  • The majority of teachers are lazy and unfair. They believe theyre always right. The floyd county superintendent hardly ever closes school because he is gredy ( he gets a percent of school funds and the school gets 22 dollers per student per day) because of school not being closed there are many accidents involving snow. The teachers believe that if you are not good at sports then you are nothing. They are the idol of favoritism. If you dont agree with everything the teachers say they turn it into you being a bad person, instead of just exerciseing your freedom of speech. Popular kids are givin special treatment such as allowing them to do whatever they want, and though it is illegal to do so the teachers grade on conduct.

  • My husband and I are thinking about moving to Prestonsburg, Ky... Our daughter will be entering 6th grade this fall... What are the schools like? Are the classes small, do you have youth sports?

    Thanks, Tanya McKee
