Reaching out to the students for support. Helping them understand they have support and can confide with questions/assistance.

If there cant be a proper figure or connection to the student at home, I would like to be that connection to them. This can be done by being understanding and compassionate towards them instead of displaying hostility.

Having meetings with students individually, getting to know them on a personal level in which they feel trust to talk about their goals with us. This could help us, teach them and show them how community college is good as well.

Being more inclusive. Supporting the students by understanding the ethnic backgrounds attending the school and learning to accommodate (events, support groups, interpreters, etc.)

I want to be a high school counselor and this is the main reason. Allowing students to know all the things they can do apart from going to the university and getting their degree. Many people can get their associates in community college and be more successful than someone with a masters from a big name university.

My hope is that we, as educators, can find ways to connect with struggling and/or reluctant students and help them on their academic journey. This means right now at SWC and later once you become classroom teachers. You might even begin working with parents to encourage them to continue their education while their children are in school.

I want my siblings to know that after they graduate high school they can be successful going to community college as well as big universities. I don't want them to feel discouraged by teachers or staff saying going straight to universities is better.

Personally, I would like to believe that programs like DEBER will help students stay in school, but I need to see some data and get feedback from students. I can also do my best to model being a lifelong learner.

Even though I am not a teacher, as a student, it has always been a trend where the most "reckless" children are the ones who don't have a stable connection to their families. This could be caused by family issues, or lack of proper attention to the kid.

Many students who are latino/hispanic have parents who immigrated from Mexico or South America. As immigrants English is not their first language. It's hard for families to get to understand curriculums and education when they don't feel comfortable or understand the language.

We have a lot of family members, including my own brother, who dropped out of high school. We also have family members who started college, but didn't continue. I have also seen a lot of talented students leave school.

It is important to understand which factors contribute to students leaving school. This applies to k-12 and college

The most critical issues that need to be improved are safe places for children who have immigrant parents and being able to intervene when a child shows signs of abuse

Teaching high school students why community college is not bad. Having them understand that is is as good as going to a big name university. I think it would motivate many students to further their education if the knew this, and didn't just hear about the big universities being the best.

When I came to USA I was in 10th grade, I didn’t know what I was going to do after high school, what school to choose, I did what my counselor told me to do. Now i know there are more opportunities for us and I think it would be better if I knew  all those things when I was in high school.

Some students can display rude, disrespectful behavior. We can tend to view the child as the one to blame, when in reality it can be because of their surroundings at home for example.

Collectively, we can expose students to people who work in industries or in careers that they love and let them explain how they got there. By pooling our collective resources, we can really make direct connections between professionals and students.

Reach out to students and ask how they are doing in classes. If they need any help with registering, or transferring. Or small talk to make sure they aren't as stressed as they are.

As an educator, I can work with my students and families to help them understand the wide range of careers that are available. For example, many students enter college studying art or music, but their families feel that is a waste of time. However, there are a lot of jobs in the entertainment industry that hire art and music majors because they learn skills to support music, movies, television, theatre, etc. And those students can work in those fields.

I would like to work with these students and support them in any way possible to assure that they achieve their goal no matter the cause. To also create a healthy environment for them to communicate well with other students and support each other.

It was very difficult for me to concentrate knowing that my grandmother could die because of covid, and many students could be in a similar situation.

Creating a safe place for students to have help in and not be afraid to ask for help when in need. To also support those that don't have a helping hand in life as well in education. I would like to present this to people since I had this support, but I grew around people who never did. Which resulted in them dropping out of school.

When I was in high school, I didn't know what I wanted to do and I felt like no one really talked to me about what opportunities were available for school and careers. I also did not know about financial aid that was available to low-income students,

Supporting our children when it comes to education. Many families support their child in many different ways, but in many families they prefer their child to go work rather than to go to school and get an education with a better job.
