The school finally caved and agreed to extend the passing period between classes. After everything they put us through with those ridiculous suspension threats, it feels incredible to force them to acknowledge our reality. Keep your eyes open to make sure they stick to this new schedule because we will …

So due to COVID-19 my school (Red Springs High) has became a one way hallway type of thing. You would think that because of this change they would give you more time to get to class but no. You have 5 minutes to walk all the way around the one way hallway school and then also if you have to use the restroom, to go during that time. Many would say “oh why don’t you just go to class and wait for the bell to ring to go?”. No that isn’t an option. You’re not allowed out of class until 15 minutes after the bell rings. This isn’t even the worst part. After 8 tardies, you get suspended from school. Tell me what sense does that make? You’re late to class and then have to miss learning time because of it. One minute late and you lose a whole day worth of learning. In results to this I would like to start a petition for all my RSHS STUDENT AND PARENTS to sign and get more time to get to class because this needs to change. After I get a bunch of signatures and the school decides they don’t want to step up and do anything, I’ll take it to the board of education.

The momentum behind this petition proves that the administration at Red Springs High can no longer hide from their own ridiculous policies. Seeing this many people demand a fair schedule makes it clear that we are done accepting suspensions for rules that make zero sense.

I understand the 5 minutes between classes. Some kids like to talk and play and this leads to commotion. However, if adjustments are made due to covid, like one way hallways, other adjustments should be made to accommodate that. Even if it's an extra 3 minutes or teachers being more lenient with tardies.

These kids every right to restroom breaks just as the teachers. Either give them more time or do away with one way hallways.

we should get more time for when we switch classes. So we just get ourselves ready for our next class and give us back the time to walk around for a little bit. plus some teachers say "the bell doesn't dismiss you I do" and then some students just walk out and get suspended because they want to get to they next class

The school should really fix the tardy system, because you can literally be beside the door and you still have to go get one. Also the bell rings late and they expect us to walk across the school to get to class when the bell rings late plus the halls be packed.

I agree because for some of us we have a class all the way to the other side of the building and due to this one way rotation kids stop everywhere and walk so slow and then the halls are so bunched up.. soo what’s the point of it??? If we are still all bunched up,and then as a result the ones that actually try to get to class are the ones with unintentional tardies.
