management paradigm that emphasizes trust and relationship building create far more effective educational environments.
Still, teachers do need to be armed with information and specific strategies. Some of the strategies recommended including improved awareness of non-verbal communication cues and a systematic means of redirecting and reframing problematic behavior (Jones, Jones & Vermette, 2013). Effective classroom management requires sensitivity to issues like cultural diversity and other contextual variables, too.

CURRENT DROPOUT RATES IN THE NATION’S PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOLS
While each of the 50 states has its own constitutional language and mission for its public schools, it is reasonable to posit that these missions are unachievable when students leave the school systems altogether before they complete their studies.

by individual governmental levels. This discourse necessitates effective education of the masses on associated problems and a framework which objectively, thoroughly and constructively showcases the problems. Therefore, to aid this discussion, the problem may be outlined in the following way: Public concerns have been raised with regard to natural gas extraction such that additional energy is generated whilst, simultaneously, natural resources are safeguarded for their safe utilization by plants, animals and mankind and economic progress is enhanced and maintained (Ferrell & Sanders, 2013).

According to Standard 4: “Effective educational leaders develop and support intellectually rigorous and coherent systems of curriculum, instruction, and assessment to promote each student’s academic success and well-being” (p.1) Historically, according to the literature, many forms of standardized assessments have found to be inadequate in the manner in which they address student diversity.

Standard 1: Mission, Vision, and Core Values
This standard holds that effective educational leaders create, promote and embody and mission, vision and core set of values that can be shared by all stakeholders within the educational system (Professional Standards for Educational Leaders, 2015).
