<p>My high school is going to sh!t. The administration is a big PITA, rules are so strict. Just about every teacher at my school is leaving after this year. All the administration does is get on your case about tardies and other nonsense. Teachers just don't care anymore. Everyone is ****ed off at the administration. BLH can back me up, I'm just too lazy to finish ranting about how crappy school has gotten since freshman year. Man, you can really see and feel the difference in the administration. As a freshman, they wouldn't really give me a hard time at all. Now, they're hassling me all the time about minor things that never used to be a problem before. The teachers are on "work to rule" a type of strike where all they do is teach...come in at 7:30am, leave at 2:00pm no after school help or anything. I guess I could say this whole town is going under. Man, I am so glad I'm getting out of that dump when I am.</p>
<p>If you were to make a line graph with satisfaction on the y-axis and time on the x-axis, you would see a steady line around the middle of the y-axis, then as the year hits 2004, the graph drops off like a friggin cliff. Let me illustrate for you:</p>
<p>HAHAHAH, as true as it gets, unfortunately! BTW, Great graph!!! Well, our school is complete trash, and it is a good thing that we're getting out of there when we are. Everything has gone down the toilet. The administration makes everyone angry, teachers are quitting, the PRINCIPAL is quitting, the music program has gone down to crapper (This btw makes me so upset.. our music program used to be fantastic, now it's shameful), clubs have diminished, even the look of the school has gone down. Teachers have turned into lazy bums because of this nerve-racking work to rule BS. Extra help is nonexistent; it's almost eerie to be in a hallway after school, because all of the rooms are closed and dark (they used to all be open and bright for extra help, etc.) Also, homeroom sucks, because the teacher takes homeroom way too seriously and marks you late if you are in the room 2 seconds after the bell (literally... believe me, I know from personal experience). It's all very sad, but in reality, what the hell do I care, I'll be gone in less than 3 months.</p>
<p>here's a great post I have to infringe on my own copyright here, but I had to copy it from another thread, it really fits this one better:</p>
<p>question: how do you get excused tardies? I had my mom write a note, and even call with the principle, yet the principle is such a b!tch that she doesn't accept the excuses. They were all legit, too...I even had a doctor's signature and everyting.</p>
<p>I guess on the plus side, it allows everyone to explode on the principle and not get written up...i've exploded on her..let's see...about 5 or 6 times now. Yet I calmly ask the office lady if she could give me a break for being LITERALLY about 2 seconds late, I get a detention for "harrassment of the office secretaries".</p>
<p>Not to mention the fact that this school says right in the rule book something along the lines of "don't rush to school if it's snowing out...remember...safety first" they have all this nonsense about it, and then when it snows out, we rush to school anyway, but still get there late...the bastards don't even excuse anybody. i've had it with this damn school. there needs to be a class-action lawsuit against this penitentiary they call a school.</p>
<p>....heh, how's that for copyright infringement RIAA/MPAA, kiss my ass.</p>
<p>Oh, and one more thing... this has been itching me in the a$$ lately.. The fact that "Mista King" won't just come out and let everyone know of his true identity.. that is, a lumberjack. Come on, it's obvious, why not just admit it.</p>
<p>The ONE and ONLY ONE secretary who is nice is the guidance counselor with the dark hair and she sits in the back. ALl the other secretaries have constant PMS, and one time I asked a question and one of them looked up me, gave me this really, REALLY weird face, and grunted, "What do you want?" i was taken back because it was so uncalled for. It sounded like she was going to rip my head off. What the f*** is up with that.</p>
<p>That is so ghey with the whole 2 seconds late thing....We have campus safety patrol ppl at my school and they are like prison guards, seriously they wont even let you eat in your car in the parking lot??!??!?!?!?!?!? WHY!!!! IF ITS NOT HURTING ANYONE WHY BE A B!TCH WHYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>HAHA, welcome to the club, "Elcommando"!! I see what you're saying; these faculty members at snp2k's and my school (same school) our nazis from the third reich. Good thing I don't have to deal with them for much longer.</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm right next to him (BLH53) in Banking and Investments. We forgot to mention that the administration sucks so much that they don't even let us go to our cars during lunch! Back in the day, we used to be able to go out there, listen to music and basically bum around...make fun of peoples' parking jobs and what have you. Now, we're cooped up in the cafeteria. We're not even allowed to leave the caf. to go to another place in the school!!!!</p>
<p>Supposedly, the school used to be cool and allow seniors to leave whenever they have a blank in their schedule. Since back in the day, kids were getting into trouble, the bad few ruined the privileges for everyone---now, we're only allowed to leave 1 hour early or come to school 1 hour late. How bogus is that?! Especially since most days, my last two periods are free...then on wednesday, my last 3 are free!</p>
<p>Please people, make a comment on the graph.</p>
<p>I couldn't agree more that high school is going to *****. Yesterday at my high school the ceiling in part of the hall actually caved in and fell on my principal, who is now in the hospital. Last spring I was in spanish class in the light blew up and started a fire. My high school was ranked worse facility in the state, and is undergoing a 56 million dollar reconstruction just to stay open. So since we're all in the school as its being rebuilt, they have reduced the amount of usable classrooms to about half of what it used to be, and the school was already over-crowded by 500 students. Lets just say I love going every day.</p>
<p>Here's a graph analyzing the noise-level in decibels of our Banking and Investments teacher. She's a real weird character. She wants us to work, but she continues to flap her lips about crap that nobody cares about.</p>
<p>Then, to further analyze the situation, here is an illustration of where the teacher is usually patrolling as she is giving her speech. Notice where BLH53 and I are and also take note of the red area.</p>
