What people are saying

by a student
Friday, January 30, 2009

This school is racist,oppressive,and ridiculous to go to.If you are stabbed and fight back you get in trouble.There are only a couple decent teachers,the rest think yelling at you for no reason and trying to arrest you will make you a better scholar.Actually that's their excuse because they think it's funny like 5 year olds would.Their athletics suck because you're not allowed to do anything in school.It's hard to work out, for the football coaches won't let anybody in the weight room for no reason.I hate it here,I've learned nothing,and the neighborhoods suck to live in.It's in the middle of nowhere.Everybody that was not raised here hates it here because of the school alone.I would rather starve to death in Ethiopia and give away my education than go here.Or die by getting stabbed in the back at Rutters,which actually happened.I hate every moment in this school.Goodbye.
