  2. ATTENTION!!! All SVMS classes have been cancelled!

  3. Why is this a problem? According to the Pennsylvania Department of Education Compulsory Attendance and Truancy Elimination Plan, you MUST attend school until the age of 15/16 years old. So let’s contact the school board to get language arts back in our curriculum!

  5. Why the School Board? The school board is the group of adults in our community who select how the school budget is spent, set the school policies , and the curriculum of our schools.

  6. How Do I Become a School Board Member? • To become a school board member you must: • file a petition signed by 10 qualified voters • win preliminary elections • show financial statements

  7. Skills learned are very important Language Arts is a very important class that teaches skills we will always need, including spelling. They help us excel in our everyday life. Without language skills, you wouldn’t be watching this PowerPoint today.

  8. Spelling is getting worse Thanks to texting, spelling has been getting worse in students. Short cuts used for texting are harmful to a students spelling. Children of our generation are more prone to committing spelling mistakes ever since texting has reached its peak.

  9. A skill used for a lifetime As stated before, this skill will be used forever, although some people don’t realize it. Language includes grammar, spelling, reading, writing, and speaking. Mark Bauerleine, an author, discovered that verbal and language intelligence is flat-lining on IQ and other tests.

  10. Terrible grammar Language arts is the class where we get all of our grammar skills. Without this class, people would be walking around without knowing the correct way to speak. Wouldn’t that get annoying?

  11. Fail in other classes Pronunciation is needed for others to understand you. Take History class for example. We learn vocabulary words that are in different languages, including Greek and Roman. If you can’t pronounce the words correctly, you won’t learn them.

  12. Reduce your chance of a job Without the skills you learn in language class, you most likely won’t get a job. Why? Because of spelling. According to the moderatevoice.com, most employers won’t hire you if you spell one thing wrong on a resume.

  13. Conclusion and Resources • If there is any class we should save, it should be language. Hopefully, you now understand the importance of the class.
