There are many things that go into a good school
but I think some of the most important things are having students engaged, good
student-teacher relationships, and a well-rounded school. When creating my own
school I would choose to have it as a liberal arts school. It is very important
for kids to be well rounded especially at younger ages. Once students get into
high school I feel they should be able to take most of their classes in the
concentration of their choice but should be required to take classes in all
subjects so they are able to keep developing their skills to be a well-rounded
student. This goes back to keeping students engaged. Not every student is going
to be engaged into every subject but, it is the teachers’ job to keep the
students engaged. The better relationship a teacher has with their students the
better they will be able to do this. In order to keep students engaged the
teachers need to create activities that involved the students’ interests. One
way to connect to the students interests and get to know them better is to
create a feeling of a safe school where they can come and feel open to be completely
themselves. There is a lot to keep in mind when creating a school and sometimes
it is hard for a teacher or administrators to keep all the different things in
balance.
