Oppose Premeditated Study Halls
The Issue
Would You Want Pre-Planned Study Halls?
Westmont Highschool's plan to implement premeditated study halls proves an unwise action. Study Hall's very purpose is to mitigate student stress by providing an outlet in which they can work out problems with teachers. Such problems are not forseeable a week in advance- as planned to lay out during Advisory on wednesdays- and more often than not, need to be solved more quickly than in a week's time.
The very use of study hall becomes null when students are expected to know what problems will arise during the week and when.
Therefore, this implementation is not wise, and will eventually result in students not getting the help they need, all due to an inflexible, rigid guideline such as this.
Save spontaneus study hall.
And sign to oppose this new development in Westmont's scheduling.
