Students are in classrooms for six hours a day, completing strenuous activities that work our young minds. We are stuck sitting in stiff desks in a bland classroom. Sometimes all we really want is a change in scenery. When we get out for lunch, we are extremely disappointed in the fact that we can't even go get the food we desire. We are stuck on campus left with the cafeteria food, which if you haven't noticed is absolutely disgusting. I talked to the vice principal of Analy High School and asked her about the policies we have surrounding our closed campus. I asked if the school is liable for any off campus injuries, she said no. So if the school isn't liable, then why are they so worried about our safety. My idea is to have something like CSF, where all students go to the library or college and carrier center to apply for an off campus pass. To cover for the lost the school gets from students buying cafeteria food, we could have students pay five dollars for this pass. This way, both the students and school is happy.

All we want is the choice to eat what we want without having to wake up even earlier to make a lunch. |
When students have the option to eat this over a school lunch with less than a half mile walk, they're going to leave campus weather or not its allowed.I see kids leaving campus everyday already, so what is there to lose if we just make is allowed. It would bring ease to both the students and the teachers. The student get what they want to eat and the teachers don't have to watch guard on the entrances of the school.

Safety Issues |
Solution |
I talked to Vice Principle, Shauna Ferdinandson, and asked her what the major safety issues consisted of. She explained "Getting to Safeway and people doing bad stuff around Safeway, and getting caught up in something, from being around someone who decided to shoplift, being out side and running and crossing the street." She explains these dangers that our students face everyday. And yet we still havn't had any injuries occur.

Every Year before the school year starts we have registration. My thought process is we could potentially add a paper into the stack that allows students to leave campus at lunch. This waiver would state that the school is not liable for anything that happens off campus.
