My Students

The majority of students that come into my In-School Suspension room are at-risk and struggling with many issues. They have family issues, they are academically challenged, and they have behavior problems. They struggle to complete classwork, homework, control their behavior and get along with peers.

They are not bad people at all.

They need extra help to make them successful, and more people to believe in them and encourage them! I am working to establish and build rapport with these students while they are serving out a consequence for their behavior.

My Project

While serving time in In-School Suspension (ISS) for various behaviors, students often just sit and do work. Research shows us this is not good, as they need to be able to have movement, exercise and work out their feelings and emotions through physical activity.

I want my students to have the opportunity to be active while in In-School Suspension.

By having a treadmill and stationary bike they will be able to have movement, work through frustrations, and have the opportunity to work on assignments while they exercise. Research tells us that students often learn best when they are moving, so I am hopeful that being able to exercise will help them retain information they are working on and learning while in ISS.
