Peer Interview
Interviewee: Richard Luttrull
How old are you?
I am 16 years old.
Richard how would you describe your personality?
I would describe myself as mellow and laidback because I always stay to myself. I’ve attended Port Allen High before but I just recently transferred from Brusly High and people don’t seem as friendly anymore.
What are your opinions about the school, both positive and negative?
Well, I think that the disciplinary consequences that are put in place are better than they have ever been. That’s because it’s not as much confusion and drama. The teachers also have great teaching tactics. However, the lunch is disgusting and at times teachers are very disrespectful. …show more content…
The cell phone policy doesn’t make sense to me either. I think that’s its infantile to take somebody’s phone if it’s in their pocket. I think phones should only be confiscated if someone is seen physically using it.
What things would you change about the upcoming 2014-2015 school year?
Me personally, I would take away uniforms.
I would take it away because it’s uncomfortable and I dislike the strict dress code. I also think that people should be able to express themselves through other clothing but not provocative.
Richard what about the less fortunate? Don’t you think that taking uniform out of school will cause more bullying. Bullying to the people who can’t afford what others can afford.
I think that when that time comes for those people then they should handle that situation the best they can. Also isn’t that’s where the NO BULLYING policy comes into play? I just think that others shouldn’t have to suffer for some peoples disadvantages.
Throughout the 2013-2014 school years what would you say were your strengths and weaknesses?
I would say Civics class was my strength throughout the school year because of Coach Richards’s teaching method. Coach Richard’s class is very laidback however; it’s a great learning environment. Another strength I would consider is my change in attitude. I’ve come a long way; I care more about others than myself. My weakness was Algebra1. I chose this class because I could never catch on to anything we used to do in class. My teacher knew the information but could not teach it the right way, she was never consistent with her teaching
methods.
What was your favorite and least favorite class of this school year?
Fine Arts Survey was my favorite class this year because I was able to show off my talent that everyone doubted me of. Also I finally had people to appreciate my art and compliment the work I had done. Algebra 1 was my least favorite because I couldn’t excel in it the way I knew I could.
Who would you say is your inspiration? Is there anyone you look up too?
My role model is Marilyn Monroe because I love the way she lived her life. Marilyn was very nonchalant and open. She didn’t stop her career because of what others thought of her. Even though she didn’t finish school she continued to succeed in commercials and movies. I think it came natural to her to be who she was. So now I just am who I am no matter what anyone says.
If you could sum up the school years in 5 words what will they be?
I would say that IT HAS ALL CAME TOGTHER!!
