Student body president offers a different perspective on administration
Spencer Huddleston, Charger Staff
This is not an angry rebuttal to a misinformed editorial. This is
not a cronie of the administration speaking out for something I
don’t believe.
This is a student who truly feels we are a part of something special
providing a slightly different perspective on our administration.
We have seen the administration make mistakes. We have seen them
act on emotional impulses and make wrong decisions.
Do we really see the other side, or just miscontinue our perception
of the administration until they seem like prison wardens? Can we
not come to the realization that the fault may be in our perception?
Think for a minute about the things we see at our school.
I have seen administrators who promote homecoming activities and
pep rallies. I might add that these pep rallies did not seem to
have very much apathy or disregard of our school spirit.
I have seen men in suits and ties who are paid to lead our school
attempts to pick up the trash left on the floor by children who
demand a voice in large decisions, but are too irresponsible to
throw their trash away.
I see administrators who still allow us to make decisions about
our school, from I. D.s to activities and everything in between.
I have seen Mrs. Fowler, the most gentle woman in the world, risk
her safety to break up a fight between two young men who are in
no way “thinking rationally.”
We have the nerve to claim that our best intrests aren’t kept
in mind by our administration?
We can not expect perfection. The day that I do every single thing
to perfection will probably be the day that I die.
I only ask we try to see these people for who they are and who they
try to be.
After that, look in the mirror. What do you see?
