in public schools, private schools, and tribal colleges. i tried to create for my students in education experience that affirmed who they are and build them up rather than one that presumes to save them from attempting to strip away their dignity. i thank you for this opportunity to tell just a little bit of my story. >> thank you dr.lein for sharing your memories in the manner in which i hope you can regain our trust. the chair will now recognize the honorable ben barnes who is the chief of the shawnee tribe. >> today madam chair, thank you for the opportunity to address this committee regarding house resolution 5444, the tru and healing commission on indian orting school policies in the usa act. my name is ben barnes and it is my honor and privilege to serve as the chief of the shawnee tribe headquartered in miami -- it is an honor to be here tod. i honor respect and admire th bravery and perseverance of my fellow panelists who survived boarding schools. at its core, washington, d.c. is a city of remembrae. from the washington monument to

schools in alaska and seven schools in hawaii.olume one also identifies approximately 53 different schools that contain marked or unmarked burial sites. as the investigation continues, we expect the number of identified burial sites to increase, along with more definite numbers of identified indian boarding school sites, children, and operating dates of the facilities. our obligations to native communities mean that federal policy should fully support and revitalize native healthcare, education, languages, and cultural practices that prior to destroy. the department, working with relevant sister federal agencies, will also work to expand tribal communities access to mental health resources. i recently announced that we will embark on the road to healing, a tour throughout the nation, to hear directly from survivors and descendants about their experiences. a necessary part of this journey will be to connect survivors and their families with mental health support and to create a permanent collection of oral histories. we know this w

we have a register in 24,000 schools of forty thousand schools established school theaters, and next year each school will have its own sports club or section and school theater. it is also developing, of course, free of charge, absolutely free of charge, with us, much attention is paid to the education system. uh, weekly. e. the training week begins with the raising of the national flag . the national anthem, and conducting conversation lessons about the important. uh, when this decision was discussed, uh, many skeptics were made saying that the conversation was about something important, that's some kind of police. why do we return to the past today? for some reason, there are no such skeptics, why? because, when the lessons began, everyone saw that this was an informal communication of schoolchildren with a teacher of schoolchildren among themselves on topics that interest them, i advise everyone, if such skeptics remained several times. uh, stopped by chose school, uh, and went to see how the lesson is organized to visit these lessons. look there, who doubts to visit these lesson

my reservation was served by many schools, we had to boarding schools, we had a catholic boarding schoolst. francis xavier boarding school. we had a unitarian boarding school. and we had eight days schools later starting at about 1904. the co-students that went to carlisle, had definitely picked up my fascination and i have studied them. learned about their data. in a general sense it is difficult to get to the stories of women and children because typical histories don't always get to the faces and voices of men and women. they often follow politics and economics. but my historical research that has shown there are many moving parts, fortunately in the case of carlisle, there is a digital resource center. and that center provides basic data on all the students who were enrolled. i was able to find out who the students were. i found out that three of our students passed away are buried there. i found that 17 were discharged for serious illness, many of whom, almost all of whom, died within a year or two of their return to the reservation. i have the advantage of having been able to inter

number two, establish comprehensive school mental health systems in all schools.his includes supporting the mental health of all students in our classrooms through teaching social and emotional skills and mental health literacy schoolwide and providing mental health interventions where they are in partnership with families in schools. comprehensive school mental health systems not only improve meantal health outcomes for our young people but also have, again, demonstrated success in improving really important academic indicators like attendance and grades. in my written testimony i provide specific examples of policies to advance mental health in schools such as establishing mental health as a state-required component of k-12 education like we see in new york and virginia and requiring health plans to reimburse for mental health screenings that are conducted on campus. the hopeful futures campaign this year released school mental health report cards across all 50 states and an accompanying legislative guide. that is a great starting point for policymakers who wish

