Mouthing Off
Our school is very unique and stands out very much. Although unique, we still have times when there are some things that a lot of the kids are not to happy with and want to change it. One thing that we would like to discuss is the schools dress code system. A lot of kids do not have a problem with it, but then again a lot of kids do. I think the dress code is very cooperative. Asking students to wear collared shirts should not be a problem, most of the students follow that and they do get noticed for it.
Another thing is the school lunch. I have a couple of friends that are vegetarians and do not eat the school lunch because of the fact that they mostly serve meat. There is a salad stand and that is nice considering the people who don’t eat meat, but a lot of students still feel hungry and feel left out sometimes. They feel that they are different than their friends because they’re eating something different. Some students are asking that they don’t serve meat that often and try to serve something different once in a while.
There is just one more thing that students find well, sort of annoying. Most of the things that happen after school with us don’t like the teachers to know. Some of the students do things that are inappropiate so that stuff is okay for the teachers to know about, but then there are some things like the time they should be home and how long it takes them to get home. Most of the kids like to hang out after school because during the school day because we don’t really have that much time. I think after school we should have a little more freedom as to what they are doing and who they are with.
Based on what I wrote, my opinion is as follows: to those first three statements I do agree with the school dress code and I would think that students wouldn’t have a problem and actually we could have more students following the dress code. Towards the school lunch I think that the vegetarians should bring their own lunch but the lunch ladies should still provide more vegetarian meals and a little less meat. Finally as far as the kids that like to hang out after school, I totally agree with the students. I am one of those kids that like to hang out, and I don’t know a lot of students that do that many inappropriate things after school.
I would love to see other student’s opinion. Drop me a line and let me know what you think.
Thank You!

I think your right. Many people do have a problem with dress code, but I myself think people should be able to express themselves by what they wear. I also think there should be more variety in our lunch for meat eaters and vegetarians.Thank you for your time.

i deffinitley agree with you totaly and think that the school lunch ladies probably could make more of a vegetarian meal once in a while. The dress code is not that much of big deal. It’s only a collard shirt and we are allowed to wear jeans. Thanks for trying to stick up for our schoool!

I think the teachers should know just about every problem students have. After all, they were kids like us, and they got through their problems.

I do agree on changing the school lunch. I also like the idea on wearing jeans as a ress code, too!! Maybe we should change things things.
