I have done the following things thus far in my Action
Research Project tilted Goal: To Understand the Benefits of School Uniforms
With Regards To Grades, Attendance, and Behavior.
1.
I have gathered research articles and books
regarding the benefits of school uniforms with regards to grades, attendance,
and behavior.
2.
I have pre-selected a student sample students to
monitor and make conclusions on if the switch to school uniforms has made any
difference in attendance, grades, discipline for my Action Research
Project. Interviews with the students
will take place in December with a paper writing to follow in the spring.
3.
I have obtained permission to hand out/ conduct
survey on student benefit of school uniforms in 6th grade student sample and
fill out at home. Survey to take place at the end of the year.
4.
I have begun to monitor class sample attendance
progress and compare/contrast to last year when students did not wear school
uniforms.
5.
I have obtained permission from parents of
selected students to promote 2-way communication and to achieve unity in the
student education process.
6.
The one challenge I have had thus far in the
project is pacing. If the school system has taught anything it is that pacing
yourself to prepare for new challenges and problems in the school day is tough!
It is a constant balancing act of taking care of priorities and also taking
care of the things that matter in the school system. I have a hunch because of
a loving God and supportive staff and professors I will make it; practicing
balance however will also continue to be important.
