For the benefit and happiness of the 8th Grade student body, this petition is for the sole purpose of the inclusion of Mrs. Gould on our trip to Washington D.C. She is the only one who has actually been to D.C, including one of the teachers, and the idea that she may not be included in our trip is unappealing to us. With our signatures, we voice our support for Mrs. Gould and our disagreement with her exclusion.
