So, they have a parking policy, where if someone doesn't park in the area they're supposed to, they get one of those yellow car boots. Well, this guy named Nick, he has this HUGE green dodge, raised a good 8-12 inches, with huge bellybutton tires, and all last year, he parked in the lot for seniors, and they couldn't boot him for it. Well, THIS year, he's a senior, so, he parks there anyways, but just to make sure he won't screw up, the school spent 1100$$ on a specially made parking boot, just to boot his truck. When he already gets to park where he wants this year. :lol
-
lmao that would happena t my school to.

Easier to tow it for illegal parking

What school is this?

1pluss44 I miss you bro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

school administrations are a bunch of morons.

I'm with you Oakranger. OMG guess what, there was this under cover cop at our school, who looked like he was ATLEAST 30. Everyone knew he wasn't a student, well we didn't KNOW, but we could tell. Any way, his first 7 words to me were "know where I can buy some pot?". And later, one of the substitue teachers recognized him from a college course she used to teach.

You can say that again. When I left public school for cyber school, the public school wasn't too happy that they had to pay for it. Should have taken a few weeks to get settled, but the public school kept "loosing" papers and it took 3 months. The one cyber schooled we tried wasn't working out, so we switched to another. Kept getting calls from the first school that we were not logging in and doing work 2 years after leaving them.
-
Our school quickly bought and installed document cameras (think the opposite of an overhead projector; a digital camera pointing down on an object and relaying through an LCD projector) for many teachers because they are millions of times easier to read and have the ability to zoom in. Problem is, you can rinse off an overhead sheet. You have to use paper with a camera...and we used to run out by year's end before that.
Just as soon as the teachers were getting used to the new technology, they installed Smart Boards that had apparently been sitting in the hallway of the administrative office for years. Those entirely obsoleted the document cameras, which have now found nice homes on top of shelves and cabinets with their power chords snug around their necks.

GHS.
Stupidest thing is, he's a senior, so he gets to park where he's always parked. 2 years ago, they were towing it, but I guess it cost them more money? Or something, but they quit and replaced it with the boot.
One of my friends got booted, and he kicked it 2 or 3 times, and it fell off. So, they're wasting money, on a product that doesn't even work.

:rofl, they are forgetting that kids are a hell lot smarter then that.
Speaking of pot, i know a guy who was in his last year of college getting his degree in teaching. He always thought he was smarter then me and try to put me down. He was doing his student teaching at a Catholic high school and got busted for having 40 lbs. of pot in the truck of his car, ON SCHOOL GROUNDS. least to say, he wasted 5 years of school to end up being a drug dealer.
-
The couple of drug dealers I knew in high school all thought they were pretty smart, getting away with something. I think they're mostly dead by now.

They are probably receiving free medical in your state penitentiary system.

It was always funny (for me anyways :) ) when they brought the drug dogs in. One time, they didn't even announce to the teachers they were bringing them in because some homeroom teachers tell their students during homeroom time. We were just sitting there and over the PA we hear "All students are to remain in the current classes until further notice. There are drug dogs in the hallways, so until further notice, all students are to remain in the classes they are in now." Right after about more than half the students in the class I was in looked shocked and kinda slid down in their chairs. :lol The next half hour we heard dogs barking almost every 10 seconds. Right after we could go to our next class you can see a lot of students running to their lockers to see if they had a tie on their locker (indicating the dogs sensed something inside). Busted a lot of them that day.

That's one benifit of being in a small town, don't have to worry about drug dogs (as if I'd have anything to hide, now, my locker partners, that could be a different story...). Only thing we have to do is worry about Bates (Yup, school security guard is named Bates, so needless to say, he is Master Bates to most. :D) finding our locker pegged. ;) Our school "security" isn't all that great, although, with the new campus came new cameras, even some infared. O.O
:bolt:
-
Man, the smoke detectors in our bathrooms don't even work. Do the math.
Our security guards are paranoid. We aren't allowed out of our classrooms unless we have our ID cards, we aren't allowed to be on school grounds during teacher meetings on Wednesdays, and if we are there after 6 PM, they interrogate you. Of course, the administrators created these rules. The kids at our school are very good at hiding their drugs. They brought in a dog, and found next to nothing. The Junior year is the year of the potheads, sophomores are the easy gals, and 2/3s of the freshmen smoke. No one knows much about the seniors though.
Those crafty urban hillbillies.

