I was very concerned by the school board's recent announcement that lunch breaks will be shortened next year. This may seem like a good idea now, but in the long run it will
only hurt students.
The current lunch break gives students a chance to exercise and breathe fresh air. More

shorter lunch breaks?
The author asks readers to contact the school board today.
The author tells readers about the contents of a recent announcement.
The author contrasts the current lunch break with shorter lunch breaks.
