Only problem we've had with our school is that they won't let us wear our BDU's anymore. They eventually came up with something, (damn their souls), clever against it. Said they were "costumes" and we couldn't wear them.

But seriously, if somebody gives you problems at my school, they get taken care of immediately. Everybody, (for the most part), minds their own business and keeps to their little group. Whenever we do have a fight, though, it's as boring as hell. It evolves into this little sissy pushing fight.

Our principal got a DUI going down the causeway my Sophomore year, though. That was pretty much the only thing exciting that year, which is why everybody made a big deal about it.

My school is pretty good. We have a lot of douche bags, but for the most part, it's easy to stay away from them. Bush's No Child Left Behind plan though nearly had our balls in the government's grip though, since our school has so many special ed kids (who sadly aren't going to learn anything anytime soon) to pick up for. We nearly lost our fine arts program, but were still able to buy astroturf for the football team. Figures...

I forgot to mention, last during a drug search ( we get a drug search every few months) they found pot in our band room, some idiot decided to stash his pot in his trumpet case I beleive. So far this is all I can remember.

Our systems are way out of wack, we have a really weird English teacher (He is a G-nome) and i think he has LMS, but he nuts up at everyone for no reasons and nutted up at us for laughing at one of the funniest things ever.(Hence the LMS and i think he is a virgin, not to sure).

Rumour has it, He got in because he has the same name as the Headmaster

:P

Wow, your schools sound really screwed up!!! The worst thing that happened at my school was when some kids got caught looking up how to make explosives on the school network. I knew them sorta, and I think they wouldn't have done anything. But, they got expelled nevertheless.

Expelled for looking up explosives? That's messed up. At my school, as long as you are friends with the security guards or are a cheerleader or football player, you can do whatever you want as long as you don't kill anyone. The cheerleading team got pardoned for being at a drug party once, and I know a lot of people have got caught looking at porno and got away with it since they were on a sports team. It's good to know that we're growing up in an uncorrupt enviornment! :roll:

I can't believe if forgot this, but one year this kid stole his mom's credit card and some how manage to buy 2000 dollars worth of porn memberships (in one day!) using the school computers and started downloading like crazy. By the time they caught him he had over 40 gigs worth of porn saved on the computers (cause of the super fast internet connectiont hat got donated to the school). he got expelled and his parents donated 10 grand to the school to keep him in. sad shit.
some kid got suspended the other day though for checking his myspace ont he schoool computers

my school is reall sh1t, i get told off nearly everyday for having a mohawk and stretching my ear, yet they persist to tell us to express ourselves in any form... the head of campuss also hates me because my elder brother knocked him out... and none of the teachers have a backbone so students pretty much run the school...

I got sent to the office for "Harassment". I was just doing that elementary game were somebody moves there hand around and tries not to get hit. Plus i might have teased him sometimes. If I ever messed with the kid again I would have gotten suspended.

I go to a private school, summer uniform: khaki shirt, green shorts and socks, school shoes and a tie (basically a boy scout uniform).
Winter uniform: grey trousers, white shirt, maroon blazer, and a tartan tie, a truly spiffing number :roll:
Apart from that, my schools not bad; no shootings, no bomb threats, not much physical bullying. A guy was suspended last year for bringing a hockey stick to a fight, and then later expelled for stealing iPods and phones out of bags. oh, and a couple of lads got in trouble for hiring a "vegetable-wielding" stripper for the rugby afters party, and the story made it into the local paper, The West Australian and The Australian. :lol:

Awesome! They hired a stripper who knew how to cook! Usually, those parties have plenty of beer, but no food anywhere. Clever. :D :wink:

We have a few private schools around us who do nothing else in our presence but flaunt it and imply continuously that they're smarter than us. Funny thing is, they don't have to take the same standardized tests as we do, and Dr. Watkins, (my Pian'er teacher), says that whenever somebody comes from a private school to a public school they do nothing but play catch-up.

We DO need to tighten up on our NJROTC program this year, though. I've gotta finish our web-site by tomorrow, (but I'm almost finished anyway). We've got annual inspection this year by the Area 08 Manager, so there's some pressure.
