-when the bottom of the top half of your senior class is a 2.6 (probably lower, actually)
-kids failing multiple courses are still in the top 50%
-there's a 15 point curve on an AP physics test on mechanics (high curves, whatever)
-the bathrooms are never cleaned
-When the fire alarm goes off twice a week and everyone has to go outside.
-...when your principal daily tells the entire student body that she is disappointed in them
--when flip flops are not allowed because they may cause injury (ie tripping and falling), but stilleto heels and slippers are allowed
