can’t zone back in.
Why do we attend class?
So we all think the same?
To never...

On Transferring Schools - New Blood
I find myself 
getting lost
within the concrete 
that is cold and cold 
resigned to white walls 
while the worth of my words 
are measured 
in glass flasks 
there is no soul here after all  
and I will soon grow 
used to the blank stares...

Premium Member Why Schools
Why schools?
We are not clear
WiseElder sighed
in desperate fear.

Why guns at school?
Where teachers try
and pine for Golden EcoRules.

We sacred pry to teach
cooperation
And in return
guns rape our secular market nation.

We strive to learn
not to waste life
what God has given
pedagogic grace love.

Why point automated guns
at schools for deep...

Premium Member Schools Have It Backwards
Kicking and hitting used to be unusual in a classroom.
In many classrooms it is same-oh-same-oh these days.
Icy screams that raise hair on your neck are becoming normal.
Sadly, parents are not in school to see what is happening.

They would be horrified at the behaviors we tolerate.
“You...

Residential Schools
Take Heed

It was said unto the elders that their homes would be secure
Had they only known what their children would endure

Take heed of all the decades of residential schools
Believe it if you will, the elders are not fools

Forcibly removed by a team of red and...

Cattle
They keep us turning down the halls like cattle 
Keep your eyes up
Face forward
No phones
Stay in routine
You’ve done this for so many years now
No distractions
Don’t look at the broken people next to you
Face forward
A girl at your school killed herself because of the bullying
Study hard
They...
