My opinion on summit middle school

By AJ

I have some ideas of how we can improve things at Summit. My opinion is I think we should eat snack at the end of the day or have nap time for 30 minutes because students work better after being well rested.I think we should have short days on Friday because there is no point in having it on Wednesday.I also think we shouldn’t have base camp and we should just go to classes.I don’t think we should have groups to dismiss either, just dismiss us all at one time.I don’t think we should have a or b days. Those are my opinions on Summit.

School lunches

Alyssa Rea

Personally I feel like school lunches doesn’t give us enough nutritional value. Some days all we have for lunch is 3 chicken strips and an orange, some kids go home hungry because school lunch just didn’t fill them up, here’s what we might be able to do to change this.

School lunch should at least have 2 choices, main choice, other main choice. But most of the time it’s in really small portions, and there’s barely any good choices to go on the side. Some people would rather have something fresh like a fruit than steamed vegetables or as hard as a rock cookie’s. Also some of the food just doesn’t look okay, personally a little while ago for lunch we had hamburgers and I think mac n cheese. I open the hamburger to put my condiments on it and I flip over the meat and this is what it looks like. The top looks normally cooked then the bottom just looks horrible. Now to get back on topic, school lunch should have a lot of nutrition and choices to choose from. There should be more side portions. Plus schools should put a little more money and effort into school lunches.

Us students should really inform the staff about these issues sometimes. As well as telling our parents so maybe if you can you could bring lunch to school instead of getting it in school.

Bus or Car

By PJ

In this article I am going to give you my opinion on taking the bus to school. I think that taking the bus to school has great benefits. For one, when you take the bus it doesn’t get in the way of parents being late for their work. This would help a lot if parents have early jobs to get to. Taking the bus is also a good time to talk to your friends in the morning if you don’t see them at school. It’s also a much more interesting morning instead of waiting in the parent drop off line. I would say the one downside of taking the bus is that if you have an early stop, you have to be prepared earlier than getting dropped off. That concludes my article of why in my opinion taking the bus is a better alternative than driving.

Should Schools keep sports?

By Ellah K.

My opinion on school sports is that we should have it if some parents aren’t able to drive their kid or kids for other sports not at school. Or if you can’t afford other sports teams. Also you can get higher grades, score higher on tests or assignments, and you are more likely to stick around for graduation too. Some schools don’t like to do them because some people may go just because of friends and not get as much exercise as they are supposed to get. Or because your child may get hurt easily depending on the supervision around them. But I still think that they are good for and if you are at school I assume that there will be plenty of supervision around the students and discipline for the students
