Hi.
My name is Adam W. Here at Kennedy High School, we have four classes each day that are eighty minutes long. Each student gets to choose their classes during the previous year, but everyone needs to take their four core classes at some point during the year. Those classes are: English, Social Studies, Math, and Science. For the most part, those classes are very boring. In almost every case, the classes you can freely choose, the electives, are the only fun you may remember because each class you choose, relates to what you're looking for in a school day. Next year on the other hand, they are limiting the number of electives and increasing the four period day to a six period day, but on top of it all, there are sports and dances to remove the slight prison-like atmosphere to it all.
