(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Good Principal, but HORRIBLE students. The only amazing student was (...). Yeah. he was pretty kick ass. Aside from that, the school lacked attention to any intelligent students. The teachers mostly favored the hormonal children. A few things were favorable about this school, and one of those is the Guidance Counselor, whose name I have forgotten, but he was very kind, though extremely misunderstanding. It takes a lot to like the school, as all of them are like that, but I'd say it's main problems were a great lack in intelligent teachers (...), favoring of aggressive students and lack of advancing classes. The school's goal was not to advance the children to a new plateau and frame of mind, but to pass them when the exams came. It was a dead and cold environment for those who were unable to grasp on monotonous matters, but whom held mastership of the exotic and foremost esoteric.
It's a school, and they are all very much the same.