from catholic schools to parochial schools, to private schools to homeschooling, to micro schooling,uition, tutors, textbooks. it's wide open. we had a version of educational savings accounts in place for autistic children. children, children of military parents. the native american lands. that was at 20,000. the law went into effect two weeks ago. 30,000 have already signed up and we have 50,000 families taking advantage of this and i want to give a special thank you to janel would. she was my partner in getting this done. i don't see this as a partisan thing and she is not a part of my political party. but she did think that our kids needed this opportunity and she sat next to the first lady in my final state of the state, 50 years ago politicians stood in the schoolhouse door and would not let the minorities in. today they stand at the schoolhouse door and they won't let minorities out. these kids are trapped in failing schools and it's time to set these families free. educational savings accounts gives back cool choice of those families and i can't wait to see what happens in ari

some perpetrated by senior school students themselves from by school employees, and others by outside does more than a 1000 schools run by the delhi government ought to be covered by the scheme. but it's dividing opinion across the board as did able to correspondent all the pot reports this government school in delhi became one of the 1st schools to install the c d, v cameras and classrooms and public areas. every day, hundreds of students here are constantly under surveillance with each moment of their day being phoned from the comfort of his office principal rockridge. the yard can monitor every thing happening at his school. he says that camera footage allows him to quickly tackle problems like bullying at betty crime. something is there, okay, are a warning system. you can see there some students if they have some kind of from a frank or something to darrell. so this, so having the idea, okay, you are being watched, our thing is being recorded to that as to that discipline kill sent. but many of the students feel uncomfortable at being under the gaze. all the almost 200 cameras in

that can be useful across schools. kristen: i wonder if kids will think, if i didn't get in early, that means my main essays didn't work well. should i start from scratch? what do you think? >> generally no, it is never one thing the reason you didn't get into a school and presumably you spent a lot of time on that essay so it doesn't hurt to go back and tweak. also remember that writing is subjective. what one person may love, someone else may not. one admission rep at one their take is not the take of every other admission rep. don't over think it on that one piece. i would work on what is new and additional for the next colleges on your list and focus on those. kristen: should they be applying two very different types of schools? >> as far as selectivity goes, absolutely. i'm assuming students might have a particular major or have thought about certain priorities in terms of location or the country that makes some of the other ways you can type schools common. thinking about selectivity, you have to have a school or

if you go to a failing school title i schools typically one why not give the child and the parent to choice of where to send their kids? and i think that time is concrete 60% of democrats and 67% of independents and 70% of african-americans and 66% of all agree that school choice is a path forward. that's good news for both sides of the aisle. that's a miracle, modern-day miracle. >> none of this is a fundamental point that it isir open a new hh school in the bronx district 12 in the bronx where of all the students had started ninth grada in 2016, four years later over 7% graduated from high school ready for college meaning they started ninth grade and they dropped out along the way or they actually did earn their high school diploma. still couldn't do math or reading without remediation if they were good -- to go to college so even without buy-in that reality still exists. how do we get more kids to be able toti have that first rung o get on the ladder of success? >> i think we have to work harder at looking for the solutions that are to work. we have examples around the country of

some schools haven't. there hasn't been that since at dia, zation, when it comes to how do you handle that data? for how long do you handle that data, right? who has access to it for how long is it stored? all these questions are very important when it comes to, especially children, when the best data has to be handled with extra care. and there has to be extra due diligence here, right? so yes, but it had somebody happy with the decision on jared, the government that majority of the balance that i spoke to for them, it was a confidence building measures that schools during orientation when they had this parent or just going back to the point of purpose and a process and the digital data protection that india would you say the 3rd, the way it digital data is handled on the productions around. but defer to the way that differ in india to the where their handle potentially in the worst, particularly the sensitization around that by west also, it has differences like in germany, it is pretty good. the standar

however, in the schools that i have been to one, these are mostly city based schools. there have been a key, the bullying from down to an extent in the schools that i have gone to and interacted with parents with faculty members with students themselves. so when it comes to a bullying incidence, yes. and to an extent, last city, the cameras have reduced these incidents of stocking of harris meant, oh baby. i had a lot of my assumptions also challenge to and i did feel you were in these because i as you, that students would be a good be. i would try to change their behavior when it comes to the cameras inside classrooms. however, point of time i saw that they did, they got used to it and they were not that aware of the cameras be there, which was quite revolutionary of the kind of internalized ation of the surveillance mechanisms that is happening. so just based on what you're saying, good barrett of it would appear to have the correct argument of the beer keeping children safe. by installing cecily become rose into the government schools. zach wrote us, i would like to

