<p>Ohhh… lol for a second I thought another high school existed like mine :). </p>
<p>We have 3 high schools (4 buildings) on one campus and you go to classes in all the buildings. There are 6,000 of us and we’re distributed among the buildings. Sometimes it sucks though because last year I only had 2 out of my 6 classes in my home school :(, oh well!</p>
<p>Wow you guys, I can’t believe some of your numbers of APs. My school has 28 (but I think Spanish literature is only offered sometimes). But we used to have the most in the nation back when Latin Literature was still an AP, so I guess I should expect other people to have far fewer.</p>
<p>

<p>Some public schools have cutoffs. My school has an aforementioned one, but there are still a ton of idiots.</p>
<p>-Lunches longer than 15 minutes
-Ceiling tiles that stay on the ceiling rather than falling to the floor
-give them a performing arts center… or even a stage
-more than 6 blocks to schedule classes
-give them more money so they can make the school better so half the class doesn’t transfer to a private school before freshman year
-more APs available to juniors
-APs available to sophomores
-heating in the winter so the classrooms aren’t 50*</p>
<p>-The students. It’s supposed to be a “selective” boarding school, but the majority of students got in because they’re rich, legacies, or good at sports. I wouldn’t consider myself a nerd, but I do enjoy my classes and learning, and I’m generally alone in that.</p>
<p>-Scheduling. We’re only allowed to take five classes each year, and I take two languages, so I don’t have room for anything other than core classes. I don’t see why we need three frees every day, but apparently my school does.</p>
<p>I would reform the campus buildings a little bit. Right now my school looks a lot like a WW2 Japanese-American Internment Camp. The only exception would probably be a decent-looking 2 story building we have on one corner of the campus. Since I’m in California, the campus is very open and there’s not a single building with closed hallways. There’s construction going on for a nice office/student activities building (with closed hallways :] ), but that probably won’t be completed until my Senior year. And we’re currently the 13th largest high school according to USNWR (in terms of student population), so I think it’s best if another high school was made in my city.</p>
<p>I just wanted to say that the OP’s post is insane. I have never heard of something like that before. So basically they split a super school into 5 different smaller schools on the same property???</p>
<p>^ That’s how mine is. The difference is, all of the OP’s high schools’ students stay in their own high school (which is stupid since they’re all on one campus), but at mine you take classes at all the high schools. </p>
<p>There are lots of high schools like the OP’s around here.</p>
