Students that have learning challenges aren't helped. They need better help inside the regular classroom for these wonderful students. No student should fall behind, learning difficulties or not.

I love the people in this school, and the school supports my learning style, but with the new schedule change I won't have art classes or be able to avoid study hall, which is bad for me. Art helps me with my ADHD and study hall sto too quiet for me to deal with, and I don't work well around people in that setting, which is why I've signed up for several activities to avoid Student Improvement time, in vain. When I talked to the principal about being able to do something different with SI, anything, even helping with the office or the librarian, who's hard of sight, he shrugged and told me I'd have to deal with it. I asked if I could at least wear my headphones for background noise, but he again turned me down. Several other students have made requests like this, and all were turned down. I don't like this school much.

N/A

discriminatory school, should put effort towards discouraging this practice in a town that has around 15% diversity!
