Personally, I am not sure how to feel about the proposed curfew time. Are they just saying the curfew is in Richmond, or in Contra Costa period? I think that the curfew will make students go to class a bit more, but what if students just stay at home and don't go to school at all? I am afraid the curfew will make students just want to ditch more. It seems almost a though when rules and regulations are put in place, some just delibrately disobey them. To me, I don't like this because at my school we have long breaks and we go off campus to eat. Does that mean we'll have to pay the fine even if we aren't skipping? I think there are other things that are more important right now then proposing a curfew on kids to go to school. Why go to school if you aren't receiving eduation? I think this is something that will cause the youth to get angry. But, then again that's just my opinon.

Oh don't get me wrong, this curfew is idiotic!!! But students still do need to attend school. I don't think this curfew should pass but if it does, I hope students take it seriously. And Myron, hit me up, i'll walk out with you ahah.
I am totally against the curfew! this is not a solution the the crime rate or truancy. In my opinion this will only make the youth want to revolt. if this passes i will be sure to organize a walk out!
You have some valid points Junnida. I do agree that something needs to be done about truancy issues but, I don't think this curfew is the right solution.
