The school board plans to add one and a half hours to school each day. Do you agree or disagree with extending the school day? Currently we have school for 6 hours. School starts at 7:30 and ends at 2:45. So when adding an extra 30 minutes that means that students won’t get out of school until 3:05. So students on first run won’t be home until probably 3:20 and 2nd run won’t be home until 3:40 around. Do i think that schools should add an extra 30 minutes? No, because well get home later we have to sit in the classroom for another 30 minutes.
I highly disagree with this situation about the school adding half of an hour. I will explain why it’s a bad decision. It is not a smart idea just to keep children in the school for an hour because
I strongly disagree with the Dickenson County School Board extending each school day by one and a half hours. I feel an extension will not benefit students and staff. The school days are long enough as it is. Students and staff may not have enough time to do other activities after school hours. Adding more and more hours to school will result in an abundance of stress on everyone involved. The school board needs to take into consideration all of the negative impact this extension will have on our schools.
The school board plans to add one and a half hours to school each day. Do you agree or disagree? I disagree strongly on this topic because school is already stressful and having to do one hour and a half of work each school day probably make us just absolutely hate school. That one hour and a half can change a lot, because of being so bored because could do some very dumb things which could cause people's lives to be changed.
I strongly disagree with the decision of my school board, Dickenson County School Board, for making the decision to extend the school day an hour and a half. I believe that this decision will not help the students or staff who are affected by this decision. Extending the school day is a horrible decision because we go to school long enough as it is, also students and staff cannot do the activities after school that they enjoy. Lastly, addition to more time at school will cause students to stress more than they already do. I believe the school board should listen to the people who will be affected by this decision before a massive mistake is made.
How would you feel if your school wanted to add an hour and a half to the school day? There would be lots of controversy over this topic. Many students will argue not to add the hour and a half to the school day. But, some teachers will want to add that time to have more time to study. The teachers would also like to study more on the SOL so that students would get better grades. The hour and a half should not be added to the school day because students will miss after school activities; students will have less sleep; students will get bad grades.
Many parents and students believe that school starts too early,I agree with them school hours should be pushed back.But some may argue why would this be necessary,or what can this change affect them. This change is beneficial for the students,in many ways such as conduct,grades,and tardies that is why pushing back school one hour will help and I will tell you how.
There is no reason why schools shouldn’t extend the school day. The obvious solution to these problems is just to extend the school day and turn it into the four day week. Changing this can help the students now and the soon to be students by giving them a better learning experience and end up doing better in life in general. The extended school day has been used in some schools across the U.S. and has proven to work just as or better than the normal day. The extended school day will not only affect the lives of the students helping them to succeed it will also better our society if the next generation of workers are well educated and
Long has the topic of longer school days been a controversial debate among parents, teachers, and students. In recent years, discussions about the length of school days have influenced states and school districts to change the amount of time students spend at school. The question becomes whether longer school days can help improve the academic performance of students. There are different views on the length of school days when it comes to student performance. The people who advocate longer school days are debating on what they believe is of greater interest to students. Proponents to longer school days believe that they are debating in the greater interest of students as well.
I am strongly opposed with the Dickenson County school boards plans to extend our school day an extra hour and a half. I do not feel that this extension would help the students in our schools. Our school days are all ready seven hours a day so in addition to this seven hours of school would make it eight and a half hours. Adding this extension would kill us. We would not have near enough time for anything after school. We would have to just focus on our school work and nothing else because we would also be under a lot of stress. That is my reason why that this is a bad idea.
Most students despise the thought of more school hours. I disagree with the majority, I think that there are great benefits to extending school hours. I have three reasons to support my opinion. Students could get more work done, preparing them better for a higher college education. Stay safer, and not face the dangers of the streets. Students could take more classes, which could give them more high school credits to possibly graduate quicker. I think these are crucial reasons to consider when the debate of extending school comes up.
Do you agree that school should only be till noon. If so, then continue reading this article and I will give my reasons and even some reasons why I think it might work.
Will extending the school day really help? If they do raise the time for school, that extra time should go towards our lunch.
Hello, I am Rachel Jimenez, a seventh-grade student of the Monticello Middle School. This semester we have been given the opportunity research a topic we feel strongly about. For this, I researched the idea of changing school times, letting the middle and high school have the later time, and the elementary school would have the earlier time that the middle and high school currently has. I believe it would be very effective in our school district if we were able to do so.
Could you imagine going to school or work for extra hour longer than what you normally would? Most of children, and adults would not be too happy about this. That is one of the many reasons why the school schedule should not be extended. Some say that the school day for students should be extended and made longer. But others ask if that if that extra time would really be beneficial for everyone's learning? In some cases where a school's district extended the day, they saw no improvement in areas where they hoped to see it. It is also said that the additional time may not be used as it is intended for, and that is just too expensive. Overall, extending the school day for children is not a good option, for it doesn't show much improvement, is
Are school board is proposing an idea to stay an extra hour and I disagree.
The school board plans to add one and a half hours to school each day. I do not agree with extending the school day. Simply because it’s not necessary . People have other things to do. Also, because some people can’t stand school because of things that go on and it’s bad enough with the 6-8 hours we have right now. So, if it was up to me we wouldn’t even have 6 or 8 hours a day it would be more like 4 or 5 because I could understand why some kids don’t want to be in school.
