Show TEMPLAR TRUMPET PAGE 8 To wear hats or not to wear 2 hats? That is the question We have a new policy for this year: no hats! Last year was a trial year to see how well the students and teachers worked together with the hat issue and this year they felt it would be better if they were not worn in the school. Some of the reasons for this decision were the distraction they caused you couldn't see faces sometimes. Also, they would get lost or stolen. Another problem was that a lot of kids would identify a student or put them in catagories, depending on the types of hats they wore. The teachers just felt that it would be a better situation if hats were not allowed. There are pluses to this policy. Students can concentrate better without the distraction of fooling around with hats. Teachers can now see the faces of those who wore hats over their eyes. Talking to students, I've found that many disagree with the policy and a lot don't care. For the most part it isn't a big issue, which is good. So, boys, you have to brush your hair in the morning instead of just sticking a hat on your head. This is also school policy so don't wear hats to school! Our school is growing! This year we have around 650 students. Because of this, we need two separate lunches. The system is if you have fifth hour inside the school you go to lunch after fourth. If you have fifth hour outside the school or Art or Shop, then you"ll have lunch after fifth hour. This leaves thirty minutes from each bell for both lunches. The teachers on hall duty will get out first, but they rotate each week, so we all get a turn to get out early. The drawbacks to all this are some friends won't have lunch together. Also the people in the second lunch can be disruptive to those already in classes. Please remember this and be quiet for those in class! The advantages are the halls I and lunch lines are less crowded. The lunch line goes a lot faster now. School might seem like it goes faster too if you have the second lunch, because you'll only have two classes left. I think this is a good system for lunch because this way it isn't so crowded. I've talked to many students and some agree, but most students wish they could just have lunch with the whole student body. There are good and bad points to this. This is a policy that we can't change so, hopefully, it isn't too much of a problem. We'd like to recognize Mr. Johnson for the Templar sign and painting in the lunch room. It looks great! Ifanyofyouhave any suggestions to make our lunch room look better, please contact the Principal. ATTENTION ALL MHS STUDENTS!! DO YOU Have skin problems?? Hate to be seen in public??
