Writing Exercise 3

Springfield High School Manual Updated

Springfield High School's Board of Education updated their school manual after 20 years.

     The Springfield Board of Education revised the 20 year old school manual at their meeting Monday night.

     Superintendent Max Schmidt said "It's overdue.  There have been several changes in the law and mores that we must recognize."  Several ideas were proposed like allowing students to drive their cars to school, carry a cell phone, wear their hair at any length, and suspension of 20 days if caught with drugs.

     Changes that would impact teachers, were not allowing them to use physical punishment on students and that all violations must be reported to the principal.  Some board members were against the change, but the manual was approved with a vote of 5-2.
