Gretchen, a student at Maltby Intermediate School, proposes putting advertisements on the school's blue, dull lockers to make them more interesting. She was inspired by a school in Minnesota that posted ads on their lockers for extra funds. Gretchen believes ads would help students locate their lockers more easily and raise money for the school through businesses paying for ad space. She hopes the principal will approve the idea so Maltby can follow the Minnesota school's example of brightening up lockers with ads and potentially influence other schools worldwide to do the same.

Dear Dr. Greg Grey,
My name is Gretchen and I go to Maltby Intermediate School. The lockers at Maltby are
blue, dull, and boring. I think that we should liven them up by posting advertisements on
them. We got this idea from a school in Minnesota that got together and worked to get
ads on their lockers because they were boring.
Some reasons I would like to put ads on our lockers is because the lockers are boring, it
would be easier to find them and it would bring money to the school because businesses
would pay us to put ads on our lockers. We saw some pictures of the lockers in the school
in Minnesota and thought they looked nice, so if they could do it why not us? I also think
that if we do it we can convince other schools around the world to do it too so that they
can follow with making the schools look nice. Please consider our ideas.
Sincerely,
Gretchen