uh, graduating from high school.no one additional exam in the form of centralized testing and the average score of the certificate, therefore, in fact, as before, the maximum number of points that can be scored will be 400, i suggest turning more to the school curriculum, when i was at school and there were also many reforms, there were 12 classes, then canceled eleven classes. eh, and now. as far as i know , too many experiments. when do you think we can already come to the point when the school the program will receive some kind of, say, a gold standard. well, you need to understand what the requirements of the educational standard are. they are quite dynamic. today we see how fast both science and technology are developing, and in this regard, we cannot help but respond to these challenges, including in the general education school, because in fact the school is the foundation for the training of a future specialist at all levels , including at the level of higher education, we believe that the approaches that are

, state schools. private schools, state schools. so the costs in the state schools are going to increase . schools are going to increase. we're playing political and a sort of a vengeance against sort of the so—called wealthier people. the problem is that you know today, if you live in a poorer country, you're 27 times more likely to go to a failing school. we have selection and selection by wealth in the states . better if you live in a states. better if you live in a posh area and you can buy a house, you get to a good. in today's papers we have keir starmer. he sends his own children in. come i was a headteacher. there his own children to a school which is incredibly selective it's catchment area is about the size of abramovich's yacht and so it's incredibly so it's okay for him to send kids to those schools. tony blair, he had private tutors coming in from westminster school. did he papakura say behind this is breathtaking and the is the total is equally breathtaking. the need to get a grip because this is a crisis and the way i

a cherokee immersion school for their students, starting from elementary school up to high school. we--that is the reason that we are doing travel consultation on these issues. we want to make sure that whatever we are doing is supporting what the tribe wants for their own communities and, of course, we have the tremendous support of president biden in this effort and we look forward to moving forward. >> okay, very good. so how is the department of interior working with tribes, organizations, they have already begun some aspects of the work such as the truth and reconciliation commission? >> senator, i am not quite. i apologize, could you ask the question again? i have a little bit of trouble hearing you as well so if you could just ask. >> i will try to talk louder. how is the department of interior working with tribes and organizations that have already begun some of the aspects of this work such as the state of maine's truth and reconciliation commission? >> i think it is really our job to make sure that we are supporting tribes in whatever way is the best way possible for them

over 1000 school districts and 8000 public schools in the lone star state.this challenge will require tens of thousands of teachers, librarians and administrators to spend hundreds of thousands of hours reviewing books to implement a regime of censorship at a time when school resources are already stretched thin and states across the country are facing staff shortages. vast majority of books targeted are not mandatory or part of the curriculum, they are books of toys and students can pull him off the shelves of the want and check them out or ignore them entirely. what books are being targeted? some old favorites are like capture the right, native son, huckleberry finn. also a bunch of these books are brought, you want to hear from ruby bridges, whose book ruby bridges for school, the target of censorship moves aside by toni morrison, a nobel prize-winning author. a kids book about racism targeted for censorship. a book called their love. the infamous antiracist baby book. little legends, exceptional men in black history and little dreamers, visionary women a

of all high schools are charter schools. think about this. in colorado, 85% of charter school students met performance standards, compared to only 66% of students in district schools. despite their proven track record of success for students, for parents, and of course, for common sense, the biden administration continues to attack charter schools. he campaigned against them. and as soon as he got in office, he directed the bureaucrats at the department of education to put new restrictions on charter schools desperately looking for funding. these restrictions are a slap in the face to parents who are turning to charter schools as a better alternative for their children. since the pandemic, charter schools have gained 7%. 7%, that's 240,000 more students have chosen charter schools because their parents are able to access common sense for their kids' education. that means hundreds of thousands of students are better off today than they were before they had this option. these are kids growing up in some of america's most devas

