Unban Cool Math Games from Hermitage High School


Unban Cool Math Games from Hermitage High School
The Issue
Hermitage High School has banned Cool Math Games, one of the only outlets of fun for students in and out of the school, from every student computer.
Schools all around Henrico have been banning games, extensions, and creative websites for children and teenagers across the county to a reasonable extent. Many have had emotional connections to these simple games. I believe schools have the right to restrict certain amounts of access to video games and other distractions in the classroom, but a complete ban on any source of creative outlet or break from the constant work they have to endure is depressing for students.