Lol, same thing happened at my school, only they would have lost 90% of the students to they gave a warning 30mins in advanced even though they weren't suppost to. We had to share lockers and there were ties on 3/4 of the lockers in my section with 5 standing open indicating drugs were found in the lockers.

Ive got a story for you guys. At the Edinbourough Airshow in Adelaide a Mirage (way back when) did a high speed flypast and accidently broke the sound barrier. That area unfortunately was full of tomato growers.... so the result was....shattering.
A problem arose though, with the glass gone the plants were scruitinised and discovered to be Weed interwoven with the Tomato crops. but the law had no way to prove it, but Weed needs hydroponic heat so you know what they did?
They called up the marine Squadron at Edinbourough and their Orions did "training" excercises over the fields.... doing infared runs :devil
The result was combined with Air Defence Guards and MPs AND the local cops taking the whole lot in. something like several million $ worth. :D
Aussie law enforcement at its best.

Our family is planning on going further north for Christmas this year, to see some snow.

Drug dogs? WTF?!? When does MY school get drug dogs?!? We could really use it... funny thing is, it's the teachers our state is watching. They tried to impliment random drug testing on teachers, and a strike was threatened as a response! lol. Perhaps someone is hiding something?
-
Hell, even my school gets drug-dogged without warning. Our town is apparently the meth shipping capital of the West coast with plenty of manufacturing going on too, but it generally isn't the kids. Even then, they're not dumb enough to bring it to school when someone "on the other side of the city" is a ten minute drive away.

my school is run by nazis now... they were suspending people for not taking a test. it is the same exact test that we have taken every 9 school weeks for the last 3 years and they wonder why nobody takes it seriously...
as for drug dogs, now that i think about it, i havent seen any here but the middle school for some reason they get them like twice a year.

School districts are trying to stop addictions early. Ours primarily focuses on MS as well. I'm supposing a lack of funding may be the reason for your high school getting off easily.

I love PSSA's and 4 Sights, you get to get out of class to take an easy test.

It's weird going to school with armed Police when you stop and think about it, however there's definitely reason for them to be there... you get used to it anyway.
Periodic drug checks are fun too, there's always a couple of people in the class room that are scared as hell.

Same here, were not allowed to have any electronics in class, and this one kid was putting his away (he wasn't even in the class room yet) and the teacher saw it, and said "give it to me, your parents can come pick it up in the office after school" when the kid said "no, I'm just putting it away, I'm not even in the classroom yet" the teacher said "give it to me or your suspended".

ROFL. At my school that teacher would have been knocked clear on his arse. Unfortunately, because my school rarely utilizes the police department, the kids threat of violence against the teachers gives them control over the school.
-
I had a tiny school, they would bring in drug dogs maybe once a year, but it wasn't random. You could bet they were spending a little extra time around 3 or 4 lockers trying to bust a couple guys.

It's a bit different when there's Police Officers (not rent-a-cops ;) ) with Glocks and tasers in your school during school hours.

You from one of those big schools with the metal detectors in front?
-
There's about 1,500 students at my High School IIRC but no, we don't have metal detectors.
My school district is so big that there's another similarly sized (bigger?) school in it.
It's not even the city's district :)

According to Wikipedia Central Dauphin High School has about 2,100 students and Central Dauphin East High School (my school) has about 1,595. Both are part of the Central Dauphin School District.
There's also 4 Middle Schools and 13 Elementary Schools in the district.

