Students are unhappy with the seat arrangement during lunches.

Students should be able to choose where they sit at lunch rather than sitting alphabetically. As older teenagers we naturally thrive off of social interaction especially during our one academic break of the day, and getting that taken away from us is hard on the student population because of how isolated some of us are away from the people we talk to.

Lunch is supposed to be the time where students can talk to their friends, rather than sit in silence around people that they most likely do not know or talk to. As long as everyone will stay in their same seat throughout the year and follow the other guidelines, students should be allowed to choose where they can sit.

Instead of what we have now, we should allow students to pick a new permanent seat for the rest of the semester and have one more seat change in the second semester.

If we make these changes, hybrid learning would be better for students.
