Student rights earned My name is Diana V. I am a student at Foothill high school and I am writing an essay on whether or not high schools should have an open lunch campus. Here are some of my ideas. I believe sophomores and higher grade levels should be able to leave for lunch and come back by the next class. When the school keeps students on campus it makes the students want to leave. First of all, the food isn’t as good as it would be for ex. At McDonald’s or Taco bell, everyone knows cafeteria food is not that appetizing. For students to concentrate better, don’t we need a good meal?
I think so. Second of all, if the school is concerned about students “ditching” classes, it wouldn’t be such a bad idea to keep track of attendance after lunch. Confront the student about their skipping and punish them for it. Punishment could mean cleaning the tables after everyone at lunch, after school detention, or taking away off campus privileges. Third of all, when students leave campus and COME BACK, it shows dedication to return and learn. Also students learn responsibility and it’s helping us be ready for our independent life as adults.
The Essay on Should High School Students Have An Open Campus Lunch?

Thank you for taking your time reading this:) Report Post Like Reply13 Yes, remember the good old days… When people don’t confine them to a little bubble for fear that there is a 0. 00001% chance something remotely bad will happen? People today are so scared for tiny, trivial things. More freedom would bring more experience in life, more fun, and more choices. Things are going to happen anyways, why not have some fun? In addition, bored students are not good learners. Some students would rather stare at a black wall than sit through class.
A little break outside of campus will definitely reinvigorate them. Report Post Like Reply10 Yes, but with reasonable limitations. High school is an important transitional time. Children start becoming adults, and that transformation should include new freedoms and responsibilities. An open campus, particularly for seniors, is an important step to the independence of adulthood that the students will experience upon finishing high school. However, an open campus is probably not appropriate for freshmen or sophomores.
Additionally, there should be restrictions in place to prevent students from abusing the system, such as revoking open campus rights if a student fails to attend scheduled classes. Report Post Like Reply20 Yes, But In A Limited Way Only The open campus policy is okay as long as there are strictly enforced rules. Typically, only seniors should be able to leave campus for lunch, since many of them are closing in on legal age. Freshmen, however, shouldn’t be allowed to leave. Plus, the open campus policy should be treated as a privilege that can be taken away.
Posted by: rpr Report Post Like Reply Challenge00 We should be able to have an open campus I think that we should have an open campus. An open campus would let everyone have fresh air at least once a day. We are stuck inside for seven and a half hours a day! We go into school in the morning when the sun is still down, the teachers have the shades on the windows shut to keep the cold air out, and we leave school when the sun is up and when you walk outside for the first time in seven hours, the sun is really bright and it hurts your eyes.
When we get home we have homework and chores to do, and some kids have jobs that are also inside! And when they get home it might be dark and cold outside and they might have other responsibilities they have to do. I think an open campus would be a good thing in our school because it would free up space in the cafeteria so we wouldn’t be as crammed as we are now and it would be a chance to get fresh air in our lungs. I think that kids should be able to go to subway or Frank’s for lunch. Students should learn the ways of choice, time management, and comprehension of the real world if we leave for lunches.

School activities are very important for the students and for the school. For the students, because they gain new skills and motivation. It’s a real chance for them to enjoy school and choose to do something they are really interested and passionate about, and therefore their motivation for learning and their motivation for their teachers and the school increase. It makes them relate ...
Open campus would give students the chance to prove that they can be responsible and manage time like they would have to do with a job.. It would also give students a chance to get a little break from school then come back and be ready to focus. Report Post Like Reply00 Support the economy Profit of local restaurants and fast food places will increase, due to the rise of high school customers. Also the school lunches are loaded with preservatives and additives. The quality of the food is very poor, and not everyone is obese. Why do the rest of us need to eat this crap for lunch.

We should allow this policy as a privilege for Juniors and Seniors. Other schools allow it as a privilege for good grades and citizenship. I believe that the policy would be a good incentive for students to get better grades. The ability to leave early, arrive late, leave during study halls (then return for next period), and leaving to go out to lunch (returning by next period), would be something I would be willing to work for and an inspiration to get good grades. It also shows responsibility that a student can leave and return on their own. Report Post
