Daniel Hale Williams Elementary School
It need to give more salads for students on diets and longer recess so children can be more active because of short recess it causes obeasity to students in our communtity and learning should be made more fun because some students have bad behavior because it needs to be more fun for them and dances should be 50 cents and each cents is 1 min and lunches should be 99 cents because 2.00$ is like robbing little children