Any way, his first 7 words to me were "know where I can buy some pot?". And later, one of the substitue teachers recognized him from a college course she used to teach.
I remember one of them when one time I was visiting my girlfriend (now wife's) school back in 1979 when she was a senior. Same thing. Guy looked like he wasnt a day under 30 trying to play the part of a student. Everyone was hanging aroudn outside in the back when he walked up and asked if anyone had any pot to sell.
Almost in unison everyone looked at him and started yelling/chanting "NARC! NARC! NARC!" and he walked away never to bee seen again.
Funny thing was. Back in those days he could have picked out anyone and stood a better then 90% chance they had something on them. and it would have ranged from anything from acid to Quaaludes. To date I know VERY few people who were teens in the 70's who didnt do something back then.
A few years later I was i a bar with a buddy of mine who had had a fewq run ins with this same cop. first time I'd seen him since that day.
We were all sitting aroudn drinking when he turns to me and said "I've gotten this guy a few times. And your his friend. how is it i've never nabbed you."
I said. "you were a narc assigned to EBVS a few years ago right"
"yes"
I said. "Well then the answer is obvious. Your too stupid to catch me at anything. And hes too stupid to not get caught even by you"

The private schools in the area aren't much better (or they're worse)
Don't get me wrong... nothing really happens. There's just a lot of precautions to make sure that nothing happens.

The couple of drug dealers I knew in high school all thought they were pretty smart, getting away with something. I think they're mostly dead by now.
True dat. usually because they were selling to support their own habit which more often then not wasnt pot but Crank,coke, heroine. Etc.
I've lost alot of friends that way over the years. Hard drugs or alcohol.
On the flip side. back then two of the biggest drug dealers I knew 1 was a sherriffs officer and the other was the son of the local narcotics officer.
No idea what became of either of them though.
-

Send them to one out here, I suppose. They're all strict Christian schools. No drugs or alcohol, but no friends outside the Cult due to thinking they're better than everyone else all the time.

Metal detectors, drug dogs, armed cops, cameras...sounds more like prison than school. I remember the good 'ol days of sneaking out to make a donut run, or getting a pass from the auto shop teacher to go to pick-a-part. When my school got it's first hall camera, a couple of us seniors sat in the security office learning how to zoom in and out on girl's tulips as they walked down the hall. Good times... :old:

We don't even have an auto-shop :cry. It's really funny when I remember that I'm the only kid at that school that knows how to change oil or do anything to a car, one day some girl had a question somewhere "What does washer fluid low mean?" LOL. I go to a private preppie school,no cool courses like auto or woodworking etc...,just a bunch of BS arts and languages,AND NOT EVEN GOOD LANGUAGES! It's really lame that they don't give alternatives for the people that would rather get down and dirty with some hands on work.

That's because private schools are for "higher learning" and mechanical and the lower engineering courses are seen as being "hillbilly." Yeah, bothers me too.

When you go out to start your car and it dosen't work or something in your house is screwed up,you're gonna look like a real tard when you have not the first idea what to do even though you got a shiny PhD,ya know?
-

Our public schools scare me, we had a Boy Scouts or CAP thing one friday where we went and ran a bowling alley for some 6th,7th,and 8th graders, of course I signed up for it because we got out of school :D. The 7/8th graders were the size of a sub-compact and then some. And even our public schools don't really have anything hands on, once you get away from the city you see more of it though.
-
I spent my life in the electrical/computer engineering wing working with the metal and wood shops. I know exactly what you mean. But I'm also a choir student and know that side of the story, too.
The dirty work prepares you for life. The arts expand your horizons and give an overall boost to your culture and learning. Students need both, but the snobs see the grease and funny smells and say "We don't need any of that!"

Its a balance, get TOO far out, and they don't have enough money for that. Some where inbetween with about 300-600 students seems about right for that stuff.
-
Which is why it's so much fun to know both sides. Sure,SOME of the arts and "higher learning" is good, but you only need so much of that. Kids at my school not only don't understand and don't know much about that,but they know absolute ZERO about real life skills. That's where I think God blessed me, I am not only one of the top kids in my class, but hands down the top man when it comes to common sense, fixing stuff, and general knowledge that you don't learn in the classroom.

