I am a seventh-grade student at South River Middle School. Unfortunately, I am too young to vote and that is why I am writing this letter. I am asking all the residents of South River to go out and vote yes on March 11 so that a new school can be built in South River.
Right now, the middle school is very crowded, and the hallways are dangerous. One of my classes has 32 students in it, and there is not enough room, books or time to properly learn in my class.
I think the new school is needed very much and it will make things better in all our schools. I also think fifth grade is too young to be in the middle school, and with the new school, fifth grade will still be in the elementary school.
I know the teachers and the kids do their best, but it is not enough. We need more room and fewer kids in our classes. Please help us by voting yes on March 11.
