I don't care what either of you say...WSH is not that bad.
Did you ever stop to think that maybe it's the teachers? There
are some smart students at WS!! Williams-Sullivan is not the
first school that has had a hand full of bad students. WS has
the potential to be better. Indeed, there are some great
teachers there and some students work under the fact that if you
want respect you must give it, and I don't blame them. You can't
tell a student to "SHUT UP"...that's not the appropriate
way...and once again I'm not blaming anyone but the fact that
you put WSH down pisses me off!! Maybe you weren't a good
teacher or student or whatever you were...but you must look at
the situation not as a teacher looking for a check but someone
who actually wants to be there and helps the students through
the good and the bad!!
