This maze can be an adventure of achievement and opportunity, or it can be a struggle of difficulty and disappointment. As these experiences are the impetus or foundation for many later achievements in academics, careers, and personal life, it is imperative that educators maximize these formative years by helping middle school students successfully travel through this maze despite its ups and downs, its twists and turns, and its new challenges to master and the old issues to resolve. For instance, educators must support students who have fallen behind, so as to thwart their reduced likelihood of turnaround in high school. Likewise, educators must challenge exceptional students, in order to perpetuate their enthusiasm for learning and prepare them for college studies. By discussing the comprehensive roles and duties of school administrators, counselors, and teachers, The Power of Middle School addresses how to maximize middle school curriculum and extra-curricular activities for the academic, personal, and professional benefits of all students. 000694092 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000694092 650_0 $$aMiddle school education$$zUnited States. 000694092 650_0 $$aMiddle schools$$zUnited States. 000694092 650_0 $$aMiddle school teachers$$xTraining of$$zUnited States. 000694092 650_0 $$aSchool improvement programs$$zUnited States. 000694092 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBabbage, Keen J.$$tPower of middle school.$$dLanham : Rowman & Littlefield Education, c2012$$z9781610487023$$z9781610487030$$w(DLC) 2012020132$$w(OCoLC)792886288 000694092 8520_ $$bacq 000694092 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000694092 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1031980$$zOnline Access 000694092 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:694092$$pGLOBAL_SET 000694092 980__ $$aEBOOK 000694092 980__ $$aBIB 000694092 982__ $$aEbook 000694092 983__ $$aOnline
