Administration acts like a bunch of middle schoolers themselves. Horrible communication within this school. Kids are not made to feel comfortable as they should be in school. I truly feel as if they should wipe this school's slate clean, fire all the administration and start from scratch. Not to mention the building itself is old and whatever you do, don't drink the water. That may be what happen to the brains of the administration? Or, maybe they just lacked brains to begin with?