in elementary school, not unlike sandy hook elementary school. we want to express her condolences to the affected families and communities. there is a difference in time, place, location, victims, and circumstances leading up to the violent shootings. there are undeniable elements within our nation that exist. the sandy hook shooting and problem entry will shooting. the main one being an assault on -- a ban on the assault weapon. the correlation between proliferation of assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines. it is our opinion that gun violence is a public health issue. as with all public health issues, it demands a comprehensive pragmatic evidence-based approach. organizations such as the national gun enforcement partnership to prevent gun violence is committed to addressing gun violence and the horrific impacts on communities across america. typically injuries, deaths, homicides, suicides. it is understandable and demand immediate attention. reduce injuries and deaths, especially as it relates to the safety of young children. th

the history of mankind obeys this happy school time. took it all to say it’s hard to say systematic adductions - it’s to rut the planche and yakshi to go through thousands of fire for man of history. although at that hour. i passed the vedas on to understand how to cook, i go to make a fire, without heated skills. the history of mankind would have been short, the more knowledge and skills were accumulated, the more and more something similar was painted over. yes, and a ducation, but one on the right to improve knocking out the rolls of the menu and for the family, the rubbish of the month in heaven , cure the date is holy, and give god the iraqi channels, how to choose two gives birth, and only the school ducation becomes necessary to see only once with the expression of the letter is one and is known to pro schools in sentinel civilizations. it can hardly be measured that the most walking ducation was a family one. here they are special people. which subordinate to do this professionally applied. so it was in china there and the lette

it may actually be at the general high school level.en entering our university institution higher education, which it assumes first . we understand that the educational trajectory that we give it should be improved, and we give the opportunity, in fact, to these young people, future students , to already work with potential customers of personnel, that is, with those companies with those enterprises where they can subsequently come. and how, uh, the process of interaction itself is taking place today , we have very close interaction with all state administration bodies, this and the ministry industry, and to me the ministry of culture of the ministry of communications, other ministries with which we closely cooperate, and those guys who fall precisely into the promising sphere of activity of those enterprises or those companies that are part of their structure. we feel interdepartmental interaction here. that is, they can come to the university to get acquainted with them, to invite them to work in practice. moreover , the head of the e

david: do you always want to be a doctor in elementary school and high school?id you know that was your calling? vivek: i was inspired by my parents early on to become a doctor, and for much of grade school that was clear that that is what i wanted to do. toward the end of high school, things changed a little bit. i started to get interested in english literature. i got interested in history and economics as well. and i went to college thinking i might want to pursue something in one of those re-fields. -- in one of those three fields. i took classes in economics, and history and i was trying to get a sense whether that would be my path. what happened actually in between was interesting. it shifted things for me. my freshman year, my father called me and he said, "there is this philanthropist who is looking for a cause that he wants to support, but he does not know what the cause is. though he said if you have any , ideas that you want to work on, there may be an opportunity for you to build something with his support." i thought about it. i had been working on

and a public school.ning. it was much more challenging but yet i learned more in the private school. the class sizes were smaller. you had more individual attention from the teachers. we sat down as a family and discussed it and i had suggested a private school just for the benefit of a smaller class size and a better education and my son just didn't want to do that. he wanted to be in his public school in our area, which is a very good school, i might add. he wanted the options of more sports, diversity and being around different people and different cultures, which our county is just phenomenal for different cultures. >> about you, dontania? >> i'm extremely happy. my youngest are taking college courses as a freshman in high school, which kind of shocked me. previously he was considered underperforming in the private school and he had very low self-esteem while he was there, too. had a teacher that wasn't very standing of a different culture and labeled him as something that he wasn't and discovered how

parents initially followed the protocol of the school board, reporting their concerns to the school administration, as well as directly to their trustees, but the board decided to stick to their official one. statement on teacher's giant prosthetic breasts without a bra, as before, the council strives to create and maintain a safe, caring, inclusive , fair and welcoming environment training and work for all students and staff of a trans teacher, either trolls the school or demands protection of their concerns, hiding behind non-binarity. but if this suit is approved, then why is it not approved, in general, any behavior, what prevents the teacher from putting a giant prosthetic penis in his pants, don't think i didn't think about it. so that you can make your personal fetish public and while you pretend to be the object of hatred. these are works, that if there is such a principle, that children by dominatrix will have to endure spanking will be called fanatics, which will mean more spanking, well then we will let the false science of gender activism unleash public fetishism on all of us prisoners

