About ernest everett just

Ernest Everett Just was a true scholar. He sought to find "truth" using scientific methods and inquiry. Although Dr. Just was bold enough to challenge the theories of leading biologists of the 19th and 20th centuries, he was humble and unassuming. Dr. Just was passionately driven to understand the world of the cell. His tenacity and motivation led him to add to our understanding of the process of artificial parthenogenesis and the physiology of cell development. Dr. Just was born August 14, 1883 in Charleston, South Carolina. At an early age, he demonstrated a gift for academic research. For example, in 1907, he was the only person to graduate magna cum laude from Dartmouth College with a degree in zoology, special honors in botany and history, and honors in sociology. Immediately after graduation, Dr. Just taught at Howard University where he was appointed head of the Department of Zoology in 1912. At Howard, he also served as a professor in the medical school and head of the Department of Physiology until his death. The first Spingarn Medal was awarded to the reluctant and modest Just by the NAACP in 1915 for his accomplishments as a pure scientist. In 1916, Dr. Just gradutated magna cum laude from University of Chicago receiving his doctorate in experimental embryology. Dr. Just received international acclaim for work he completed during the summers from 1909 to 1930 at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole, Massachusetts. At MBL, he conducted thousands of experiments studying the fertilization of the marine mammal cell. In 1922, he successfully challenged Jaacque Loeb's theory of artificial parthenogenesis, pushing the envelope. Using his research conducted at Wood's Hole, he published his first book entitled, Basic Methods for Experiments on Eggs of Marine Mammals. Although Dr. Just was considered a leader and authority for his work with cell development, as an African American, he experienced racism and prejudice. For this reason, Dr. Just decided to study in Europe in 1930. It was in Europe that he published his second book, The Biology of the Cell Surface. While in Europe in 1938 he published a number of papers and lectured on the topic of cell cytoplasm. Dr. Just died October 27, 1941 in Washington D.C.

Knowing the critical nature of parent involvement in student learning, we place a high premium on the input and involvement of all stakeholders: parents, students, and staff.

Guidance Counseling Center Phone Number: 301.808.4032 Fax Number: 301.808.4071 We work to become not to acquire. The Mission of the Counseling Department is to provide a comprehensive, developmental counseling program addressing the academic, career, and personal/social development of all students. Counselors, who serve as advocates for students, will provide support to maximize student potential and academic achievement and will ensure that all students have access to the knowledge and skills necessary to become productive members of society. Guidance Chairperson: Ms. C. Booker It is rewarding to work with the students, parents, and staff at Ernest Everett Just Middle School. In the field of education there is little that is more rewarding than seeing a young person face the academic and social challenges of middle school, prepare, and implement a plan of action that leads to success that is evidenced on report cards, test scores, and in personal and intellectual interactions. Success and growth are also revealed when students take more responsibility for self and community. I have been a language arts/English teacher for fifteen years, and a counselor for a comparable number of years. The bulk of my experience has been with middle school children. Over the years, as everyone is aware the once neighborhood village has opened up to include the world. Technology and student savvy have made this happen. Consequently our children, parents, and schools are faced with issues that are new, exciting, challenging, and yes, stressful and possibly dangerous. I believe that by standing united (parents, schools, and children), we can make a very positive difference and help prepare our children for high school and beyond and move forward with confidence in meeting the many opportunities that will be presented to them.
