Text Box: I think that we need longer time in between classes because if you have to go to the bathroom or go to your locker, for like an example if Bill Bob Joe Jury had a class in Ms. Zadow’s computer class and he needed a text book, he also had to go to the bathroom. As you all should know it’s impossible to go to the bathroom and run up stairs to your locker in just three minutes. Then when he does get to class he gets yelled at for being late, asked the RTC questions, (and possibly sent to RTC in the end.) Just because we only have three minutes in between class. That’s why I think we need a longer passing time. That way we don’t end up in class Unprepared. Text Box: Guitar class was designed for the beginning guitar student.