that is, if earlier this school was called the central school of music at the moscow state conservatoryw it is also called the central school of music, because this is a brand that has been known all over the world for many decades. that is, today we are an educational institution of higher education. we have left everything, that is, everything that was at the moment will be in the future, this is both a preschool group and primary secondary vocational education, plus it will be higher alice came to kemerovo from barnaul, which is located several hundred south of the school teachers. she is said to be much older than her real age. ildar took a long time to select a unique key for her, which would allow the girl to realize her full potential on the instrument. ildar returned from moscow just for the sake of such children. because it's still mine his homeland kuznetsk is still all your land and for me personally. it was a big surprise holiday that i can return home again, because here the level needs to be maintained already in moscow and some of my traditions should be transferred here

high schools all over the country.ties we had a mental health problem but afterthose that came and had adhd. they said they did. we were giving them drugs right and left. we were not but the doctors prescribing three have a medication problem in this country when it comes to mental health quick. >> that's a good question first of allar thank you because we know that all adults as we have said earlier have a responsibility to take care the mental health of our young people i was on the plane next to a school bus driver and she has one of the most responsibilities and with a diagnosis seems to be increasing the we are just becoming more aware of the mental health needs. medications are farar from perfectpe many would argue they are imperfect solutions that there is strong evidence that the medications so those that can be can find from other interventions but also to every decent for so it is not a one-size-fits-all approach a day that combined with others is the most effective with the most debilitating disorders. >> we

what about the school board, do school boards have a say in shaping curriculum in the states education? >> that's not how curriculum works. >> do parents have a say? are there libraries that may be municipalities, state counties also create in different states across the country? >> is there anything that prevents a student from going to a public library if they can't find a book they want to read in their school library? transportation would be the main one. >> are they allowed to go to public libraries if they have transportation? >> that would be a parent's decision. >> are there other places may be a bookstore like barnes and noble? can parents buy books online from amazon? can you go to a place like goodwill and buy a book for less than a dollar or get it for free? >> goodwill selection is certainly not as expensive. they can get a book from a lot of different places even a coffee shop if they wanted to and you mentioned in your testimony earlier about students having safe spaces to read. what about school libraries? >> our kids safe to read when they are at home? >> not always. i

he said he wanted to leave the school. oh boy, who in the army, thank god. data from overwork kills japan's overstretched workers with heart attacks, strokes from mental stress, malnourishment, and some workers even take their own lives. a survey by the o e. c. d found japanese middle school teachers work 56 hours a week compared to an average 38 hours in most developed countries. that doesn't account for the massive overtime hours spent cleaning. supervising school commutes to after school clubs and other tasks up, all know what the lucky got to with it. i have things to do outside school to including family responsibilities in all while you so i sometimes get snowed under garden and feel pressured time wise for you. but what of it? but even when i am under pressure that i don't reduce my workload at school, the thought i enjoy the time i spend playing with the kids. okay. and i just cannot stop it and all by yahoo to come out on an investigation by a union affiliated think tank showed school teachers work in average 123

i went to public schools all throughout high school.nd my parents, they ran a medical practice there that my dad and mom had set up when i was in elementary school. and that sort of was a pivotal sort of experience for me because i spent a lot of time there as a kid, and it shaped my excitement and interest for pursuing medicine later in life. david: and were both your parents medical doctors? dr. murthy: my father is a doctor. he is a family medicine doctor. my mother actually did her degree in english literature, but we like to say that she is an inherent healer herself, because it comes naturally to her. and as somebody who ran my dad's clinic for many years there, the patients in the clinic all came to know her and to trust her. david: did you always want to be a doctor in elementary school and high school? did you know that was your calling? dr. murthy: well, i was inspired by my parents early on to become a doctor, and for much of grade school that was pretty clear, that is what i wanted to do. toward the end of high school, thing
