Niagara Parks Commission School of Gardening Graduation Program, 1956

The Niagara Parks Commission School of Gardening was organized in 1935 in order to help fill the Commission’s need for skilled gardeners to maintain the extensive parkland owned by the Commission. In 1959 the School was renamed the Niagara Parks Commission School of Horticulture. The name changed again in 1990 to the Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens and School of Horticulture to better reflect the development of the program.

Resumen tomado de la publicaci??n

A new model of school discipline : engaging students and preventing behavior problems.

Las políticas restrictivas, de tolerancia cero y suspensión en los colegios de Estados Unidos no han conseguido mejorar su seguridad ni el comportamiento de los estudiantes, y está creciendo el riesgo de abandono. El autor presenta un nuevo modelo de disciplina transformador que es preventivo, proactivo y basado en la construcción de relaciones y en la consolidación de las habilidades sociales de los estudiantes que les permitirán mejorar su conexión con el colegio. El autor guía a los profesores y administradores para identificar sus necesidades particulares y para seleccionar las estrategias más apropiadas a aplicar en cada nivel de conflicto.

Infant-mother attachment and the growth of externalizing problems across the primary-school years

Background:  Some contend that attachment insecurity increases risk for the development of externalizing behavior problems in children. Method:  Latent-growth curve analyses were applied to data on 1,364 children from the NICHD Study of Early Child Care to evaluate the association between early attachment and teacher-rated externalizing problems across the primary-school years. Results:  Findings indicate that (a) both avoidant and disorganized attachment predict higher levels of externalizing problems but (b) that effects of disorganized attachment are moderated by family cumulative contextual risk, child gender and child age, with disorganized boys from risky social contexts manifesting increases in behavior problems over time. Conclusions:  These findings highlight the potentially conditional role of early attachment in children’s externalizing behavior problems and the need for further research evaluating causation and mediating mechanisms.
