Dear Holy Cross Associates,

We speak on behalf of the Holy Cross Students voice. We ask for a longer fall break as we see that other Local Schools have a average of 5-6 Days. This is not only including JCPS; Other private and Catholic schools are getting more than a week of a break. We deserve this break due to the insignificant amount of other breaks we also have coming up. Although we appreciate the time we get off, and are grateful that we receive a break. We should also consider the time we get to spend with our friends out side of school. Not only friends, Family as well. Many students may have family's outside of city or even farther of the state. If we do not include the weekend. We only have a 2 day break off of school, and work. Please take time and consider giving not only the students of Holy Cross a longer break. Give the chance for all Holy Cross to have a longer rest period of all of our work.

This Petition would be signed by students that will agree with this action.


Sincerely,

Speaker of Holy Cross Students

We should have a longer fall break. Juniors and Seniors should come to school for an internship for a day since we cannot miss days. Most of the junior class is fine with coming in for a day for internship, as long as we have a week fall break, like other schools.

This is important because people need to grow in a social manner and need to develop themselves outside a school setting.

The longer the break, the longer my brother will stay and be with my family till he has to go back to college.
