At Sullivan Heights, we have divided ourselves in different levels of hierarchy. The top level of the pyramid is the principals. They are prone to act as leaders and role models in the school. It is their duty to create a educational atmosphere and shape a vision of academic success. The next level is the staff of the school. They are there to maintain the school in proper shape and to set excellent examples in front of students. However, teachers always try to improve their teaching skills in order for them to teach at their best and for students to learn to their utmost. After that comes the senior students of the school which include the grade 11's and 12's. These students set a great example for the junior students. They are the ones who are more experienced and show leadership attributes to the junior students. At the bottom of the pyramid, come the junior students which are in grades 8 to 10. They have little to no experience in high school as these are their first couple of years here. They are learning how to become a high school student and how to be confident in their actions.
Based on this hierarchy, we value the top of the pyramid. Essentially we value what the principals have to say or believe. Those are the decisions and rules and regulations that we follow in order to be part of the school community. The decisions that the principals make are the ones that are followed by the staff and students. Although, they are considered as the head of the school, they are the ones that have the most power and the most authority to take an action in the school community.
In my opinion, I totally agree with Piaget's theory of adolescent egocentrism. I agree with his theory because this actually exists and teenagers do what they think is right and don't want to listen to what others have to say to them. They are self-centered where they don't care what others think about them and just want to do what they think is correct.
