Students Should Be Penalized for Missing Class

Nowadays many students still miss classes for no reason. Why do students do like that? Maybe there is no penalty. On the other hands, some students still attend the classes because they know that they can get better grades more easily if they attend the classes. So penalizing students for missing class will increase students go to school and to improve a lot of good things to their lives is better, and the following some benefit will show why student should be penalized for missing class.

The first benefit of penalizing students for missing class is students can get good grades. Teachers who have a wealth of knowledge about specific fields can teach students a lot of useful information and can explain in an easy way to understand. They have to lecture in a limited time, and they may tell students important points of the lecture and may give some tips for exams. If students attended the class, they would be more likely to get good grades easily than other students who didn't attend the class.

The second benefit of penalizing students for missing class is it may reduce the possibility for students to do bad action. According to a research that the problem of students being absent from school is directly related to crimes of youth people.

If students attended the class, the possibility of young people committing crimes would be reduced.

The third benefit of penalizing for missing class is that students can learn the way to follow regulations. For example, after graduating school, when they work for a company they will face a lot of regulations, limitations and rules. However, they will easily adapt to them because they

    They back talk teachers, skip class, and get up and leave class. Some students don’t care about school and their grades, most of them don’t even do their homework and half the time they fail test/quizes. So they’ll probably be a decrease in grades, and maybe even an increases in absents. On the other hand there’s students who want to learn, get good grades, and they take the time to study for tests/quizes so they don’t fail. But they may be getting home later so they won’t have time to study or do homework, but if they study they’ll be going to bed late so in the morning they may be feeling tired and worn out.…

    Also of course, there are those students who simply do not wish to learn. If those students are passes on to the next grade they will continue to not learn. This would be a waste of time towards both teacher and student. The teacher would then not really be able to help those who wish to learn.

    6 Hour School Hours

    To begin, with more time in class students have much more time in class to ask questions. In class with only having 49 minutes teachers do not have enough time in class to get through everything they need to and still answer students questions. Asking questions is a important part in the learning process and is one of the key ways to learn. Therefore a 6 hour block will improve learning. Also, a 6 hour block will improve students grades. EJMHS students do not have the best grades. In fact this year on the NWEA testing there was almost a 20 point difference in understanding reading, and reading. This is a big issue. Students need more time in class to learn more. They do not have enough time in class to learn as much as they can and sometimes they are quizzed on subjectsthey haven't learned enough of. If students are able to have more time in class students will be able to take more in during class and be able to keep up. It is also hard to keep up at the pace that some of the teachers are going at now. Sometimes students end up just writing down the shorthand of what the teacher says and they don't ask questions on what they are confused on. Students need to be able to ask questions, if teachers are going 100 miles per hour in class the students are more focused on writing down what the…

    Schools in today’s society are made up of the students who spend their time studying and students that are involved in extracurricular activities. The ones who spend their afternoons practicing and not doing their work slowly fall behind. Many students miss a lot of school and school work due to events happening during school. They are given several days to do make-up work. This puts the idea in their head that school doesn’t come first. When truth is told, college life does not work that way. If an hour a day were set aside for studying, nothing else happening. It would give the students more time to study at school, As well giving the students their work before they miss a class for events, would prevent them from falling behind. This would also show that grades are not handed out to these students and that school does come first.…

    It’s not only beneficial for students, its great for teachers as well. Teachers are always scrambling for the first two-three minutes of class just trying to get thing together. Putting on more time would get rid of that problem by allowing teachers to get things ready an set up for the class. Are teachers are not robots, not yet at least. They need to use the restroom too. So instead of leaving during the middle of class to go, they would now have plenty of time to do their business before class even starts. However the bad thing about adding more time is that they get a little less class time. So doing this would be working up to when the bell rings.…

    Off Campus Essay

    Truancy can occur among students if an open campus is accepted. If students have the privilege to leave school for fifty whole minutes on their own, then they have the freedom to not come back. It would break the trust between students and educators, and harsher rules would have to be enforced on the open campus rule. Numerous students who decide to ditch the remaining periods would have an excessive amount of in-school absences. This could lead to parent conferences and suspension, and possibly expulsion in some cases. When a student misses or skips a class, the information taught that day would not be accessible in the same format which others have learned. One's academic grades can be effected from lack of information by truancy. Irresponsible students who choose to take the risk of leaving their school after lunch for the remainder of the day will not have this opportunity if an open campus is kept closed.…
