text: School should not require classes to give out summer assignments because it would only cause stress in a preiod of de-stress, it is often meaningless and unfair, and because it often does not help the student learn meaningfully. This is important in terms of the hundreds of thousands students who have to deal with it, but it is not what schools should be focusing on. School administration should not worry about trivial matters such as school assignments, but rather making sure that every student has a stable environment, enough food to eat everyday, and has access to the same educational opportunities as everyone else to allow for them to flourish. Dear Principal
