The goal of our democracy project is to bring study hall back into the curriculum at North Kingstown High School. Due to jobs and sports, many teenagers are stressed and don't have time for homework. We believe study hall would greatly benefit the students at NKHS and create more time to focus on studies and homework.
 * __Introduction__:**

The issue we are working on is trying to get a study hall in everyone's schedule at NKHS. This is problem because students have a lot of schoolwork, after school sports, and work. A lot of them don't have enough adequate time to get all the work done. Having a study hall for 45 minutes every other day would help students get help with teachers and get good quiet time. We can fix this problem by talking to the school committee, staff at the high school and talk to other students about raising awareness. Another way we can fix this problem is by talking to other teachers at schools that have study halls and conduct interviews about how they feel about it. The students will greatly benefit from this and the school, because the students would start getting better test grades and it would make the school look better.
