text: However, some students may find it rude to be forced to do an activity. We have homework and activities outside of school ,so why do we have to stay at school for an extra hour? In order to make everyone agree with the idea of having to participate in a club we have to fix the problems. Yes, students have homework to do, so we can have each club have a specific day of the week to prevent students from staying after everyday. Another issue is what if parents can't pick up their child? Then in that case the school will provide transportation from the school to the students bus stop. There is no reason why students shouldn't join clubs. Activities at your school can help you be involved, make friends, and you could enjoy the club. This is why I agree that students should have to at least participate in one extracurricular activity.Dear Principal: I think we should have cell phones during lunch periods and other free times because, it will give us a chance to talk to our other friends in different classes. We shouldn't have our cell phones on in class because it will distract you from listening to instructions. When you don't listen to instructions or what the teacher is telling you, you won't learn the material for the day. Cell Phones should only be used for emergencies only because certain teens don't know how to use during free time. For example, if you don't bring your phone to school how would your parent know if you're doing extra stuff after school. If your parents don't know then they will get worried about if you are safe or not. In some ways it's important to have a cell phone. During lunch time and free time that's the time to take out your phone because when you take it out in class when you're not supposed to, your phone gets taken away and your mad at the teacher for your mistake. If your going to have a phone just know how to use the phone in your free time and whenever an adult in school tells you to use it. Having your phone on during class is distracting because if you forgot to turn down the ring volume and it goes off in class, your phone will probably get taken away by your teacher.
