Changing the School System


Classrooms are bustling.

Students are hustling.

The school day is underway.

The teacher is up front on his sway.

The same routine over and over.

The class sits, bored, getting older and older.

Taking out our books, and turning to page fifteen.

I would rather be home helping mom clean.

The kids in the back throwing paper at each other.

While the cute couple are to busy kissing one another.

No one pays attention to boring old teachers.

This is why we need new classroom leaders.

Ones who will teach with a passion.

Instead of one who follows the curriulum likes its a fashion.
