Lunch loudness is quieted
September 27, 2018
At the beginning of the school year, lunches had a problem: Students were loud, some even screaming, every time the bell rang. It was beyond loud and the noise began to get on people’s nerves. So the next day the teachers took action to get students in order and a bit more quiet.
The teachers and administrators on lunch duty said that all students had to stay after the bell in their seats until everyone was quiet before they were released. It worked.
Some students are grateful. They felt uncomfortable about the screaming and thought that the kids who were screaming should get in trouble. Others merely find it was annoying and immature since the 7th graders should have better behavior if not the possible actions can be ISS, OSS, or lunch d-hall.
Tatiana Nabozny said she thinks giving all students at lunch consequences is not right because it is only some students who are causing problems. “It is unfair, because other kids need to go to the other side of the school and since we have to stay, they end up late,” said Nabozny.
Ashlyn Roberts said that the yelling was obnoxious and tended to give her a headache. “It’s really annoying and I hate it,” said Roberts. Many other students agree that they are tired of the screaming and something needs to be done.
Leah Kingery said telling others to stop would help. “Tell the people around me who are are screaming to stop” Kingery said.
Some others agreed. Telling others to be quiet, calm down, and to stop screaming may not seem like it will do anything, but it can be powerful if students are good examples to others.

I wonder if the cafeteria will ever get quiet this year? This was a good detailed article and it had lots of good information based on the students opinions.

What would happen if all the students at lunch were loud and all of a sudden quiet? My opinion on this article is that i think we should at least whisper or an inside voice instead of people yelling across the room when they could just sit next to them. Maybe you could report when the teachers are planning what they are going to do and get more details how students would react t it.

why are the students screaming at lunch do they have reason? In my opinion i think they should take the students who are being incredibly loud and take them to d-hall or some other type of consequence.I think u should report more on why they are screaming and yelling.
