well, my school district is TRASH. the schools are in horrible condition and we dont have the money to fix them. In middle school there were 300 people per grade and generally people dont go to private schools in middle school but then in 8th grade 1/3 of the grade applies to go to a private school because they dont want to be stuck going to the high school so only about 200 people move on to the high school and 100 leave to go to a private school.

My school also has a lot of leaks. Not so much fainting though. All i remember of fainting was when i was sitting at lunch and looking out the window and i saw an ambulance outside and i saw a teacher get put in by a stretcher. She has a history of feinting. Last year i was in the nurses office for having uncontrolled body movements. and i hear "code blue" over the loudspeaker. and in my head i'm thinking "code blue? what? isnt that some kinda medical emergency thing?" and then the nurse goes and runs down the hall to the 5th and 6th grade nurse's office. Apparently someone was fainting down there. I have a history of fainting [grr orthostatic hypotension :x] but it never happens in school.
back to the leaks. My school has a lot of leaks. They come from the ceiling. I took this picture of 2 buckets in the hall collecting water while i was skipping english hehe :D

Wow, you guys are making me feel lucky! The worst thing that's happened at my school was some 8th graders selling pot. No knives, no guns, no bomb threats, or anything. I guess I go to a pretty good school district, compared to most. There's been a lot of weird stuff, though. Once we had 3 fire drills in one day because the sensors were faulty. Once we spent a whole period standing in the hallway doing nothing just because something smelled bad. The counselor thinks that my friend is contemplating suicide because he drew a picture of his Spore character (which had feet coming out of it's eye sockets and stuff; it was terrible) with the caption "somebody kill me." A kid got hit by a car once (he's fine.) Some kids were caught sending pictures of themselves naked to their boyfriends/girlfriends last year. And I guess that's it.
Oh and my school has 856 students now.

Not many weird things in my school. A few bomb threats here and there. Oh, and the fire alaram malfunctioned so we had three fire drills in the same period. I, of course, was in the library during my free period, doing work that was due next period. And the librarians made us leave every time. I still managed to get my work done though :lol:

our fire alarm doesn't work so people tend to ignore it when it goes off, and last year, on block days someone would pull the alarm with 30 minutes of school left and we would wait on the football field until we left
