Opinion: I agree with the majority on this one, we as students do not lose our rights when we enter the school and we should be allowed to demonstrate within the school as per our first amendment right. The school system does not have the authority to dictate our…
What are some cons for public schools to change the school to an all year round school? Educators shouldn’t make the school an all year round school because the students will get less time to be with their families, less time with their outside school activities, and also more time in school would be harder for the students to pay attention.…
With only a fraction of the states in the United States enacting laws that require seatbelts on school buses, most of the 23.5 million children who commute on school buses do so without the safety of a seat belt. Seat belts should be required on all school buses, not just on smaller buses or specials needs buses. This additional safety measure must be available for all who travel in a school bus. Even though opponents to seat belts suggest that requiring them would be costly, and result in diminished seating capacity / bus availability on routes, an average cost of $1.50 per child per year is a small price to pay to ensure children 's safety. With the time that children spend on school buses during the school year, belts should be a requirement just as they are in passenger cars. Considering all the fatalities and injuries that have occurred, seat belts could have changed the…

Since July 17, 1984, when the United States Congress enacted the National Minimum Drinking Age Act, people only above the age of 21 could have the opportunity to legally purchase and publically possess an alcoholic beverage. The Congress’s purpose for establishing the law was primarily to combat motorist under the influence of alcohol, as the death rate of traffic accidents were significantly high before 1984 in the US where the typical minimum age to drink was 18. Which is the average age for a first year student in college, and apparently the age where minors become involved around alcohol. Meanwhile, it has been nearly unavoidable to prevent underage students in college the consumption of alcohol. As according to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, about four out five college students drink…
Seat belts are required in almost all vehicles except school buses. Have you ever wondered why a bus that transports up to 80 children at a time does not have a seat belt policy?

In the past and even now, people have been discussing if the State of Florida should raise the age for students in school. Students should stay in school until 18 for two reasons. One reason is because they will get a higher education. Another reason is because they will get a better job and income. On the opposing side, some people argue that students should not stay in school until they're 18 because classroom issues arise from these students. However, there are many more significant reasons for students should stay in school until 18.…
When most people think of the word school busing, they get the mental picture of a big yellow school bus. This big, yellow school bus goes out to the towns' neighborhoods and picks up all the towns' kids and brings them to school to receive their educations'. On most occasions, they are brought to the nearest school that is usually within their own neighborhood. Technically, this picture is correct, but it is not the same type of busing we will be discussing. The school busing we will be…
The first issue to consider about this bill is how it would affect the way students are able to obtain jobs. This may not be a large impact on students who live in cities where public transportation is readily available, but it causes multiple problems with students who live in small towns or out in the country. To start, the lack of public transportation or a legal license to allow students to get to their place of work will make them unable to arrive at work on time or at all. The inability to get to their workplace on time make a student seem unreliable. This can also cause these students to be fired or keep them from maintaining a job. Most businesses allow you to be late or absent to work unexcused only twice before you are put on probation and three times before firing you. This becomes a major issue with students because the chances of them missing work due to the lack of transportation increases, especially if they are unable to acquire a license. The addition of this bill will create a impact on our student work force.…
