Dear Middle School Staff,
I
recently got the email informing us that we are not going to Six Flags. In my
opinion I believe you cannot get us riled up in the beginning school year
saying how we need to get good grades so we can participate in the end of the
year field trip. Have you teachers as kids ever wanted something that you wanted very bad and didn’t get it? Well the 8th grade class feels
like that right now.
Our school has been going to six
flag for 14 years, so you cannot just take it away from our grade year. I
realize some families can’t afford it but talking from a PTO Veteran’s kid, I
understand PTO pays for it for you.
Getting that email was a stab in the
heart because it always seemed like a blast going to six flags, having a great
time with your class, getting rewarded for your hard work throughout grade
school. Honestly every year you get to do something fun like in seventh grade
we went to a movie, and in sixth grade we went to Chicago, but this year we get
a hypnotist?
Yes, some children might find that fun, but a
lot of my friends and I find that very unsafe. I thought that is what our
school is all about, safety. I’m pretty sure no parent in our school, would
allow their child to be hypnotized, knowing that their child might say things
in front of the whole 8th grade they might regret. Now I’m not
saying Six Flags is the safest place, but it is so much more fun, because
everyone gets to have fun, not just a couple kids. Please take this letter into
consideration.
Next time you make a decision that
kids might get upset by, remember this letter and try not to get another. I bet
you didn’t like it when you wanted something very badly and you didn’t get it.
That’s how we feel.
Thanks,
Somebody Who
Cares
