Eighth Grade Activities by Heidi Burnett Too Much Pressure? by Tam Conville Recently, at Carl Winters Middle School, an important question arose. There seems to be a question of whether or not students who attend such activities as dances and proms are under too much pressure to buy new clothes, find a date, and go out to dinner prior to the dance. This reporter decided to get the eighth graders opinion. Three questions were asked to them: (1) How much pressure do you think is put on students iO get a date, buy new clothes, and go out to dinner prior, to a dance? Sixty percent of the students felt that there was too much pressure. Forty percent felt there was none at all. (2) Do you think that students who attend these dances should have to have new clothes, find a date, go out to dinner? Seventy percent of these students felt that two of these things should be done. The other thirty percent felt that three of these things should be done. (3) Where do you feel this pressure comes from? One hundred percent felt that this pressure came from their own friends. to purchase new clothes for the dance. Dating is not encouraged by the school. Any expense for flowers or special gifts is strongly discouraged. The school would like all students to come and have a good time.
