| Why No E-Mail?? We asked Mrs. Stein why we weren't able to do e-mail in the school libary and she replyed, "Because E-mailing and instant messaging is not school related." Many people do not agree with this rule. She also stated that the library does not allow computer games either for the same reason. We interveiwed some students at GMMS to see what they had to say about this Cris Pond said, that he didn't care because he's a rebel.Cheyne Gast said that he doesn't use email when he gets on the internet anyway.We also asked Jordan Vijil what he thought, and he thought that the rule was a a bad idea and that they should change it.Many students agreed with the fact that this rule was nonsense. Although this rule is not agreed by every one we all need to obey it.The End. Writen By; Stephanie Santistevan and Kayla Drayton |
