Problem Solving Training Workshops - Action Management Associates Critical thinking training that improves business performance. Identify the cause of problems. Develop creative solutions. Select the best course of action when making decisions. Avoid potential problems when initiating change. When individuals become skilled in critical thinking problem solving they are able to move beyond personal biases to use observation, reflection, reason, interaction, investigation, and personal experience to identify and process the information needed to solve complex issues and problems. Critical thinking training that creates positive change in an organization must go beyond teaching participants what to think to help them learn how to think.

Search apt_AD('North'); More Weather Published Monday, February 6, 2006 EDUCATION: No. 1 priority By The Times-Union It's no surprise that improving education is at the top of everyone's list in Jacksonville. According to the Florida Department of Education Web site, the percentage of students considered at or above grade level for reading starts at 67 percent for children in the third grade, but drops to 32 percent for children in the 10th grade. Duval County high school graduation rates also are dismally low, with only 67.2 percent of students graduating. But the K-12 system can't take the heat alone. According to the 2000 census, only 21.9 percent of Duval County's population aged 25 and over had a bachelor's degree, compared to the national average of 24.4 percent. Here are some suggestions from the Blueprint for Prosperity plan that need to be addressed: Ensure that pre-K programs will prepare children to enter kindergarten without performance gaps. Expect all students to graduate from high school with skills required to enter the workforce or higher education.

Vision Statement Because girls of color are dropping out of school at an early age, SisterMentors is committed to mentoring girls of color in middle and high schools in the Washington, D.C. area. We are giving back to our community by promoting the value of education among girls of color. Our mentoring includes girls of color of different races, ethnicities and backgrounds including, Latina, African American, Asian American, Native American and girls of color who are immigrants. Our goal is to successfully encourage girls of color to stay in school, excel academically and go on to college. SisterMentors' vision is to open the eyes of girls of color to college educated women who look like them so the girls can see that they are heirs to a legacy of women of color who have persevered and achieved academic success despite the odds. We collaborate with organizations that seek to increase the educational achievements of girls of color, encourage critical thinking, teach leadership skills, and the importance of community involvement. We envision that the girls we mentor today will pursue Ph.Ds and be part of SisterMentors in the future. Imagine how different the world will be when that happens!

Home Delta School District Contact Us Announcements ... Timetable School Information History Mission Statement Rights and Responsibilities School Policies History of Delta Secondary School King George V High School, the first high school in Delta, was located on the present site of the Ladner Community Center. The first two rooms of the school were built in 1912, with a third room added in 1916. Simeon Fisher in his book "The History of Delta" states that there was "opposition to building the school in Ladner on the grounds that there were not enough children to keep it going". The school closed in 1938 having had almost 500 students graduate during the life of the school. The building was not demolished right away but became a canteen known as the "Ladner Dug Out" to provide some diversion for the military who were training in Delta. After WW 11, the Ladies Auxiliary of the Royal Canadian Legion used the building for meetings before it was replaced by a bowling alley and later the present community center. In 1938, Delta Central School, originally built in 1926 and used as an elementary school (grade 1-8), was enlarged and updated for senior students while a new elementary school was built on the same plot of land, the site of DSS today. A new gym separated the two schools. The Weekly Optimist of December 15, 1938, reported that "the building and equipping of the new schools has taken many long sessions of deliberation by the school trustees and today the Junior-Senior High School, elementary school, gymnasium andmanual training quarters are completely modern and fully equipped, supervised by a capable, enthusiastic teaching staff." 270 students were enrolled in the school at this time.
