And we can't vote til we're 18...

So, there are all these budget cuts happening at my school. That sucks, but life goes on, i thought. Then I realized how it affected me. With these proposed cuts, the HS band director would be fired, the director from the middle school would be teaching both there and at the high school, and we'd only have band every other day...jazz band would be cut completely! Well, we, the band, will not stand for this. So one of us wrote a letter to the school board expressing our views...half the practice, half the teachers, half the band. We also sent around a pettition which, thus far has nearly 100 signatures. Kids taking action...and we can't vote til we're 18...take that America!
