Resolved: That the rule about not doing homework during access is unfair.
Terms:
Rule: Method of behavior students are required to follow.
Homework: Work assigned by teachers to do outside of thier class.
Access: The period between fourth and sixth on Thursdays.
The administration says that we need to read for fun. They recognize that we won't read for fun at home, however, they fail to recognize the reason for that: All our time is consumed by doing our homework since we have no free period in which to do it. Not allowing students to do thier homework during Access is a deliberate attempt to take away the agency and rights of the student body and is all-around harmful. If we were allowed to do homework during Access, it would allow time at home that we could use to read.
If the school wants to make sure that it's students are reading for pleasure, a far more effective method would be to assign an hour of reading every week in English class.The school must resolve this grand injustice and allow students the study time that they need. Only then will students read for fun more.

Plus, due to reverse psychology and the adolescent need to be rebellious, we may find ourselves reading even during our free period during access because we aren't forced to. If the administration is worried that we would talk or create ruckus, then they should establish a no-talking rule. That may create some animosity among the student body, but at least it makes sense.
We should send these comments in.
We should. I've already been established as a rebel by the counselors, this'll just solidify the issue. :)
