The students are actually in their classroom sitting in their seats before the tardy bell rings. This is because they know if tardy, they will be spending at least one-half hour in the detention room after school. Before this new system evolved here at Duncan High, students were continuously standing in the halls conversing among friends, for up to five minutes after the bell had rung. Teachers would find it impossible to get class started on time, and would end up with only a few minutes to teach their well- prepared lessons. Also, students now cannot get away with walking around during their class by Diana Gonzalez hour. Students in the past would, somehow, always have an excuse to need to talk with someone or get something. Most likely, the teacher would be glad to see the student leave; therefore, he would release him from class. It would take the student nearly the whole class time to do his small, yet important task. Students would spend two minutes doing their task and the remaining time with friends. Now, with the new system, students are punished if seen with friends, out of class, without a pass. Students are finding it difficult to receive a pass. Teachers have been saying 'No'' to passes. This, in a way, is good. Students are now in class learning instead of walking and talking. But this does cause a problem; for students, not teachers. Students are sad now because teachers won't let them out during class. But being a senior does have its advantages. There are those other students who brag and feel cool'' if they receive more detention than their friends. This behavior can be understood by freshmen. Freshmen do not have the psychological development as we higher classmen. Yet, this is seen in sophomores and juniors, also. These students love to stay after school with friends, so the perfect excuse is detention. To end this positively, I feel this detention system is mostly positive. The rules were set hard and strict, not to make us feel jailed in, but to let us know that our school officials want us to have the best education possible. The rules were also set strictly so that they could be bent a little. 24
