Citizenship
(by Helen Zinn)
Your citizenship includes your way of doing and expressing things. Can you answer “yes” to these questions? Are my manners good or even among the 'better? Am I dependable? Can I he placed on my honor? Can the teacher leave the room and feel secure that I won’t cheat? Jist ask yourself these the next time you get a U on citizenship. If you can answer yes truthfully you can be sure you won t get any U’s.
An important part of your citizenship grades are manners. Manners are the way in which yon conduct’ yourself. Did you Mever stop” to think about running through the halls, pushing by ’ everyone, even the teachers and not as much as stopping to ask them to excuse you. As being _ impolite and that the person you run into puts down a mark “ against your conduct, maybe this doesn’t seem bad, but would’.you tjjink lightly of someone who ran into you and didn’t ask to be excused.
If you were a teacher would you appreciate anyone that gets • jnto your.papers and takes apples from your desk? After all, the desk belongs to the teacher, so hands off!
Have you ever felt that your neighbor should study if he wants to pass, instead of getting you in trouble by asking you the answers. Turn it around, how do you think the neighbors think about you? That’s cheating, maybe in the mild form, but it’s cheating just the same.
The next itme you get a U on citizenship, let’s have no groan• ing* or moaning, you deserve it.
