Solution to the problem

Solution to the problem

There is a solution to the parking at Kennedy High School. Like I stated in my previous blog, there is a parking problem at our school that needs to be fixed. At student council people talk about what the administration could do to change problems the school faces. I know the parking topic has come up in a discussion before, but nothing has been done. I do have a solution to this problem and another problem also.

During the spring time, I hear several of the soccer girls complaining about having to drive fifteen minutes to their practice. They aren’t allowed to practice on the soccer field here at Kennedy because the administration doesn’t want the field to become ruined for their games. Also the football team technically doesn’t have a nice field to practice on.

So, my solution to these irritating complications is that we tear out the soccer field. Yes, I did just say that. We make what the soccer field is now, a new and larger parking lot for students to park in. As of where the soccer field goes, we tear off our “football” field by the softball diamonds and put turf in. That way both the soccer and football teams have an improved practice and game field. This will then solve many problems that are occurring in the school.

Yes, this is going to cost a lot of money but it will help a lot of people out also. The soccer team will not have to waste gas by driving fifteen minutes away for their practice. Also the football team would have an improved field to practice on. And the most important solution will be that students will have more spaces to park in.

If there are enough spots for the whole student body in the south, north and the new lot I think that each student should be “assigned” a parking spot. I have seen at schools before that have numbers in each parking spot. The number indicates that there is a specific person that is assigned to that spot. This will help even more, because then people wouldn’t have to rush to school to get a spot, they would already have their own assigned to them. If there wasn’t enough parking spots for each individual to be assigned a spot, then the students who would want a assigned spot could have to pay a decent charge to that privilege.

I think taking out the soccer field and building a better field for both the soccer and football teams would be an awesome way to solve many problems that are occurring. The parking would increase a ton, which everyone is looking for!!
