Comment: wish u all the best may u overcome

Comment: In the United States of America, it is possible for schools to begin at 7am or 8am until 2pm due to the many resources available. These resources allow the government and other officials to put in place programs to keep children occupied and engaged in learning activities. What resources does our government have that can be used towards establishing such programs for our youths? Where will these children go when school is over? Some may say the parents can hire a sitter, but with the cost of living rising and salaries and wages not increasing the question to be asked and answered is whether these parents can afford to do so. There are many of our mothers employed in the factories who work until 5pm or even later in order to make ends meet. So who will look after these children and what will the teachers be doing? So many of our youths are getting involved in gangs and all manner of things. Cutting the school day shorter will not help but infact only provide these youths with more opportunity to get involved in unlawful acts and exhibit unethical behaviors. Our little federation is not like it use to be, we are influenced too much by what we see and hear taking place in America, our idol.

Comment: So after all these years of having school time from 8:30 - 3:30, having NO after school programs, no parental support system, a jam-packed curriculum and still develop what is becoming a seasoned gang culture and weakened society, we are now deciding to SHORTEN the school hours??!! Are You KIDDING ME!! WHY?? WHAT is the rationale behind this? Do we really want to give the children more idle time so that the babysitter MsTV can feed more crap to them? Brilliant! Pay her more and the teachers less and lets see how far we get a couple generations from now......

Comment: Kittitians are too set in their ways, they have to realize that change is inevitable. There will come a point in time when the school hours will have to be changed. Even with the current the school hours, the children still end up doing whatever they want anyway. But as usual most parents these days appear to want to make the raising of their children everybody else's responsibility and not theirs.

Comment: de man aint do it.

Comment: am very excited about this K.I.D.S project (kindness in donations an services).I too am apart of the young leaders of the Verchilds High School..and from having the student of the special education unit with us,I have grown to understand them more,made new friends, and not only working hard to make a difference and bridge the gap between these children but i am also having fun within this new experience.And so i thank the RBTT bank for thinking up of this school oriented programme not for only special awards given for what we are doing but for helping me to grow into a better an much more positive person,with new views about life :))

Comment: I think it's a good idea for school to start at 7:00 o'clock. For Parent who work early in the morning these parents have a better chance of seeing there kids go off of the school. We just have to trust our kids, teach them, and also pray to God for them to grow up in the right way.
