Should Middle School Students get Drug Tested??? Middle school students should be drug tested. If students know they are going to get drug tested they may not even start using them in the first place. Second of all, if middle school students have already started using drugs they can get help before it’s too much of a problem. Finally, if a student is drug tested and failed they will not have the demand for drugs anymore and the dealers will not have anybody to deal to. REASON #1: “ Regardless, that truth is NOT reason enough for you to back off of your decision to test - and therapy - HELP them!” Says [|OHS Health & Safety Service inc.] The following evidence proves my point that if students know they are going to get drug tested they may not even start using them in the first place REASON #2: “The good news is, up to 95% of the children who initially tested "positive" begin consistently test "negative" after their third, fourth, or later visit.” Says [|OHS Health & Safety Service inc.] the evidence here supports the fact that if middle school students have already started using drugs they can get help before it’s too much of a problem. REASON #3: “There were 73,200,000 listings of newspaper, magazine and other articles and websites reporting arrests of adults selling drugs to kids, kids selling drugs to kids, kids making drugs, kids found to be in a "drug ring".” Says [|OHS Health & Safety Service inc.] this evidence proves my following if a student is drug tested and failed they will not have the demand for drugs anymore and the dealers will have nobody to deal to. In conclusion I think that middle school students should be drug tested. Thank you and please take into consideration drug testing your child.

DRESS CODE HAS GO TO GO!

Dress code has go to go! It is ridiculously strict. I feel it is nothing but extra work for the P.E teachers to have to wash extra clothes for no apparent reason.

First off I think that dress code for not showing your shoulders is pretty foolish. It’s not like someone is going to come up to you and say “oooh nice shoulder.” I mean logically it is not anything to worry about. I can understand that you don’t want our bra straps to show, but we are maturing and everyone already knows that we have to wear a bra.

On October 1, 1990 it was a beautiful night and Tiana was getting ready to go get her Halloween costume. Tiana **__was__**  going to be a beautiful little princess her own princess too; not like Bell and Snow White her very own princess. Before her mother and she went to go get the costume her mother surprised her with her very own doll she had always wanted.

“Mommy you bought me a doll!!!!” said Tiana. “Yes sweetheart I did” mother said. “Oh!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!!” said Tiana. But Tiana did not yet know having a doll wasn’t all it cracked up to be… Especially this doll… Tiana said to herself and her doll, “I am going to name you Victoria… I really hope you like it!” “We will have ** SO ** much fun together! Parties, dances, and most of all TEA PARTIES!!!” said Tiana to her doll.

­­­­ (BEEEEEP) The alarm went off at 5:30 in the morning. Welp, today is another wonderful day to be a teacher. The only thing I am worried about is that the children had a substitute yesterday and I am not looking forward to the letter written for my class it is rowdy especially with a substitute. CLASS!!! I am furious with all of you! You had a horrifying report, which I expected, but I didn’t expect it to be this bad… Would you like me to read it? NOO!! Screamed the class. Well, I am going too no matter if you like it or not. The letter for my class says,

Dear Ms. Bloomingdales, I am so sorry to start your day off the way I must. Your class was horrific! Kids were getting out of their seats, switching seats, being disruptive, eating in class, showing very much disrespect, cussing at me, acting like a bunch of untamed animals basically. I hate to start your day like this as I said, but you must know how your animals you call students have been acting. This class made me never want to come back to this school ever again! Sincerely, Ms. Key

All of you have a week’s lunch detention… no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Oh, and I have the best three English assignment for you lovely little brats… you guys will be writing a letter to your parents about the letter I got from the substitute, you will be writing another letter to the substitute saying sorry for your behavior, and you will be writing a 3 page paper on Respect. Math came along and I made the students raise their hands if they were talked to by the sub verses who wasn’t talked to by the sub, for history I had the students talk to each other and to think about if they were doing a science experiment with toxins and they were goofing off and it burned somebody. And last, but not least for History I had them write down things that they have done with a substitute in the past and how that can effect their future with other substitutes. Ps. I am not done with this Mr. Moss...  3/21/14 Summary of //Apple Wants Exclusive Music Deals for iTunes// Apple wants exclusive music deals for iTunes. In my opinion I don’t think that it is a good idea because just because it is convenient for iTunes it doesn’t mean that it is convenient for other companies that need music to prosper. I also want to make the point that Apple already makes million what can have minimal money in one area do… Apple will still have millions of dollars there for other companies that make money off of only music will lose money. For me it would be rough because my preferences on where I listen to music on is Soundcloud and Pandora, and that would suck if it wasn’t released at the same time as Apple iTunes. Plus other sites don't charge unlike Apple over there charging $1.29 for a song. I think that it is the music records choice though because they are the ones making the music. 3/13/14 Today in Photoshop I learned that you can copy and paste pictures onto the background and then do whatever you want to them...

Per. 3 1/23/14 __ DALLY __ Dally from the book //The Outsiders// is a mean rebel...  CHARACTERISTICS: Dally is tough, cold, a rebel, and mean… the book says, “His eyes are full of hatred towards the world.” Dally also got arrested at the age of ten. DESCRIPTION: “He has an elfish face, high cheekbones, a pointy chin, small sharp animal teeth, and ears like a lynx.” “He also has hair that is almost white that’s how blond it is.” “His eyes were blue, blazing ice…” When I say he is cold, mean, a rebel, and tough… I truly mean it… “He had been arrested, he got drunk, he rode in rodeos, lied, cheated, stole, rolled drunks, jumped little kids – he did everything.” Dally is truly a tough, cold, and mean rebel for the main evidence I gave you. What two things really caught my eye was he beats up kids and he went to jail when he was ten… that’s what truly shocked me… So that’s is my description of Dally..

The Pearl…

The theme of the pearl is money can be a life or death situation… The evidence of this is that when Kino and Juana found the pearl everything started going down hill when they said they would sell it and get bundles of money and would keep it to themselves. That’s when the treats started coming out they when the attacks started happening… Many things went down because of that pearl and the bragging of the money… The money of the pearl also made a beautiful young couple go into hatred towards each other and Kino beat up Juana when he saw her try to throw the pearl back in the water and Kino killed a man over the pearl too… Later in the book there had been tension between the city of La Paz and Kino so Kino and Juana and Coyotito their baby left the city and lived in a cave for a couple days… Many people came looking for them but never found their tracks… Even later in the book Kino told Juana to stay in the cave and that he was going to make sure that it was all clear on the tracks to where they were heading. When he was half way to the destination Kino had heard something weird in the cave and his baby was shot and then Kino killed three guys that were close to tracking him down for the pearl… When Kino finally returned to the city he threw the pearl back in the water and let it die… And they lived happily ever after…-
