Morning announcements

by Cathy Hoang

January 22, 2007

My name is Cathy Hoang and I'm doing interviews about the morning announcements. I interviewed three students from my leadership class to see what do they think and to give me their opinion. The interviewees are Lillian, Stephanie and Theresa. I ask them these questions: Do you like morning announcements? Do you listen to the morning announcements? Do you think morning announcements are useful? Why do you think we have morning announcements? Who do you think writes the morning announcements?

The first person I interviewed was Stephanie. I asked her if she likes morning announcements and she said, "Yes I like morning announcements because sometimes it's important." I also asked her if she listened to the morning announcements and she responded, "Yes because the principal tells us about the events coming up and so the students can know what's going on." That was also her answer for why do she think morning announcements are important. The last question was who do you think writes the morning announcements everyday and she said she doesn't know.

The second person I interviewed was Theresa. I asked her all the questions above. Her answers were much different from Stephanie's. I ask her do she like morning announcements and do she listen them. She said, "No I don't like morning announcements because sometimes Ms. Marantz talks really loud and I listen to the morning announcements sometimes because sometimes I'm busy doing something else." I also asked her if she think morning announcements are useful and why do she think we have morning announcements. She said, "Morning announcements are useful because it tells us about things and events happening at the school and I think we have morning announcements because it's important."

The last person I interviewed was Lillian. I asked her if she likes morning announcements and if she listens to them. She said, "I kind of like morning announcements because they tell you information about what's going on and I listen to the morning announcements sometimes but I watch Brewer TV on Fridays more." I also asked her do she think morning announcements are useful and why do she think we have morning announcements. She said, "Morning announcements are useful because you can know information about people and about the week and I think we have morning announcements because the principal wants to give important information just we don't know it."

Those were the answers I got from the interviewees. Those were the answers and if you want to share your opinion let me interview for the next story and let us post it on the website.
