If I was The Principal for one Day
If Ms. Gaitens were to go to a really important meeting and she asked me to fill in for her, there would be some changes. Don't get me wrong she is doing her best to make this school better for us but maybe she is not pushing us enough or maybe she is pushing us to much that we can't handle. Most of our grades are slipping because of little things. Maybe because Ms. Lines takes points off because we accidentally write a fragment. Or maybe kids are being judgemental and the students and teachers keep having arguments. Some of the students think of themselves as failures. Nobody fails unless they quit. Things need to change and I would be the right person for the job. If I was the principal for one day I would enforce many rules. One of them would be backpack checks. The reason for this is that what you bring to school in your backpack should always be school appropriate. But female teachers would check the girls' backpacks for several reason. Candy should be allowed at school but they should keep it in a lunch box to eat at lunch and lunch only. Another reason kids are having such a hard time in school is because of the teachers. Ms. Gaitens keeps changing all of the teachers here after we already started to like and grow a relationship with them. When we talk to the teachers they always think they are right when really half the time we have no clue of what they are even talking about. When students go up to a teacher to have a conversation it seem like the teachers do all of the talking and we don't get a say in it. Freedom of speech is a big thing here. We just get pushed around. This is our school too, and we need to be able to confront the teachers of how we feel! The work here is easy and there is a lot of boredom going on around here when we get done. We should be allowed to read or work on anything yet the teachers tell us what needs to be done after we finish our work. This is some of the rules i would enforce if Ms. Gaitens hired me to fill in if she had to go to a meeting. I just want this school to feel warm, loving, and like I fit in. There is way to much drama and gossip going around. This is not the type of school I want to go to. Lets change our school attitude and be the best school ever!
