From Save Our Schools Hawaii

Dear Save Our Schools, Linda Lingle, The DOE, & Whoever else this may concern,

    Furlough friday's have really been a burden on many of Hawaii students. Yeah, we get to go out on those days and not have to go to school, but we can do that any day. It's taking away from something BIGGER, something more IMPORTANT, our damn education! My name is Chanelle Gamiao, and I'm a junior at Mililani High School. And furlough friday's have affected me drastically. I might not be the best student, or even a good student. I skip class, and at times I don't even pay attention. But I really do care about my education. These furloughs have been taking away from the class time that I NEED, to raise my F to a B, talk story with my friends, learn about things I need to know, and things I don't, but most of all its taking away my future.
    This might only be a temporary problem, but its effect is permanent. It seems like our own govenor, the person who is suppossed to be steering our state in the right direction is digging our graves six feet under! I know I don't understand how things go in the DOE, but I know that if they want to, they can do something. This is BS, no one is caring about the kids, no one is caring about the fucking future! How will you feel in 10 years, when you go to the doctor and he doesn't know the difference between strep throat & the flu? Well things like that are gonna happen, because how will the upperclassmen in highschool get into good colleges when the have THE LEAST amount of school days in the country! Furlough days are YOUR choice, and you with everyone else in the state will have to ssuffer the consequences. 

Thank you for you time. Sincerly Chanelle Gamiao.
