One day‚ the story says‚ America’s great essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson saw a farmer trying to pull a reluctant calf into a barn. The farmer had a rope halter on the calf and was pulling with all his strength‚ but the calf had all four hooves dug into the barnyard mud and wouldn’t budge.

To be perfectly honest‚ when I was nominated to attend We Day last November‚ I was excited for only one shallow reason: some of the cast of Degrassi would be there. Degrassi is a Canadian teen melodrama that I watched religiously throughout my middle school and high school years.

We Day is an event created by the founders of Free the Children that celebrates youth philanthropy

Is Four Days The Way? Many people don’t realize that five days of school is too much for students. Some school districts have changed to a four day school week due to the benefits. However‚ some people don’t agree at all. I believe that school districts made the right decision by changing to a four day school weeks. The National Education Association should consider making this change too because it saves schools money‚ improves test scores‚ and increases student attendance. One compelling
