Open Quote Certain classes simply aren't safe for students. The teachers and administration do their best to keep bullies away from others. But there are some students who simply shouldn't be allowed at the school. You know, because they have "rights" to an education too. Marking down a student's verbal and physical bullying doesn't matter when he comes back the next day and does it all over again. Close Quote
