Many students would agree with me that school can be very stressful. The teachers are constantly pushing us to do homework and school work. A lot of students have other activities after school like work, sports or chores and they do not have time to do homework. When a student falls behind on homework they fall behind in class and that can cause a lot of stress.
Today 10.2 million students in America are involved in extracurricular activities. I think teachers should be less strict with their students and it could take off a lot of stress. School mainly stresses teen students the most. The Washington Post states “U.S. teenagers report feeling more stressed-out than adults do, with school being a main cause…” Some students can get so stressed that it becomes unhealthy and it can cause anxiety and depression.
I think that if teachers are less strict and will be a little bit more understanding it would be better for the students. It will cause the students to be less stressed and improve their learning ability and heatlh.
Do you agree that school is too stressful for students?
Do you think teachers should be more understanding?
What are some things that would help make school less stressful?

Marissa,
This topic has been several times before so be sure to check. Your summary is well written but quite brief. Also be sure to reply a few more times as well.
I think that school can be very stressful sometimes and for certain people. But to be honest if school would be too easy we would not learn much. Teachers should more understanding to people which were sick for days or vacation.
I do think school is too stressful for some students if not all students. Although some teachers do understand how stressful it is but some might not understand it. It is also possible that some teachers do not care how much stress they are putting on students. A way to eliminate some of the stress is not to have homework every night.
School is a major stress for people. If you a procrastionator like me and doing your forum posts at 9pm on the day before they are due then you pile that stress upon yourself but that does not take away from the stress that is their. I also think that having homework every night is another factor to stress.
I do think that school can become very stressful especially when you are in multiple extracarriculars. I know that when teachers are more understanding I am less stressed about their class. I think if teachers can be more understanding of the students that miss school or are really busy that would help with a lot of stress.
I agree that school can be very stressful on students due to them having homework, projects, after school activities, sports, and so much more. Many kids have after school jobs as well and it can interfere with many things that can cause this stress too.
I do agree that school can be too stressful for students. I think that there are a lot of teachers currently that do understand how stressed we are with school, but there are others that do not understand, or if they do they just do not care. I personally feel that putting so much weight on homework would greatly help with reducing stress.
I agree, I think that school does tend to get overly stressful. I think it heavily depends on the teacher on who understands and who doesn't. I think teachers do not realize some of the pressure and stress we feel so it would be nice to see them relax a bit, but I understand they are just pushing us for greatness.
I do agree that school is too stressful for students. I think that the teachers do understand that a lot of people don't have much time after school, but they still give homework because it is an easy way for students to better learn the content. Some things to make school less stressful would be less homework and less tests, but I don't see that happening.
I agree that school is very stressful for students. I also do think that teachers should either be giving less homework, or they should give more than one day to get it in. More study hall time would make school less stressful.
