New-trition Break This year there was a new nutrition break added to the daily school schedule. There was an additional ten minutes added to the five minute passing time for a to- tal of fifteen minutes between second and third period. Nutritional foods were sold in the lunch area and some clubs even sold food during the break as a fundraiser. There were mixed feelings about the break. A majority of the students found it a good time to talk with friends and to get rid of the munchies, but there were a few students who thought the break should be dropped so school could either begin later or get out earlier. Overall, the nutrition break gave everyone the break that they needed after those first two early morning classes. Floaters (back to class) The first week of the second semester a new policy was started at La Sierra High. Students were required to have a pass signed by a teacher giving them permission to leave class. This new policy was created because there were too many students out of class disturbing the classe s in ses- sion. Those who were caught out of class without a pass were sent to basic skills. Teachers and campus supervisors walked the halls looking for floaters. If a student was caught out of the same class four times, he or she would be dropped from that class. This new idea was quite effec- tive and probably will be continued until students can take the responsibility to go to class.
