School is very important in our life. We go to school 5 days in a week. We spend half of our day in school. People say that it is good to have a long period of school hours for students in order to make them even smarter and be more active in an organization. It has a good point of view. However, many students are unable to get along with the length of school hours because they feel the bad effects of having a long period time in school, especially for the SHS students. In my opinion, students get stressed out of school because of 4 reasons.
First, students cannot stay in a class too long. Teenagers easily get bored, so do senior high school students. Can you imagine how bored it is when you have to stay for 8 hours 5 days in a week dealing with books, teachers, and strict rules? Many teachers will scold their students if they find out that they don’t pay attention in class. However, the reason why they do this is because of their boredom. Students, mostly boys, dare to get out from school during classes or even just stay in the canteen because they don’t feel like to studying. They think that it’s better to run away than stay in class and get scolded by the teacher because they don’t understand a thing. On the other side, there are some students that don’t brave enough to get out from school during class. They just stay in class, pretending to carefully listen to the teacher, but actually they fall asleep. Some teachers may realize it, but they just ignore that. For some strict teachers, it’s another case you have to deal with.
Second, students don’t have much time to play. Even when they have free time, they don’t think about playing. It is because they get much homework to do, and if they don’t do the homework, they will get punishment from the teacher. Another reason is students have to take intensive lesson after school that takes hours. Maybe teachers don’t mean to make their students tired for all of this but however students will feel like the teachers want to force them to study hard. Not only teachers, parents also want to see their children to be a person so they spend much money to take courses for them. On the other side, children get stressed out because they already busy and parents make them busier with courses that took their play time. Deep down, they feel that being a student make a burden for themselves because of too much pressure that they have. All they want is to have some fun and relax just like a kid does.
Third, students have to do monotonous school activities. Students stay in class for 8 hours just to study. Can you imagine how tiring it is to be sit all the time and study? We all know that we come to school for study. But we also need to do something interesting at school. Every Monday students have to come early and attend the flag ceremony. They have to stand for 2 hours in school field. And this is happen continuously every week. Not only flag ceremony, every school definitely has religious activities for each religion, usually it scheduled on Friday and they have to join it. Actually these are good things to do, but the students need more improvement on school activities. School should make some exciting activities that can cheer students up and happy to study in school for 8 hours.
And the last but not least, some students do not feel comfortable in school or class. Usually, schools are located at a prominent area and in front of big street that vehicles usually take. This is the problem, the noisy sound of vehicles especially containers and trucks make students don’t concentrate in study. when there is traffic jam, vehicles definitely make some noisy sound of the horn and it is major annoying for students to study. sometimes the smell from burned rubbish that very disgusting influence students in their study. how can someone stand in study when there is something smelly? It should be very irritating. Students or we can say teenagers are very emotional and labile. They get mad easily so does happy. In class, some students may feel uncomfortable because they stay in the same class with the ones that they hate or they think they annoyed them. They don’t want to stay in class for too long because they feel like having a bad mood when they see the face of the person they hate. That’s the reason why students not feel any comfort at school. They always look up at the clock wishing that time could pass faster so they can quickly get out from school.
In conclusion, stay in school for 8 hours can be stressful for students. They have to wake up early in the morning and back home late in the afternoon and have to do all the homeworks from school. I think, they deserve to have some times to feel relax and get out of the stress in themselves. Students don’t always have to study for 8 hours in a day. they still young and energic. What is the point of scores 8,9, and even 10 when you can’t feel the joy of youth?
Sincerely,
one of the clueless yet innocent senior high schoolers..
