There was a kid in our school who was 14 and he died. Many Ppl knew him so our school has this big assembly, we didn't have to go to class for weeks, we didn't have to do any work or anything like that. 6 months after that when one of my Verry close friends died, it was like the teachers and schoolboard didn't even care. My mom told them my friend and i were upset that there was nothing for him..no assembly..and a ton of work. it wasnt fair.. They told my mom they weren't going to do anything because "nobody signed a sign we made" but 100's of kids signed it! its bullshit! and its not fair.. what can i say to the school people to make them at least have an optinal assembly!

Politics_Junkie answered Thursday December 2 2004, 4:56 pm: I'm really sorry about your friend. I actually saw some very similar things happen while I was in high school. It's really hurtful that schools place priority upon some student's lives more than others, especially for the friends and families of the students not fortunate enough to fall upon the school's good graces.
It's always harder to say no to people in person. Have a few parents request a meeting with the appropriate school officials. Their children should go with them to the meeting and should take along the banner you had people sign. It will be incredibly difficult for the administration to turn you down if you make your case right there in front of them.
If they still turn you down or refuse to meet with you, go above their heads to the people running the school district. It's totally unacceptable to give preferential treatment to certain students. [ Politics_Junkie's advice column | Ask Politics_Junkie A Question ]
Miss_Megan answered Thursday December 2 2004, 4:45 pm: Im sorry you had to go through having one of your friends passing away. But if your schools going to have assemblies and everything for one person then they should for another. You and a bunch of your friends should go to your principle and say something about it. Be heard. And DON'T take no for an answer. [ Miss_Megan's advice column | Ask Miss_Megan A Question ]
