Divorce at Jenks
In a world where communications, availability and freedom can get the best of us, making a lifelong commitment can be implausible for many adults. According to the University of Maryland (UofM) [Stratification, Sociology 441: studies on sociology of inequality], divorce rates have risen from 10 in 1000 to 20 in 1000, nearly doubling from the mid-1900s to 2000s. As of now, estimates for divorce rates are as high as 500/1000, or 50% if not greater. This problem is pressing and global, and it is no stranger to many students at Jenks High School. Students who are victims of parental divorce suffer internal trepidation that cannot be effectively explained, but there are extensive resources available to these students.

With recent discoveries in school and learning environments, multiple states have developed new school standards and withdrew from the Common Core, including Oklahoma, which runs under the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE) that develops frameworks for required courses like mathematics, sciences, fine arts, english and social studies.
