To the editor

I’m writing in response to an opinion David Holroyd wrote in the paper that came out on Saturday. I’m a student at Lawrence Alternative High School. If I hadn’t gone to Lawrence Alternative High School I couldn’t have made it through high school at Lawrence High. The Alternative School has helped me out a lot. At Lawrence High I made D’s and F’s because I never went. Now that I go to Alternative I make all A’s and B’s.

The Alternative has motivated me to go to college at Johnson Community College. I plant to get a degree in zoology so I can become a zoologist. Without the help of the staff at Lawrence Alternative High School I would have never even considered college.

Holly Kennedy,
