(3 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Attending this school since it had opened was a great experience for me. Though the rules and ridiculous need to continuously bother each student about dress code was unnecessary, I believe that building a day care is a wonderful idea. Due to our society today and based how the children and teens are sucked into many bad influences, it is sad to say that teen pregnancy is an epidemic catastrophe. Many pregnant teens feel a need to drop out of school to help support their babies, which may lead to many horrible things such as the unemployment rate rising due to the lack of education, more violence, stealing, drugs, and so forth in that nature. By supporting and helping them, it would truly help out our society and hopefully build a better future for all of us by giving many of our future leaders a chance to succeed in life through education.
