It is a topic, often discussed about amongst students and school all across America. “Should PE be mandatory?” students and teachers often debate on whether to make PE mandatory. Although many students claim that PE is a fun way to exercise, some students think otherwise. Many students say that PE is a waste of time, is more torture than it is education. Even though some students are against PE, PE classes are shown to help students develop fine motor skills, cooperation, teamwork, and reduces…

Do you want to pick your own clothes when getting ready for school? Or are you forced to wear a school uniform? Many schools have school uniforms in the United States. Many of those students want to wear their own clothes but they are forced to wear a school uniform. Schools make students wear ugly grey clothes, when they can wear any color or variety of clothing they have. I believe that any student can wear what they want to wear. The schools shouldn’t pick what they wear. I think that schools…

school and high school should be a part in a club or sport. I love meeting new people, especially when we both have the same interests. When in a club or sport you can make so many new friends, but don’t just take my word for it, here is what a college…

I wish I could say everyday at work was fun and easy, but when working with children that is never the case. I started working for the Moon family at the beginning of my senior year of high school, where I came after school and kept them for a couple hours everyday. Each day was the same routine. The same salty snack, the same daily dirty chores, and most importantly the same crazy kiddos. Back in the spring I was asked keep them over the summer, and little did I know what I was getting myself…

Students Vs. Athletes Over the past few decades, it was considered unnatural for athletes to get the same treatment as an individual who did their best to succeed in school. Thanks to their social popularity for being physically talented and their excused absences due to practices during the school day, some teachers often give athletes an advantage over others who aren’t athletic. A rising question of conflict continues to rise amongst their peers; Is it right for athletes to get treated…

My school community is filled with opportunities to make the world a better place for others. There are so many service trips and groups dedicated to fundraising at my school, which I've also participated in, but there was an atmosphere dedicated to just trying to raise the most money possible and send it off somewhere. That's why now, as group leader of the Philosophy Club, my advisor and I try to emphasize that this club isn't about raising money but instead trying to create a space for…

Lake House Last summer When I was invited to a friend’s lake house my heart sank deeply, because it meant I would have to miss a very important hockey tournament, but in the end it turned out to be one of the best weekends of the summer. The hockey tournament was a very important event for me, but when I found out I could go it causeD me to be very miserable and not to be excited to go to the lake house.This was a very important event in my life, because as the days went by, I realized how…

PwC values “Excellence, Teamwork and Leadership”.
