Andrea loves boy bands, but her very favorite one is "ONE DIRECTION!!!". Her favorite hobbies are reading and watching Youtube. Her very favorite subject...
I think that yes Harvest can improve in somethings, for example the student behavior on how I see students with their phones out, talking back to the teacher and other things that I can not even begin to say, but the most important part of school is that we must all remember that it is a place to learn and aquire knowledge. It was never about longer milk breaks, better wifi or about phones, though I do understand about the lunches, the language classes and the teachers. Still school was a place to explore, discover, to embrace your inquisitive side and to again learn, learn, learn, learn! So the next time you think about better phone service, longer breaks or the volume or decor ofthe classrooms remember that school is a temple of knowledge.
I wish your reporters had asked more students/teachers because I think they would find a balance of the positive and negative responses. What are the reasons behind the positives and negatives? I’m also concerned about several of the negative comments, for example, “The teachers scream at you,” sounds like ALL teachers scream at students at Harvest which I bet if you asked more students it is absolutely not the case. While I respect that journalists try to uncover truth–I’m not sure this article provides the full picture of people’s likes/dislikes. I’m proud to be at our school, I love our teachers and students, and I believe that we are ALL charged to spread positivity on campus to increase Harvest Hawk pride.
HMS is GREAT
I love HMS , but I agree with Clare Garcia , the dress code is annoying. I can’t wear shorts because my arms are long and that means I have to sweat all day. I wish the kids were nicer , too.
i think that there is too much homework !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It drives me crazy because i have sports and every once and a while i would like to see my friends . I also think that some teachers are a little to harsh . The last thing is i don’t like how the school is almost only going to be using devices it hurts my eyes 🙁 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also don’t like that there is way to much homework! I have a social life and homework really interferes with trying to hang out with my friends. I want to be able to relax after school too. Instead of relaxing I have to do a huge load of homework.
Yes I do also believe that the milk break is too short.
