Title: Falling Ceiling
Photographer: Nia & Teneshia (Grades 8 and 12)
Program: Community Law In Action's LEAD program
My picture shows a ceiling that fell in. I took this picture to show the bad condition our classes are in. I wanted this picture to say [the school] needed help. Monique Wells (Grade 7): It makes me feel scared because one day someone can walk past it and it might fall on them. If we have a storm while we\'re in school we could have a flood. Sometimes water comes through the ceiling and it\'s hard to pay attention. Marcia Young: How can you expect a child to learn when they are worried about the ceiling caving in on them? If this problem was to be fixed, which it should be, the school would be providing a good, stable, safe learning environment for its students. -- Nia Hampton (Grade 8)
