Reflection #2

One common practice in schools that I would like to change would be that students are not allowed to bring backpacks to school with them or take anything home with them. I know what you’re thinking but the schools can provide all of the books and materials in the classroom. Why are students bringing backpacks that are full of things that they do not need. Think about it? Some students bring drugs, guns, knives, phones and any type of other miscellaneous stuff in their backpacks. If we eliminate students from bringing backpacks and purses, we will decrease the problem. Also this means the students have to keep up with the studies in the classroom and the teachers need to be better prepared to create a study plan that will benefit the students.  Students are in the classroom for more than 7 hours a day. All work should be completed within the 7 hours. I think once the safety of our children is secured then the schools will run better academically.
