If you were given the authority to either get rid of 3 rules or make 3 new rules for your school, what would those rules be and why?

1. That’s an interesting thought! If I had the authority to change rules at my school, I would consider the following:

   Rules to Get Rid Of:

   1. Dress Code Restrictions: I’d relax the dress code to allow more self-expression and comfort. Many students perform better when they can wear what they feel represents them, which can boost confidence and spirit.

   2. No Phones During Breaks: I would eliminate the rule that prohibits phone use during breaks. Phones can be a way to connect with friends and can also add convenience for communication outside of school obligations.

   3. Limit on Group Projects: I’d remove strict limits on how many group projects we can have in a semester. Collaborative work can foster teamwork and creativity, and having more opportunities for group projects can enhance learning.

   New Rules to Implement:

   1. Mental Health Days: I’d introduce a rule that allows students to take a certain number of mental health days without penalty. Mental well-being is essential for academic success, and promoting mental health awareness would help students feel supported.

   2. Flexible Class Schedules: I’d create a rule that allows students to choose some of their classes based on their personal interests. Greater autonomy over course selection can lead to more engaged and motivated learners.

   3. Community Service Requirement: I’d implement a requirement for students to participate in community service annually. This would encourage social responsibility, foster a sense of community, and help students develop important life skills.

   What do you think? Would any of these changes make a significant difference in our school culture?
