Do you know what I would do as principal? I would probably give more free time for students to stop learning for an hour or two, more vacation time, more fun activities, more weekly events, and more fun assemblies with drawings and interactive stuff raffle winnings every week. Here's more on what I would do as principal.
When we have free time, it always runs short and we don't have much time to play. We get caught right in the middle of having fun and then we have to stop, go inside and lug heavy books around to different places. Then, we have to sit everywhere we go bored out of our minds, probably falling asleep. I think more free time will wake us up. Especially, if we have recess early in the morning. We also need more vacation time to have fun and be with our families and sometimes, our friends. If someone in our family, who’s really close to us, has a birthday during school days, I think we should be able to spend time with them and celebrate his or her birthday without being counted absent. Another way to get our minds into action is to have more assemblies every week and events every week. Assemblies should be fun, too. We shouldn’t get lectures or sit there for an hour or two wondering what’s going on. And the events can be more than just celebrating seasons or holidays, they could just be for fun. School events should also be voted on by students. We should also have a student council. We can have a voting booth and we can vote on things like student body president, class mayor, secretary, treasurer, and maybe even assistants for all of them. School should be a fun,exciting, can't wait to get there kind of place. So, make a difference and speak up and make changes. Try to get your school to change. Bye!
Very nice thoughts on your blog Rina. I agree with you. School should be an exciting place where kids love to learn. There has to be a balance between FUN and LEARNING. That`s what I try to do as the Principal of my school.

It has always seen that when people get chance to become they always take advantage of this position as it was said above that he will give more vacation time i think priority should be to improve things rather than taking advantage of it.

Good points. I would do the same if I were the principal. Living in Southern CA really keeps this in mind.
