Hey there Monroe Woodbury, this is James Skoufis and what has Monroe-Woodbury

and public education meant to me? Really I would not be here without the education

I received at Monroe-Woodbury. For me and for so many people, public education is

the great equalizer. No matter where you come from or who you are, how much money

you have, who your family is, public education is supposed to be there for

every single child that is looking to better themselves and that's what it was

for me. So, thanks to the teachers and the staff that I had, the education I

received, the skills I learned and the friendships I made that remain to this

day, that's why I am who I am today and I'm incredibly grateful for it.

So, thanks for all that you do and thanks for all that you will continue to do for future

generations and all the kids that come through your door.

People here - staff and teachers - they're so kind they say good morning, how are you?

I go to advisory, I live the rest of my

day at school great. So then, in the morning before school and or after

school there are so many programs, including including drama, music, which I

like bassoon and saxophone because I play them, and especially after school there's

a lot of sport programs like football, baseball, basketball - probably any sport

you can think of, there's a Monroe- Woodbury team for it. Also wrestling,

there's another one that I thought of. And probably much more, so that's amazing

about Monroe-Woodbury. So I'm a very happy student that I am special, that I

get to be in the Monroe-Woodbury family. And that's pretty much it, so thank you!

I think there's a certain virtue in spending 12 years with people who

have really dedicated their lives to public service and teaching.

Hi Gabriel and Alex. What does a Monroe-Woodbury education mean to you?

G: It's important to me because all the teachers are really nice and

and they help us out with our work so that we can learn more and be more smart.

Do you enjoy going to school? Yes. Do you miss being in school? Yes.

Are you ready to go back to school? Yes. What's your favorite subject? G: Music. A: Recess [laughter]

Why is it your favorite subject, Gabriel?

Music is my favorite subject because I like playing the trombone a lot.

And I lke playing music on it.

And you enjoy recess, Alex. Why? Because it's fun!

Anything else you'd like to say?

I like math.

Hi I'm Emily Wang. The words that come to mind when I think about my

M-W education are growth, excellence and commitment. My M-W education has not only

helped to develop my academic abilities, but also my musical achievements.

Through classes like Chamber Orchestra and ELA, M-W has managed to give me a well-rounded

base upon which I can build a future on. I'm a very musically and academically

involved student who is very grateful for all the opportunities my M-W

education has offered me, especially through my favorite part of the day -

my music classes. Without the M-W music department, a lot of achievements in my

life would not have been made. I can undoubtedly say that my M-W education

means more to me than my school life and that it has given me a positive outlook

on my future.

Hi, my name is Mackenzie Hintze and I graduated from Monroe-Woodbury

in June of 2015 and I'm here today to

talk about how I feel that my experience at Monroe-Woodbury has prepared me for

my future. I'm currently going into my junior year of college at SUNY Geneseo

and I'm a biology major. And I really do think that my experience at Monroe has

helped me a lot while I'm in college. One of the first things that you talk

about with people when you get to college in your freshman year I feel

like is you talk about your high school, and I came to find really quickly that I

came from a very large high school compared to most other people in my

college. And at first people would say things like, how did you get any

attention in high school... there are so many people? Like you must have been lost

in like a sea of people? But I never really felt that way and I told them

that um I feel like in Monroe-Woodbury we have a great way of having everyone

be recognized and, even though there are a lot of students who attend the schools,

there's never that feeling of getting lost. When you have a teacher that's

really interested in what they're teaching you, it makes all that much of a

difference because it helps you to retain that information. And I've used

information from a lot of classes that I've taken in high school or middle

school into what I'm doing in college. And I really do think that those basic

things that I learned from teachers that were really passionate about their

subjects helped me to continue with what I'm doing now in college.

In addition to the teachers and the curriculum, I think that the after-school

activities or the other opportunities that we provide really did make a

difference because it gave you so much experience in worldly things that

helped you to connect with people and to learn how to deal with other people.

And I think it's a really important skill that people should have that they're

able to effectively communicate and work with other people in their lives,

no matter what situation that they're in. And I think that with all the

opportunities I received from Monroe-Woodbury, I really did have that chance.

I really do thank Monroe-Woodbury for my past academic experience cuz I

don't think I would be the person I am today without them. Thank you.

MONEY TALKS | Somali Education Fund - Duration: 8:28.

Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh everybody

My name is Mariam

My name is Umalkhayr

and I'm Asma

Okay so we're here to talk about an organization

called the Somali Education Fund

Before we get into more depth of the logistics and how we work

we are just going to show a quick video InshaAllah

The Somali Education Fund is an organization of students

who have come together to make education more accessible for youth in Somalia

Our goal as an organization is to provide schooling for those less fortunate

We believe that an individual circumstance should not be an obstacle towards their pursuit of knowledge

Which is why we students have come together to facilitate the education funds of 10 underprivileged children

whose families have lack the financial means to send their kids to school

We are aiming towards financing tuition fees for 10 children with Al Kowther Model School in Mogadishu, Somalia

Basically the way our organization works is that we raise awareness for the obstacles that students

in Somalia face with regards to accessibility for education, transportation, supplies, even food

So far we started fundraising in local communities

We just had our first bake sale at Carleton University this past Thursday

Alhamdullilah we were able to raise $568

So 8 hours of our time amounted to a child going to school for 11 months

So like, it's just, it's wild

It's amazing to think that so little of our time can mean so much to someone else

and right now the way it works is that we're connected with a school called Al Kowther

and we asked them for a breakdown of their costs

and then we asked you guys have kids living in these areas that can't afford to go to school

and unfortunately they're like yeah of course we have kids like that

and we asked them to go find us some

and they found us 10 of these children

Unfortunately all of these kids have lost either one or both of their parents

So our goal is to fund them so that they can go to school

The fact here that we made, we send that directly to the school

We send that directly to the school, the school clears their accounts

and these kids get to go school without their families paying a single cent

Okay so this is

This is just the beginning for us

Alhamdullilah with a whole lot of dua that we were able to accomplish a lot so far

and we plan to expand

So we started in Ottawa and we have made a pledge to these ten children

to support them until they graduate

but the goal is to connect with organizations across the world like SSA's and major cities

and try to get them to connect with another school in a different city and help ten other kids

So this is kind of like education, it's a gift that keeps on giving you know

Alright so we don't have time to go into all the students

so we're just gonna go into a couple of them

The first student, the one with the purple jilbaab, her name is Khadija

and she is six years old

Her father was murdered unjustly and shortly after her mother did tahrib (immigration)

So InshaAllah she wants to be a teacher when she grows up and also study the Quran

so we just want to facilitate that for her

The really sad thing is that when her mother did tahrib she was never found again

and that was four years ago

The second child right next to her, his name is Abdishakur

Abdishakur is 6 years old

This little man wants to be a doctor when he grows up

He currently lives with his 70 year old grandmother because his mother passed away

and she's working to provide for him when at 70 years old you shouldn't be working at all you know

and he wants to eventually be able to support her

And he's thinking about supporting his grandmother and he's just 6 years old you know

so it's just someone we should be really looking up to

So the fourth child, his name is Abdulwahid, he is 6 years old

His mother passed away Allahu naxariisto while she was giving birth to him

so then he ended up living with his grandmother and then shortly after that his grandmother also passed away Allahu naxariisto

So now Abdulwahid lives with aunt and she has about 10 children

So you can imagine why she doesn't have the finances and the costs to send Abdulwahid to school

We also found out that Abdulwahid loves science and aspires to be a teacher when he grows up

All of these children you guys see on the screen, they're our family, they are brothers and they are sisters

They have hopes and they have dreams just like all of us

And the fact is all 10 of these kids have been through so much

that no child at this age should ever have to go through

And us here in the west, Alhamdullilah we have been blessed with so much opportunity

we have been blessed with stability and so many privileges

and wallahi , wallahi we have done absolutely nothing to deserve it

so the fact of the matter is, that's exactly why we have to step up and it's case closed

we have to step up and start doing something for these kids that don't have much you know

we need to do, like, maybe at the end of everyday collect loose change or something

For children that are in need that want to learn and that have so much potential but their circumstances

can't allow them to reach that full potential

So we have to do something you know and try together to facilitate the dreams of these kids

that they think is so unrealistic to them, let's try together as a community and make it a reality InshaAllah

How much is it for each kid to go?

Yeah so I have a breakdown of the costs

Sorry one second

Okay so this is all in US dollars

The way they split it up is they split it up between preschool and elementary school

So for preschool, just the tuition fee is 25 USD

bus fare is 10 US, lunch is 15 US, uniform is 20 US, supplies are 11 US

Elementary school, school is 12 US, bus fare is 10 US, lunch is 15 US, uniform is 20 US, and supplies at 11 US

So we are trying to, so we said that that $568 that's enough for one kid for about 11 months

Our goal is about $12,000 that we want to make in July

And the way it works is that it's their school fees but on top of that it's renovations for the school

So the amount we're raising for them is about $7000 that sends these kids to school

but the renovations towards the school they benefit all the kids that go there

So if you want to know more we're gonna put our contact information up

Yeah just based off of what Mariam said, I guess the reason why we're doing this is because, like

the Prophet (SAW) he said, the person who takes care of an orphan, you and me are gonna be like this in Jannah

