debated whether or not we should have longer school days. Many people said we should stick to 7(seven) hour school days‚ because if we have longer days then kids can’t be focused and they won’t have a lot of time with family.

In my life I’ve learned many lessons. One lesson that has stuck to me and is important to me is to think before speaking and acting. I’ve learned this lesson from many experiences I had. One experience was when I was in middle school and I thought I could do and say whatever I wanted to the teachers but I couldn’t. I kept getting in trouble‚ but as time went on I started realizing I need to grow up and think before I do and say things. In the novel “The Five People You Meet in Heaven” by Mitch

Who can resist the juicy‚ beef packed tacos piled high with lettuce‚ tomatoes‚ cheese‚ and a generous dollop of sour cream? It’s no brainer that Wentworth should have Taco Bell in the cafeteria. The food chain encompasses everything us students look for in a meal that we can’t find in the Wentworth cafeteria: cheaply priced food‚ variety‚ and convenience

Why would teachers want longer school days‚ when our normal days are long enough. If we extend our days with another 30 minutes‚ then it has been proven that all together it would add up to 200 extra hours of school each year.
