MWHS does not have classes that adhere to everyone’s interest. Students are not interested in their classes so this may cause them to lose motivation and will no longer be excelling in these classes. Their grades may start to decline and they will not be as excited to go to school. If students enjoy the classes they are taking usually their grades will increase along with their interest. In my case, I would love to take different elective classes that MWHS does not offer. If I were to move to a bigger school that offers these classes the environment may not be the same. In a bigger school their are bigger class sizes and you do not get to have the same connection with your teachers. The classes I would be interested in taking …show more content…
would be health classes, different science classes and life skills classes.
This problem has no easy fix. It will take time to slowly bring in more classes and bring in teachers to teach these new classes. First, the school will need to decide which classes to add to the elective class choices. This could be done by polls or surveys to ensure that they are adding classes that students have interest in. Next, we will need to add the classes that are the most popular with students. The classes that I think MWHS should add would be more health classes, different language choices, home economics, financing/money management, first aid or more specific science classes. The solution is not going to easy to implement and there are some people against adding more elective classes.
I think we have a problem at MWHS but some would disagree.
Some people say that we don’t need “hobby classes” and adding elective classes is not a good use of the schools money. If we have more classes that students enjoy attendance may go up, grades may go up and overall enjoyment of school for students may increase. We have put money into the art and athletic departments so we should improve the other departments in the school. Others might say that some of these classes won’t prepare us for college. I would disagree. These classes might not prepare you for the academic side of college but it will help with everyday tasks. A money management class might teach you about student loans and how to balance a checkbook. Moving out and living without your family can be a big change and some of these classes could make these switch a little
easier.
I hope you can see the lack of elective class options is a problem at MWHS, but there is a solution that can easily be implemented. I have confidence that in the near future we will add more classes at MWHS so kids can be of a class that they enjoy going to everyday.
