No More Tardies!
By Jamie Sourivong
Do you know how when you are late and the office staffs gives you a tardy pass? It’s annoying ain’t it? That’s why, we should remove those tardy passes.
For starters, the distance from the main office and your classes are far and take up time, especially for advisory. Imagine this, you’re up the stairs at about like 8:08 and you are so close to reaching your class. Suddenly, the bell rings at 8:10 and you gotta go to the office to get a tardy pass. That is super annoying and WILL make you more late by walking back and forth. Furthermore, the reasons. Now, every student has a reason for being tardy of course. Sometimes it can be their fault and sometimes it won’t be their fault. Even though the reason for your tardiness will be on the slip, they don’t know the backstory, like it could be your parents or siblings’ fault. Additionally, students might go on LOP and have no parties as a consequence of parents! Students who keep having tardies like over 9 tardies can go to LOP which leads to no fun, and we know every student always wants to have fun. Is this good to take it away? No!
This is for the teachers since I know some will disagree with me. I know you teachers want to keep the tardies to make sure your students are on time, but what if there was another way to do that? You guys could make a challenge on whoever makes it on time to class before the tardy bell, gets a prize from the prize box, such as candy or toys to encourage students to be early.
MTM Should Have Better Food Options. By Makayla
In my opinion I think Millennial Tech Middle (MTM) should have better food options for school. Last year at my elementary school the school lunch was bussin. We had good foods like pizza, tacos, chicken nuggets, and even orange chicken. Unfortunately, here at MTM during the construction, we only have s’more bars and cold bean dip with chips. Like I’m not going to survive on a little s’mores bar that’s not that good.
I get that we basically don’t have a cafeteria where they can heat up or make the food anymore and that the food gets delivered. However, the people who prepare the lunches can at least make hot lunches and get like heating containers or heating bags. Lastly, If we get better food less food will end up in the trash and not being wasted. And that’s better for the environment, too.
Hello Kitty is Overrated
By: Leia Carr, Alizee Gonzalez-Parga, Isabella OrozcoRojas
In our opinion, we think that Hello Kitty is overrated. We believe this because when you go into a basic store, almost every corner you turn, Hello Kitty is there! Also, whenever you bring up Hello Kitty in a conversation, all of a sudden, the person you are talking with has this whole personality like: I. AM. Hello Kitty. After that, when you have a different opinion about Hello Kitty, people have to make such a big deal. We’re not saying that everyone who likes Hello Kitty reacts in this way, but it’s most people. In addition, the Hello Kitty design is incredibly plain; for example, Hello Kitty only has a bow and a dress, no mouth. You need to add some more spice to it! Another reason is that people think that Hello Kitty is overrated because most people only buy it for the aesthetic. At least know your knowledge about the show, background, and the meaning of it to people and creators.
Mc Donalds VS Chipotle VS
Raising Canes Vs WingStop
Anika Morales,Reyna Rios, Jaiden Thompson, Christian Roberts, reporting
Have you ever not been able to decide between the best fast food places? Well us too! But here is a competition between these best fast food places which are McDonalds, Chipotle, Raising Canes, and Wingstop.
McDonald’s
In our opinion, we like Mcdonalds more. Let us tell you why. The reason why is because Mcdonalds is basically a place to hang out. We can chill, eat and have a good time. Lastly, we like McDonalds because our mom goes there and gets food for us. After she’s done with work, it’s always a little treat every now and then.
Chipotle
Wait. Some of us firmly believe that Chipotle is better than Mc Donalds, Raising Canes, and Wing Stop. For starters, Chipotle focuses on fresh, simply prepared Mexican-inspired food, offering customizable bowls, burritos, salads, and tacos, all made without artificial flavors or preservatives. Secondly, another reason why chipotle is better is because the company’s mission is to serve food that is ethically and naturally produced. Lastly but not least, customers can customize burritos, bowls, tacos, and salads to their exact preferences. This allows the customers to almost be happy.
Raising Canes
To others of us, we like raising canes more than Wingstop , Chipotle, and McDonalds because we think it is very tasty. We like the sauce and it comes out very fresh. The chicken strips are very fresh each and every time. Yum.
Wingstop
Finally, one of us firmly believes that Wingstop is better then McDonald, Chipotle, or Raising Canes. Why? The fries are so crispy. Every time they are so good with the ranch.
