The Issue

 

Flex was a period in the day at Cathedral High School, where kids were able to meet with a teacher, to study, take a test, do homework and socialize with friends. With flex in the morning, students with 0 period weights are not able to get help from teachers without missing part of class. Also, Students that either take the busses or carpool with another are not able to get help in the morning. The busses are getting to school at 8:30-8:45 so that is less time to get help from a teacher in the morning. While carpooling with someone, a student who needs to get to school early is only able to do that when the driver needs to be early too. The is an example of wealthy privilege, as students with cars are the only ones that can drive to school early without being on someone else’s schedule. When there was flex, the cafeteria was open to get food, so with the new cafeteria that should also be the case, flex allows you to do that. The new building will have more seating for kids to study in a different atmosphere during school. This also allows the students to be spread out while doing work to not be disturbed. Flex during the day also bringing back flex jail, for students that have sports after school who cannot attend detention after school.Flex will also allow clubs to meet during school.
