I think the stairs thing is horrible, but the soda thing is'nt that bad but i do miss having some type of soda; pepsi or something to keep me awake through some of these classes.

I don't think it is fair that we have to walk up the stairs now because most of the time if you're on the first floor and your next class is all the way on the fifth, sixth, or seventh floor you're bound to be late.

I don't think its fair that we now have to walk up the stairs because it is very tiring and sometimes if you're coming from the first floor and your next class is on the sixth or seventh floor then you have to run up the stairs just to get to class on time

I THINK THAT HAVING SODA IS OK BUT I THINK THAT MAKING US WALK UP THE STAIRS IS NOT RIGHT BECAUSE SOMETIME WHEN U COME FROM GYM AND DANCE CLASS YOU BE REALLY TIRED.I THINK THAT WE SCHOULD BE ABLE TO USE THE ELEVATOR MORE THAN HAVING US WALK UP THE STAIRS.

About the soda policy, I really think it would benefit the students because they won't gain weight and it would be better to use water as a substitution. I have a hunch that the school banning soda is related to the soda tax.

I think the no soda thing is alright, but the stairs is too much. I don't know if people notice but we have a lot of stairs in the school. It's good exercise but there are days when I don't feel like walking up those stairs.

I feel as if tha whole stairs thing is way too much . Its hard to get too class. Badd enough people got big ol bags. As if there whole homes is with them. And then people like too stop and talk too their friends.& Then were late for class . When sometimes its really not your fault . Tha soda think im really not stressing .

I think the no soda policy is a good policy because I dont drink soda as much anymore and I feel more fit when Im going to my classes. Taking the stairs motivated me to try to be more athletic.

Many people have criticized the school for banning soda, but what they tend to forget is the fact that it will benefit them in the long run. Less soda helps in keeping our faces clearer, more active instead of having one of those caffeine crashes, and keeping the body alot healthier, especially for the stairs we have to walk up during schooltime.

I really disagree about walking up the stairs because it has been causing problems with students' health. I personally at first didn't mind until i started to be tired out. For the soda issue i think that it really is no problem because if students' bodies are filled with sugar it can cause problems. Problems such as tiredness, and hyeractive, which can be unfit for classes.
