I believe essay draft

High school; Where education is priority, freinds are made, and where life lessons are gone through, taught, and learned. High school is pretty much life. High school teaches everything you need to know in life when it comes to passing classes, finding a job, or being a good friend and student. I believe in high school and the traditional American school system; 5 days of school in a week and 4 years of high school that includes freshmen, sophomore, junior, and senior years. I am happy about the free education America has given to its potential world leaders (students). Students in America can go to school for free and absorb all the things we need in order to succeed in life. But controversy over new school policies in Hawaii will make me appreciate school so much more.

"Its Furlough Fridays at Moanalua High school Now." Is what I kept hearing at school around the begining of last year October. It was actually Furlough Friday for all public schools in the state of Hawaii and it would be going into effect at the end of October. Hawaii's government had cut off one day of school to help with budgets for the economy. That would not mean not having school on Friday for certain weeks of the year. That would mean a student's day at school cut off, a student's learning and education as well. But there's more than that. Hawaii is also thinking about having 3 years of high school and cutting out our senior year. Horrible isn't? We already have one day less of school on certain weeks then your going to cut off another year as well? Where will all the learning go? Where will all the education go if you cut off even more?

I believe in high school; I believe in a failing grade but improvement. I believe in taking tests, raising your hand in class to anwser a quedtion. I believe in high school events; Going to home coming games on Fridays, dances, winter fans, and the famous junior and senior proms. I believe that students are the up most potential leaders of the earth. I see us as rocket scientists, lawyers, ministers, business people, entreprenuers, singers, actos, and models. I see us making a change in life. I see us finding a cure for cancer, saving earth from global warming, and finding peace in the Middle East and giving help in developing countries. But cutting opff more time in school won't let us achieve these wonderful dreams.
