(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - fair school, teachers need to teach and not be less friends. Time frames are time frames stop giving extra time for kids that don't do their work. That is their fault. It makes the kids that do their work on time less motivated.
The music teachers are just a joke. What are they there for? Do they actually get paid? What does the guy do?
