ces Duni hm nt fit hellrim T 1 Out of school suspension - does it serve its purpose? The opinions of the administrators vary. The majority of us tend to think of it as a two week vacation, with one exception - all work missed can't be made up Some of us in the past have been suspended for bombing the Home- coming floats usrng eggs as amm- unition But needing time to cool off for throwing eggs just doesn t seem to be an effective punishment Rather than suspension in certain instances arrangements are made so the student spends his free time cleaning up the creek parking lot scribblings on desks and chew in the radiators Although such jobs as these may prove to be displeasing and tedious they provide plenty of time for reconsldering It s not always effective but under certain circumstances it works. Barbara Sorenson, vice principal The last thing we want to do is to suspend a student So in certain cases we make exceptions After all what does the student gain from being at home? Rowland Throssell, vlce principal lt depends upon the situation In the case of a fight sending the angry student home gives him a chance to cool off. Louis Gappmayer, principal I feel there are certain rules and regulations that must be followed. A part of school is learning discipline To fulliill education this must be taught.

I think it's the only option. Curt Baker, non-Bctlon, English II I think it's totally ineffective unless the student looses something in exchange for what he took. Jerome McNIchoI, Engllsh II, Journalism I, Hawk Tawk, Aerle n x wal 6 4 X-s xx. : When the parent is concerned it is effective. In some instances, it gives the student what the student wanted - a two week vacation. Richard Geldof, English II, mythology f' - Basically, there are times peo- ple must be removed from the environment, so they do not infringe on other people's ri- ghts. Gall Hendricks, reading No, it isn't effective. The kids that are suspended don't want to go to school anyway. I don't think the school should reward the student with a two week vac- ation. June Safford, creative writing No, it's not effective. For the most part, out of school suspension simply removes the problem, rather than finding a way to work it out.
