text: Students should design their summer assignments due to the increase in leadership, critical thinking, and development. Schools should not abolish all teacher-assignment assignments as some are important in the education system and developing the student's thinking. However, they should implement more student-designed assignments as it benefits the students in multiple ways. These assignments would be the most effective in the summertime when students are continuing learning through their break. The assignments, in themselves, are evidence that students are making their own creations in a system which can limit this type of thinking. We should allow the students to "want what [they] want to want." Dear state senator,