So inshaAllah if nothing gets us to Jannah hopefully this will be it

and yeah

So our organization we're actually having our first event this February

it's called History of the Horn and it's basically a Somali history night cause like I'll speak for myself

I went to like school here, I know a lot about Canadian history not so much about Somali history

and we have some really cool people that came before us that fought for us and I feel like we should

We should know about them, we should know where we came from

So we have excellent speakers coming

The tickets are $10, all proceeds will go towards these kids

So you guys, at the end of the day inshaAllah tell everybody about this event, you know

Tell your grandma's, you father's, tell every single person to come through, because as Asma said

All proceeds go to these children

And you know I understand this whole lecture is about how to make money so we might be broke

and we don't have money to, you know, fund these children

So just send some dua our ways

That will be blessed, so you know share us on Facebook and like our page

and tell everybody about this, JazakAllah khair

That's true

Just to close off, we just want to thank everyone

who helped us speak, this is just the beginning for us

Right now the school is in Mogadishu, but hopefully we're gonna expand this to all students

for everywhere

TN Commissioner of Education Visits Fairview High - Duration: 2:01.

So when you are given this opportunity to sort of go in between these two

classrooms is this where you're actually making plans? The Commissioner of

Education from the State Department of Education in Tennessee visited. What are you

doing? What is mechatronics? Why are you here? I get an opportunity to go across

the state and really analyze career and technical education programs and those

partnerships that are being made with higher education and this particular

program is a highlight. It's kind of a test to see if you're really up for it. This room that we're standing in right now is

amazing. It really gives me a taste of what I would like to do in my

future. I wanted to see the mechatronics space here and the work that they're

doing with the local community college and so today it was about individual

student interest, individual student needs and how is Williamson County

really working to support all students in their pursuits. I think it is

just an excellent class for for me because like I've always been interested

in engineering. This class you really get to see if you have an aptitude for it

if you enjoy and will enjoy your work. In Fairview I was able to actually talk to

students about the paths that they're on and they were able to verbalize the on

ramps and off ramps on that pathway through advanced manufacturing. You know

the basics of how the machine works and then how to apply that. You can take that

hands-on knowledge and apply it to anything else. I just think this is just going to

really help me to the next level on the college application and

prepare me for college. That's remarkable for a high school student

freshman through senior to be able to get experiences where they're seeing a

real life skill. I've seen a lot of doors open up and which one I'm going to go

through is exciting but it still gives me that choice. I think that this class

has really helped me discovered that that's actually what I

like to do and it doesn't just sound cool. I've fallen in love with it and it has captivated me. I just want to reinforce

the fact that this is I believe this is an excellent opportunity.

CSU Redefines Teacher Education - Duration: 3:04.

Well, first of all, Cleveland State has been the best decision I've ever made in my entire life.

When I decided to become a teacher

I didn't know which university I wanted to go to,

and immediately in my first semester

I was placed inside of elementary schools,

and every single semester I was in a brand-new school,

developing relationships with students, and teachers and principals.

So, there are three rotations that students go through.

In special education the first rotation is focused more

on learning about the foundations of education,

learning about the role of the school in society,

learning about how schools work logistically in communities.

The second rotation really digs into the practical aspects of teaching.

So there's a course on assessment and a course on instruction.

And the third rotation is about

spending a lot of time in the field

and really fine-tuning things before you go into student teaching,

which is a much more independent experience.

The biggest benefit of having the hands-on experiences

that they provide us with at Cleveland State

is that you develop confidence in yourself

as a professional and as a teacher.

So, when you start off,

even if you love students,

you might not know if you're going to be a great teacher.

But then you start exploring yourself as an educator,

you start playing with the students

and feeling comfortable,

and making those friendships and connections with them.

And I would say that those experiences,

more than learning the content that you would in a classroom setting,

in terms of a college classroom setting,

those experiences have made me the teacher

that I am now and that I will be in the future.

It is extremely beneficial

to have as much time as you can in the classroom,

actually applying what you're learning

to working directly with students as soon as possible.

I think that what we're trying to do

is move more towards an education model

that a lot of occupations have used for a long time,

more towards closer to apprenticeship.

You see it a lot in the medical field, for instance.

It helps people figure out

exactly what group that they want to be working with in the future,

helps them choose what age they're most interested in,

what subject matter they really enjoy teaching.

And it helps them, kind of, not form bad habits,

to get the right habits from the start.

I would say our professors at Cleveland State

are not only passionate leaders,

but they are experts in education.

Every single professor I've had I look up to as a mentor,

and I've developed relationships with them

that I will continue to have.

People who go through this program,

who have more time with students

before they get into a student teaching experience,

are gonna be a lot more successful in their first try,

and therefore get to try a lot more advanced skills,

cause they're not bumping through learning the basics.
