My advice for you all is to try to watch this movie because The Croods will prove softly entertaining for families seeking a fast-paced, funny cartoon adventure. Also, 80% of the audience polled said it was interesting and enjoyed it.

Why Join Band

by Danielle, Temiracle and Kimberly

According to the head teacher of band Mr. Lizarraga, music gives kids a sense of direction and drives them to a better life. He said that his students seem to really enjoy band he said he is very proud of his students. 

Then we asked him what made him want to become a band teacher and he said it was because he wanted to share his knowledge to all of those who don't have any musical experience and let them show what they actually know.

How will music affect a student's life?

"It gives them critical thinking," he said. "Helps them work with others and emotional intelligence and social ability."

Band is a good source of keeping the students focused on their lives. Plus, it's fun to learn to play a musical instrument.

What I Would Do Differently If I Run The School

by Leshay

If I was to run the school I would change everything about our school.

The first thing I'll change about our school is the way we dress.  I would make it where we can wear anything we want except for really short shorts but everyone would have the right to wear their own clothes and express themselves and not feel bad about what there wearing.

I would also change the way our classes are. I would add more extra classes like Art, Dance, Engineering, Cosmetology; anything that students need to help with them in life to succeed. 
But,  I would change how the school is because everyone deserve a chance to be somebody.
