Analysis of Alternative Policies One possible solution to stopping vandalism around the school environment is to set up fundraisers to remove vandalism in the school. This means the school or town would have to set up an event to raise money. This money will go towards removing any vandalism around the school. This solution is a good idea because it makes the school a better cleaner place and no student, parent, or teacher will see anything inappropriate around the school. This solution however does not solve the problem of all vandalism around school. Having fundraisers does not make it so people can’t and don’t vandalize schools. Knowing this, there needs to be another solution. In the long run, having fundraisers can help a whole lot if it is used with another solution. By having fundraisers, the money can also go to the next solution which is setting up security cameras around school.
By setting up cameras around school, it can catch whoever vandalizes the school. This is a very smart solution because it not only can catch whoever vandalizes school property, it can make vandals avoid the area. If the cameras aren't even on, they can scare people into not vandalizing because they may think that the cameras are on and they don't vandalize. The solution of security cameras only has one down side. Some people feel that their privacy is being invaded and they are very expensive. This can lead to people asking and acting upon removing the cameras and this can get very frustrating for a school. This either means that students and teachers are going to have to deal with the cameras, or security cameras are not a good solution for a school to have. Knowing that cameras can be very costly, this is why schools would have to combine both solutions if they want cameras. the money raised would go not only to removing vandalism, but it would also go to paying for cameras. Therefore raising school taxes wouldn't even come into the picture. Even though these solutions may not eliminate the problem of vandalism around school, they will lower the amount of people vandalizing and the amount of vandalism around schools would be lowered making the school environment look much better. |
