This school needs some help. All the founder does is flaunt and bring in random people who usually don''t end up coming. The teachers are always leaving and the ones that do stay don''t know what they''re doing and act like they do. The staff members know nothing and when you call the school, it''s a game of phone tag with important people. For as long as I''ve been here, the deans and nurse. We don''t even have a cafeteria and we have to sit out in the elements. We have a commissary that doesn''t even sit half the students during lunch. This school is a circus and all of its occupants are part of the show.
