This petition is for those who think students deserve the right to express themselves. We were once told of how we'd get to leave our legacy on this school, how we would be able to leave behind not just a regular photo in the yearbook, but something true and meaningful. We were lead on to believe that we could leave this school with the memory of us by having a special photo and quote put into the yearbook beside our names. Throughout our lives we've watched as past classes left their own legacies behind. All to be put where later years can come to read them. However, it has come to be that this is no longer true. As I am now a Senior, Boone High School has deprived me of this right in which years past were able to have. This is a tradition, now being broken before our very eyes. Not only have they taken away our choice of a quote beside our photos, they've also created a set of rules in which our photos practically can't look any different than an ordinary school photo. I personally have noticed none of my photos can be used under these rules. Here are the guidelines they laid upon us:
