In Charge of My High School

If I was in charge of my High School, man that would be pretty awesome. I would probably change quite a few things. The fact that my high school was super small (I had 50 people in my graduating class) would probably make the fact that I am in charge even better. I say this because if I am in charge of fewer people, then everyone would see me more because there would be less people to see. Anyway back to what I would do.
First off the cafeteria would do a 180. Instead of only being able to eat what is in the cafeteria, I would make it to where people could order from different restaurants. Sure we don't have a big variety of restaurants in our county, but still it would give people different options. Also I would install a snack bar with all kinds of things from chips to hotdogs and hamburgers to slushies. That way if people didn't want anything from the cafeteria or a restuarant, they could go to the snack bar and get something for lunch.
Next, I would extend the time between class from 3 minutes to probably 7 minutes. For a small school, the hallways get super crowded. This makes it hard to get from class to class in 3 minutes. If I extended the time, then there would probably be less tardiness going on.
I would also change it to where flip flops are acceptable and people would not have to tuck their shirts in. Granted my high school did not wear uniforms; however, we had this strict dress code. I would keep the rules about belts, short/skirt length, and the low cut/high cut tops. I would just let people wear flip flops because they are super and I wouldn't make people tuck their shirts in because I hated it and I am sure everyone else hates it as well.
There are things I would keep the same. I like the way they have the lunch things split between Jr High and Sr high. I would keep all the clubs. I like the break time everyone gets. There is so many things I would keep the same.
I would however, keep a stricter eye on bullying. For a small school there was so much drama. People being mean to others. Rumors being spread. I would work my hardest to do all I could to stop or atleast control it.
Being in charge of my high school would be super. I would keep the curriculum the same, but just make a few tweaks to the outside things. I think it would be really interesting to go to my high school and be in charge. You never know. One day Excel High School may become mine.(I doubt it though..)
