The Ron Clark movie was a remarkable story about a hopeful teacher in a city school. He was able to transform his failing and disrespectful students into high achieving respectful kids. I really enjoyed this movie. The storyline reminded me a lot of the other movie we watched for this class titled, “Beyond the Blackboard.” I admired the tactics that Mr. Clark used to gain his students’ attention. I felt that the teacher was able to keep his students engaged and excited in his class. This movie taught the important lesson that all students need an advocate who will push them to success. Good teachers can make such a big impact in so many peoples’ lives. Overall, I really loved this movie and I plan to to be just exciting as a teacher as Mr. Clark was in this movie!

Community can be defined as a group of people who share similarities and focus on supporting one another’s growth and improvement. The Ron Clark movie had a strong community within the classroom because the classroom began working together to ensure that everyone succeeded. Mr. Clark was a strong motivator for all of his students and I think that his hope in his students strengthened the communal ties within the classroom. It is important to establish a community within the classroom because it makes it easier for the students to learn, form friendships, have fun, and ask for help when needed.

Linking school to communities and business is a very essential key in education because it allows for students to draw connections between what they are learning in the classroom to situations in the real world. Communal involvement in schools is also important because it has proven to improve student academic performance as well as help students to gain advocates that motivate their success. Business in schools is also essential because it helps show students relevance in the world and motivates students to do well in school. An example of a community and school program is the “Communities in Schools,” non-profit organization. This organization ensures that students have everything that they may need for success as well as surrounds students with a community of support to empower students to stay in school and achieve in life.

As gender inclusiveness is becoming a rising topic in this generation, it is important to have a gender inclusive classroom. It is also important to teach students that gender inclusiveness is needed everywhere in both business and community. Gender inclusivity means to be open to any person’s sexual orientation or identity. At Kutztown University, we have gender inclusive housing which allows people who are non- binary to feel more comfortable with their living arrangements. The LGBTQ+ Resource Center at Kutztown University ensures that all transgender, lesbian, gay, bisexual, intersex, questioning, or non-cisgender/straight students are safe and supported. They can also aid in helping you find gender inclusive housing on campus. If you have any questions, you can contact them at: 484-646-4111
