Changes at the Kurt Hahn School for next year, addition of  new teachers, new freshman, and the expansion of the school`s hallway, leaves many excited while others confused.

Some changes are expected as part of a new growing school, while others are a response to what students need.

Next year there will be many changes that affect the school and the students in it.  When interviewed, Ms. Alexander the guidance counselor commented that, ” it was necessary for changes to try new things.” She also stated that ” The benefits of the changes is that things would get better.”
One change is adding another Student Led Conference (SLC). In the 2008-2009 school year, there were only two and now there is going to be a third one.  Some students have different perspectives. Junior Ivory S. stated that, “It would be a good thing” she also said that “It would make her a better speaker and would increase her interview skills.”  Junior Jasmine S. commented and said, “its going to be challenging.” Other students that were interviewed also agreed with Ivory and said “its a good idea” and” it would give us an opportunity to learn more”others commented that,”it would be beneficial to some students.”
Construction and renovation includes new wires, lights, and pipes.

Expected changes include more rooms, needed for the amount of students and  teachers coming to Kurt Hahn.  One student suggested that sophomores and juniors should help by making the teachers feel welcomed.  Sophomores and juniors should consider helping the freshmans become scholars and leaders.
