Miley Cyrus paper

In my essay I am addressing the administration of Jonesboro High School in Arkansas. The aim of the paper is to inform the administration of the conciuines of high school students having jobs that are demanding physically and that require much time. Currently at Jonesboro High School there is a program that allows seniors to have “work study”. Work study was created to allow students who work over fifteen hours per week the opportunity to leave school after only three class periods to go to work. The problem with this program is that many students do not actually go to work during the day they go after school would be over so the time they get out early is wasted.
The program should be eliminated to not encourage students to work more than fifteen hours a week. I myself was in the program because I worked as a hostess at a restaurant that had a very demanding schedule. My grades did not suffer because of the long hours I worked, however, many other students in my program did. By explaining my own experience of going through the program I will create pathos for the administration and will be able to give a more personal image to the story.
Throughout my years at Jonesboro High School I have had a pretty close relationship with the administration and have spent time with the Superintendent, Kim Wilbanks, on various occasions. I understand that she wants what is best for the students and would be willing to look into the program. I know that Kim Wilbanks did not work during high school so a challenge could be convincing her that the students are not benefiting from the program. However, each year the program grows larger and larger and each year the students in the program’s grades drop drastically. Instead of putting focus on work the school should be promoting staying in school and getting good grades.
