School is Open
A Poem by Mr. Hill
School is open
But you can’t go there
You stay at home and schedule your time
When you don’t turn in your assignment
You will be marked absent
I know it is hard on your own
But it will be fine
If you schedule your time
Five periods a day
Did you read that?
Five periods a day
Five periods a day
A regular school day
Five days a week
Math, science, English and history
Please learn them or life will be a mystery
School is open
But you can’t go there
You stay at home and schedule your time
Math for one hour
English for one hour
Science for one hour
History for one hour
At least
Another hour for PE or Spanish or whatever class you may have
Five hours a day
School is open
School has begun
School is at home, for now
So, schedule your time
Five periods a day
School is open
Don’t be absent, please
