Graffiti disrespects campus

Graffiti is very bad.

Principal Ron Okamura said, “It’s on the list for me of one of the ten worst things you could possibly do.”

There are many reasons why students in McKinley High School graffiti the campus.
Students do that is because they are marking their territory. When they do that there is going to be a lot of tagging everywhere like on the walls in the bathrooms or on vehicles.

They want to tell everybody that is in town trying to present the group how tough or how bad they really are.

When students want to talk to each other they will sometimes they’ll put a three digit number on the wall to communicate with each other.
They don’t really care about getting in trouble with the cops or the teachers.

The custodian for W and H building, John Aipia said “graffiti a bad thing’’ and “it makes the buildings very ugly.”
