Opinion: We need shade

Why don’t we have shades ? We need more trees and benches. Kids are getting dark. We should have those big blue shades they have at Peralta .

Band

I think our band is really great because we have great students that love to play music also our band is dedicated to play music. At Castro we have many kids that play their instruments. We also have a good music director his name is Mr. Dominguez. He was also in a in a big and great band in his time. Band is a great elective.

Opinion Article: School Uniform

I think it is cool that we can wear jeans because no school can wear jeans. And I think we should wear more colors for the t-shirts like green, purple, orange, yellow, red , black, pink. Now we can only wear gray, white, maroon. I understand why we don’t have red and black and blue, but not green, purple, orange, yellow.

I think Castro would be better if the uniform came in more colors. We can't even wear green, yellow, purple or orange. Last year, we could wear those colors and now we can't wear them. The only colors we can wear are gray, white and maroon. So I'm hoping that next year the sixth graders that are coming to Castro next year would be proud of going to Castro.

Opinion Article: Security Cameras

I think Castro would do better if we didn’t have security cameras.
I don’t think cameras are necessary because its not like we are doing something bad. What if your picking your nose or doing something embarrassing and people see you at the office that’s VERY embarrassing. That’s why I don’t think we should have cameras. It would be much better without them and more comfortable.

Opinion: Backpacks at Castro

I think Castro should not make the students wear mesh and clear backpacks. We should be able to wear any kind of backpack. Because some people don’t want to wear clear backpacks. They only bring binders and that’s why some people forget their homework.

Opinion: Our school's food

I think that we need better food. The reason is that the food we have is nasty. Sometimes the food is hard, overcooked, and they use leftovers. That’s why some kids don’t eat the food at the school. We should vote if we want to have fast food places come to our school and sell us food. That is my opinion on our school food and how we should get better food for our school.

Opinion Article: Basketball Nets

I think that Castro needs better basketball nets because this morning we were playing basketball and my friend shot it and it went in but the ball went rolling far. When there is a basketball net you shoot it and it stays right there trapped in the net. Only two or three basketball rims have nets on them. Everyday it is the same, because we have to go run for the basketball. Everyday I hear students from Castro complaining about the nets. The janitors should change them every month or how their condition is. Some students care because it is what they do everyday.

Opinion Article: Castro Food

I think Castro needs better food because the food right now is old. The students want better food. The food isn’t good for everyone that eats it. The food made me sick more than once. The food doesn’t taste good and doesn’t look healthy. The students need something better, something that doesn’t make you sick and something that tastes good.

Opinion Article: The food at castro

I think we need better food. I think all the schools food is nasty. That’s why Castro should be the school with different kind of food so it can be remembered as not only as a performing school but as a school with the best food. It’s not always nasty but most of the times. I’m not the only one that thinks this I’m pretty sure the whole school does! There has to be a change so this school can be the best in the country.

Opinion Article: CASTRO FOOD

I think we need better food. Castro food is nasty all the time. A lot of kids are not eating because the food is not good. If the food were good there would not be any leftovers. A lot of us are not eating because of the food.

jerking

The New Boys do it better than Castro students. Some women actually know how. Guys aren’t the only ones that know how to jerk. Almost every person that jerks does the same move all over such as the reject and hiphy drop. There are also little kids that can jerk and there are also kids that can’t jerk.
