Denver Post retract your endorsement of Cory GardnerI started this petition because I am a woman and am a strong advocate for women's rights and marriage equality. I also care about our environment, immigration reform, health care, jobs, tax reform, and a functioning Congress. Mark Udall is the only choice for U.S. Senate in Colorado if these things are important to you!13,025 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by Jamie Chesser

CTRA Rule ReforumThe Connecticut River Academy has enforced a new rule called the 70% rule for home work. The 70% rule requires that you do 70% of your homework or you automatically fail the class regardless of your current grade. For example, if you do not do 4 home work assignments in a class you fail the class for the quarter even if my actual calculated grade is an -A. Many of our students are balancing school, sports, family, work etc. and every now and then things can get in the way of us doing our homework. Many of our upperclassmen are taking college classes at Goodwin, and the college to high school home work ratio can be too much to handle for many of them, causing them to put their high school homework on hold to complete college work and sustain the grades they need to pass those classes. The missed high school homework is counted against them and they are potentially failing their classes. It is unfair of the school to ask students to put sports, family, work and other activities on hold because they cannot miss between 3 to 4 homework assignments in a quarter. As a student body, many of us think this new rule is completely unjust and want this rule to be removed. If we can abolish this outrageous rule, homework will go back to being 10% of our grades and students can actually have the ability to pass their class even if homework becomes an issue. We need a total of 200 signatures to put up a fight against this policy. Please support the cause.122 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Joey Savage

Personal days for high school studentsThroughout the school year, students can be under a great deal of pressure. I think one day off per quarter without penalty would be a good way to let kids get a break at their leisure and refocus on school.20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Brandon Buchanan

Require fossil fuel emission labels to reduce CO2 pollutionLabeling how much CO2 we produce will raise personal awareness and increase personal efforts to reduce fuel use. This is a nearly free way to help reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, and address global warming. A typical 16 gal. gas fill-up would note that "303 lbs of CO2 will be emitted to the atmosphere."20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Don Cooper
