Students Of Lovejoy High School Case Study

Decent Essays
To sum it all up, we as students need to stand up and petition the Clayton County Board of Education to renovate our school. We as students don't want our school looking a billion years old. All of the other high schools that we visit for games and competitions have nice schools that are pleasant to the eyes such as Drew High School, Mundy's Mill High School, and more. When other high schools come to play at games or competitions at our school we don't want to show them the messed up bathrooms, food on the floor and writing on the walls. How would it feel if you came back to this school for your high school reunion and it looked the exact same from when you left?(Rhetorical Question) Students of Lovejoy High School let's stand up and petition

Clif Greim states that “schools built in the 1960s and ’70s generally lack architectural character, are not energy-efficient and are constructed of cheaper materials”(Greim).

From traffic build ups outside at every school entrance available to major congestion…

There is not a motivation to encourage them to take highly demanding courses, and since they are new in the system, they are unable to complain for something different. In addition, even if they complain, they are excluded from the option of taking a harder class because of the English level they can handle. The argument is unfair for those who excel in mathematical and scientific ability but lack of English proficiency.…
