Voting on Junior Jim Stack’s request to grow out his hair to 10 inches for locks of love, an organization that makes wigs for sick children that become bald. This request has already been denied by principal, Tonya King . The school board will vote on this situation on monday.

“Had I approved Jim’s request, then I would have students every day asking if they could break the dress code. we have rules for a reason, and we just can’t go breaking them any time we want.” King said .

The reason why stacks wants to help locks of love is because of a problem they have with the wigs.

“We desperately need human hair for our wigs.Every month we receive about 200 requests from families who can not afford a wig for their sick child, and every month we have to turn down about 150 of those  requests.”

trying to help the organization with their wigs Stack had a compromise to growing out his hair.

“I wont be hurting anyone when my hair gets longer. I even agreed to tuck it into my shirt so it won’t be that noticeable.” Stack said.

In support of Stack, the student council wrote a letter to the school board. It was signed by 350 students, 150 of those students were also willing to grow out their hair tho the organization. 78 of them were males.

“ I think it’s cool that Jim wants to do this… Rules were made to be broken, and this is a good reason to break one,” student council president, Gilbert castillo said.

  1. your first sentence is an incomplete sentence.
    you did not have a capital letter in “trying to help”
    you forgot the apostrophe in “wont be hurting”
    you did a good job on not including an opinion on your transitions you just need more facts
    you chose good quotes you just need more of them
