The School Building Needs Help

Our school has many problems that we need to address. I'll start with the windows. The windows are no good. They have bullet holes in them. At one time they were probably shot out when all the gangs shot at each other. But that's not it. There are a lot of other problems in our school and they need to be addressed.

The windows are a big problem for Byrd School. Not only are there bullet holes, but cracks too. Also you can barely see through them because they were made out of bullet proof plastic windows. The problem is that they are so old they are no longer bullet proof anymore. They are tinted so people can't see out of them. The windows have some crazy stuff and tape all over them to cover up the cracks. Guess what, the windows are not efficient either because they are no good. They are no good becuase they have air blowing from the outside. It affects learning because it is uncomfortable and emabrrassing to the school, teachers, and students are uncompfortable.

The second thing is the restroom. They are filthy, messy, and also have leaky sinks. There are NO stalls doors that means usually no privacy. But I think it was the school's fault this all happened. Some say it was a hospital but I don't believe that. The walls are old, rusty, and covered with spitballs. I think a new school would be much better than the school we have. It is important to have nice restrooms becuase if a guest comes they are not going to like it. Also the bathrooms do not have soap or paper towels or even garbage cans. It is always dirty. The ceiling is even falling in. This is not right for a school to have.

I really think the school building needs help. I thought the principal and the assistant principal could fix the problems and they tried, but it is not good enough. To fix all the problems we really need a whole new school. Jenner got the new school before us because their ceiling had pipes that were falling down. They also ate in the basement and had mice down there. Every time we ask the construction worker they say they have no money. What I think should be done is to go march around saying we want a new school then the constrution worker will finally help us.
