LET KIDS STAY IN SCHOOL AFTER HOURS
By Kevin Mackey

Way to go Kayhi. I've noticed that ever since the NEW Athletics Director started working, changes were made. Some of which are ridiculous. My senior year, the staff started attempting to kick kids out of the school after school hours. You had to be a part of some association or an extra curricular activity, or with a teacher, to be allowed to stay. We used to play hacky-sack, until they decided those were contraband inside the school halls. Security reasons? Really? Why does every hall have a camera? If they are so worried about security, why don't they post hall guards? Maybe the SBA could do something....oh wait... that's right, being in the SBA is like drawing in the sand at the beach, there's not much you can do to stand up to the tide.

In short, I say if kids WANT TO STAY IN THE SCHOOL AFTER HOURS, LET THEM.
