I was very concerned by the school board's recent announcement that lunch breaks will be shortened next year. This may seem like a good idea now, but in the long run it will
only hurt students.
The current lunch break gives students a chance to exercise and breathe fresh air. More
importantly, it lets them take a break from their hard work. Shorter lunches don't give
students enough time for a real break. For the sake of all students, contact the school
board today and let them know that breaks matter!

shorter lunch breaks?
