Start a School Soccer Team

by Kodi

The reason why I think schools should have soccer teams is quite self-explanatory. It’ll make kids more active. It'll help them represent the school. People say kids hate school but if there are soccer teams it’ll make them more excited to go to school. If students participate in these soccer teams it could lead to a career possibly getting them into varsity, or maybe even FIFA.

Why we should NOT have nachos at lunch

By: Maddie Frantum

I believe that we should not have nachos at lunch. One reason we shouldn’t have nachos at lunch is because the nutritional value is lacking, for example it is 11 grams short of the recommended amount of protein for our age. Also, it is far over the recommended amount of sodium. Another season I think they shouldn’t serve nachos at lunch because we need more of a variety. They serve this once every week and I think we need different options. Finally, we shouldn't have nachos because not many students like them. ⅔ students I asked said they didn’t like them because; “The cheese is plastic,” and “It looks like mystery meat.” These are the reasons I think they shouldn’t serve nachos at lunch.

FOOTBALL IS BETTER THAN SWIMMING !!!!!

By : ZACH GROSS 

I think that football is better than swimming and here’s why .

First of all there are a lot more people who watch or follow football . In the Olympics there were 300 million  people at one point watching swimming but in the superbowl there were 341 million watching . And swimming all you are doing is watching people going back and forth for a long time and it can get boring . Also some of the swimming races can get really long and you can lose interest and get tired of watching it  . Wall football is full of people hitting and loud crowds that I bet that will keep you awake . And that is why football is better than swimming .  But if your parents do not want you to get hurt I bet they will want you to play swimming and not football because football is a higher packet sport than swimming . That is my opinion that football is better than swimming .

Better School Lunches 

By Ainsley Watson 

There should be better school lunch options because of nutrition, better academic performances, better behavior.

Nutrition needs to be better because it doesn’t have the nutrients the food needs to have, for example it doesn’t have saturated fat that kids need to help their bodies and brain grow.

Better food would help academic performance. First, the ingredients that the food doesn’t have doesn’t help them focus, for example it has too much sugar and increases risk of disease like diabetes, cancer, even heart disease .

If we give kids better food their behavior will improve, which leads to better grades ,longer attention spans also function.

Why we should have more recess 

by Arian

We should have more recess time in school because fifteen minutes is not enough time to play. I think we should shorten lunch because nobody really wants to stay in the lunchroom for recess time. In my opinion we should go back to 2 recess and keep them at 15 minutes each but lengthen classes.And actually extra recess can improve student physical activity for pe and it can help people pay more attention and remember more things. It frees the mind, helps people have more creative activities, socializing, learning life skills, etc.  This is why recess should be longer than 15 minutes.

Which Football Team Is Better Iowa Or Iowa State

By: Jackson S

I think that Iowa is better than Iowa state because Iowa normally always beats Iowa state. The University of Iowa often ranks higher for its liberal arts programs and overall reputation. Iowa won 15 straight Cy-Hawk games between 1983 and 1997. In total football games  Iowa leads 48–23. Kirk Ferentz that coaches Iowa is the best coach ever he has been coaching for 25 seasons. As a head coach Ferentz holds a 208-140 record in 28 seasons. In addition to serving as Iowa's head coach for 25 seasons, Ferentz has been a member of the Iowa coaching staff for 34. Even though Iowa State may have won this year, Iowa has a better record. Iowa State almost lost at the last second but they made a lucky kick.

My opinion about Alex Morgan

By Catherine

I think Alex Morgan is the best soccer player in the world. Alex Morgan is the best player in the world because she has won the World Cup twice and has won the gold and bronze medal in the Olympics. She has been on the USA National team since 2010 and scored 123 goals for the National team. Alex Morgan was in the USWNT and played for the San Diego wave; she scored 173 goals for the San Diego wave. Alex Morgan has recently retired from soccer. But she will always be the best player in my mind.
