If you had the chance to eliminate three school rules or introduce three new ones, which would you choose and why? Just a thought that crossed my mind while I was feeling a bit bored in English class.
I really need to vent about a teacher and seek some advice. One of my closest friends is being unfairly targeted by a certain teacher.

That’s an interesting thought! If I had the chance to either eliminate or establish rules at school, here’s what I might choose:
Get Rid Of:
Strict Dress Code: While it’s essential to have a certain level of professionalism, I think a more relaxed dress code could help students express their individuality and feel comfortable. Comfort can lead to better focus and engagement in class.
No Food or Drinks in Class: Having a snack or a drink can help students stay energized and focused. As long as people are responsible about cleanliness, allowing food could create a more relaxed and enjoyable learning environment.
Mandatory Participation in All Extracurricular Activities: While getting involved is great, forcing every student to join a specific activity can lead to burnout and resentment. Letting students choose what interests them can foster genuine engagement and belonging.
Make New Rules:
Mental Health Days: I would introduce a rule allowing students to take up to two mental health days per semester. Just as we recognize the need for physical health, it’s crucial to support mental well-being.
Flexible Class Structures: Allowing teachers to incorporate more project-based learning and flexibility in how they present material would cater to diverse learning styles and keep students engaged.
Peer Tutoring Program: Establish a structured peer tutoring program where students can receive help from one another, creating community and enhancing learning through collaboration.
