What’s Important in a President?<br />

This year’s campaign for <strong>the</strong> presidency seems to be very controversial; everyone<br />

seems to have varying opinions on what issues matter most and which candidate is best for<br />

our country. So, I decided to conduct a survey to see what is most important in our future<br />

president to <strong>the</strong> students <strong>of</strong> <strong>GHS</strong>. I surveyed about fifty people and here are <strong>the</strong> results:<br />

Yes-24 No-19<br />

2. If you are going to be eligible to vote in November, do you plan on doing so?<br />

3. Who do you think is a better candidate for presidency?<br />

John McCain-17 Hillary Clinton-13 Barack Obama-11 O<strong>the</strong>r-3<br />

4. What issue do you think is most important for our future president to deal with?<br />

Economy-22 War in Iraq-16 Health Care-8 Environment-3<br />

What is I.S.S? By Clay Bowles<br />

ISS or, In <strong>School</strong> Suspension, is a disciplinary program that students are assigned for five<br />

ore more demerits throughout <strong>the</strong> school year. When a student is assigned ISS, <strong>the</strong>y are instructed<br />

to be quiet, do all assigned work <strong>the</strong>ir teacher designated, and must be working at all times. If <strong>the</strong><br />

teacher has assigned no work for <strong>the</strong> day, <strong>the</strong> ISS monitor has <strong>the</strong> right to assign work for <strong>the</strong><br />

student; and absolutely no day dreaming or sleeping is allowed. If any rules are broken, fur<strong>the</strong>r<br />

actions like more days or OSS can be discussed amongst <strong>the</strong> school administrators. Through <strong>the</strong><br />

day, <strong>the</strong> students are allowed two bathroom breaks; one in <strong>the</strong> A.M. class periods and <strong>the</strong> second<br />

in <strong>the</strong> P.M. periods. The time <strong>the</strong> students eat lunch is assigned by <strong>the</strong> school administrators, <strong>the</strong>y<br />

also assign when <strong>the</strong> bathroom breaks are taken.<br />

Tips to Avoid ISS!<br />

1. Listen to all teachers and respect <strong>the</strong>m.<br />

2. Do not speak to <strong>the</strong> lunch detention students or <strong>the</strong><br />

current ISS students.<br />

3. Dress out each and every day in gym class.<br />

4. No cursing <strong>of</strong> any kind.<br />

5. No fighting.<br />

6. No bullying.<br />

7. Do not bring any alcohol, tobacco or paraphernalia<br />

to school.<br />

8. Do not bring any weapons <strong>of</strong> any type to school.<br />
