​Information Disconnection and Solution

By Jeovanne Finch-Negron
​
Are you getting the information you need to be successful as a senior? Many seniors are clueless to what is actually happening with events that are meant to help us. The senior class has been deprived of receiving that needed information. Even though there are efforts to get this information out to the seniors, many seniors feel that communication is less than effective when it comes to sending the emails, robo-calls, social media pages, and the morning announcements that don't happen anymore. 

Counselor Ms. Burnell said that getting the word out to the seniors has also been difficult for them as well. This has been a problem for a while now. A possible solution is an application called Band App that can work better than the emails, robo-calls, and the social media pages that are being used. There will be the questions of when prom is, when are the cap and gowns due or when is graduation but who is going to know when that is? The things we most definitely can´t find out just through word of mouth. Senior class should be able to know when our sports teams are playing so we can come together and show that support.
​
Through discussion, a solution has risen up to this challenge that disconnects us due to communication. The solution is simple but connects in a way where we can access that information quickly without any hassle, just by accessing your phone. There´s the Band App that will allow the senior class and the upcoming seniors to access all the information that the counselors put up on the page. This will allow you to see posts for upcoming events in a way that is accessible to all. This is the solution that we need.
