Download or read book Ensuring That No Child Is Left Behind written by J.D. Jones and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2018-08-01 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “As a former college professor and school administrator, I have always had a focus on teaching and learning as well as providing a safe school environment for all. Jerry Dale Jones’s book is a strategic mentor program that is proactive in preventing many of the difficult school situations that we read about daily” (Dr. Reginald Oxendine, president and CEO, Reading Solutions Inc., Pembroke, North Carolina). “This is an important work that offers insight in creating success for students within a school setting. The information and ideas presented will be invaluable to anyone involved in education seeking a new approach for a safe school environment” (Dr. Mickey Blackwell, former middle school principal and executive director of Elementary and Middle School Principals in West Virginia). Ensuring that no child is left behind: A Strategic mentoring program for middle and high school students is not a quick fix, but if used in a thoughtful manner, it has hope for creating a culture for safe schools as well as assisting all students to persist to graduation. This strategic mentoring program has a common sense approach that is backed by many years of practical and day-to-day activities that work. Throughout my career, I have heard the term at-risk used often. I now believe we are all at risk, depending on each day that we approach. It can be a miracle or a nightmare, depending on the many unforeseen encounters that occur daily in our life.

Book excerpt: Set against the backdrop of the Civil Rights Movement, Redlined exposes the racist lending rules that refuse mortgages to anyone in areas with even one black resident. As blacks move deeper into Chicago’s West Side during the 1960s, whites flee by the thousands. But Linda Gartz’s parents, Fred and Lil choose to stay in their integrating neighborhood, overcoming previous prejudices as they meet and form friendships with their African American neighbors. The community sinks into increasing poverty and crime after two race riots destroy its once vibrant business district, but Fred and Lil continue to nurture their three apartment buildings and tenants for the next twenty years in a devastated landscape—even as their own relationship cracks and withers. After her parents’ deaths, Gartz discovers long-hidden letters, diaries, documents, and photos stashed in the attic of her former home. Determined to learn what forces shattered her parents’ marriage and undermined her community, she searches through the family archives and immerses herself in books on racial change in American neighborhoods. Told through the lens of Gartz’s discoveries of the personal and political, Redlined delivers a riveting story of a community fractured by racial turmoil, an unraveling and conflicted marriage, a daughter’s fight for sexual independence, and an up-close, intimate view of the racial and social upheavals of the 1960s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chicago's extensive transit system first started in 1859, when horsecars ran on rails in city streets. Cable cars and electric streetcars came next. Where new trolley car lines were built, people, businesses, and neighborhoods followed. Chicago quickly became a world-class city. At its peak, Chicago had over 3,000 streetcars and 1,000 miles of track--the largest such system in the world. By the 1930s, there were also streamlined trolleys and trolley buses on rubber tires. Some parts of Chicago's famous "L" system also used trolley wire instead of a third rail. Trolley cars once took people from the Loop to such faraway places as Aurora, Elgin, Milwaukee, and South Bend. A few still run today.

In the sweltering summer of 1915, Pin, the fourteen-year-old daughter of a carnival fortune-teller, dresses as a boy and joins a teenage gang that roams the famous Riverview amusement park, looking for trouble. Unbeknownst to the well-heeled city-dwellers and visitors who come to enjoy the midway, the park is also host to a ruthless killer who uses the shadows of the dark carnival attractions to conduct his crimes. When Pin sees a man enter the Hell Gate ride with a young girl, and emerge alone, she knows that something horrific has occurred. The crime will lead her to the iconic outsider artist Henry Darger, a brilliant but seemingly mad man. Together, the two navigate the seedy underbelly of a changing city to uncover a murderer few even know to look for.

Yet he pursues Lucy Sheehan, an older girl with a "reputation." When Vince abruptly flees Chicago, he ends up in Tofino, a picturesque fishing town on the rugged west coast of Vancouver Island in British Columbia. He finds a job gutting fish, then is hired by Tofino's most colorful dealer, Mr. Zig-Zag, and joins the thriving marijuana trade. Ultimately, through his friendship with an Ahousaht native named Ignatius George, he finds his calling as a whale guide. Set in the turbulent decades of the Vietnam War and the drug and hippie counterculture, The Whale Chaser is a powerful story about the possibility of redemption.