Lol, same here. The only thing the kids who aren't good in school know how to do is roll a cigarett. And the kids who ARE good in school know almost nothing not learned in books.
-
In my case, I know so much about practical things simply because the books are too difficult. There just AREN'T high school level books on engineering. There are manuals you could use to crush a small child, and that's it. So instead we're taught how to not electrocute ourselves, warned of the sharp objects, then given a big box of crap to make something out of with access to the "physics lab" with all the high-tech equipment, heavy power supplies, and "throw all your old, un-needed electronic junk here" bins. It was great.

Well, I have experience with both sectors, and from an education standpoint, public is MUCH better. Private schools might give the more 1 on 1 attention, but they don't have the funding (for the most part) for the more advanced classes. I was TAG tested and approved for all subjects, but, switching to a private school, they didn't offer the TAG program, so, I went through 3 years of review, then, switching back to public schools, put me behind. Double sided sword.

my HS (BFHS) has around 500-550 students in it. though there has been increase talks of a merger of us and one of two other schools which are right next to us.
the PSSA's i dont mind... ive always scored avdanced every year i have taken them (5th and 8th grade). this year is my last year for them. im just glad im my age and not a couple years younger because now, 3-8 takes them and then again in 11th.
but 4sights on the other hand... they are the most useless test i have ever taken... luckily my school finally let us stop taking them if we score advanced. wish they would have done that 2 years ago...
as for public vs private...
there is no merit to it because my school district Big Beaver Falls ASD is(well, at least in the last few years we had been) ranked in the top 50 schools in the nation for technology and in scores yet BF has one of the worst reps in western Pa and it is a public school. We also are the only school to offer as many business classes as we do in the whole county.
We have a school district right next to us which actually is a race based school (there is 7 colored kids in the whole HS 8-12th grades and the school lines show it also) and is literally run by crooks but yet is considered a good school and better than us. back in the 70's they were a part of our school district but then they sepperated when all of the civil rights were happening and starting to end.
but in the end, i wouldnt want any other school than the one i have now. we have the best AA football and basket ball teams in the state and this years baseball team is going to kill!

Doesn't make any difference. My buddy goes to a private military school (21k a year!) down in San Marcos, his roommate got kicked out for having drugs. Doesn't make any difference where you send them to, may as well send them to high school, where they can learn to socialize with all different kinds of people.

"throw all your old, un-needed electronic junk here" bins.
There's probably core i7s and gtx 295s in there now and the kids don't have the first clue. I remember a camp I went to in 4th grade over the summer,we had a "take apart" activity,I got a Pentium 4 CPU, some HDDs "wish my dad hadn't thrown em out" a turntable,some mobos,and other junk. I mainly used the mobos as oil refineries and gas stations when playing with toy cars,lol

Oh, trust me, there aren't. Mass amounts of less-than-50GB hard drives, Celerons, and Pentium 2s/3s from the old computers used in the computer construction class. We had plenty of people willing to pick it clean.
At the same time, though, there were a few battlebots running on Intel CPUs. :D
-
hehehehe, battlebots....
-
I have a (pretty boring) YouTube video of our battlebots in the beginning Engineering classes where we used Lego Mindstorms to make robots. Due to a bunch of changes currently occuring, we didn't have the time or ability to make actual robots like in the past years...which kinda sucked, but it was still fun.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5aXW5fkonU
I was proud of my robot, though. I kinda cheated by using the design from the home kit's manual. It wasn't so cheat-y due to having to design things to work around it (like the damn light sensors). It was the only one that completed every challenge throughout the whole year without needing a complete redesign or gearing change.

I usually get a few extra bucks here and there from old computers. I collect a few, strip them of parts, use the better ones from each and make a computer that is able to run Ubuntu or Windows XP Lite and sell it for $50 bucks who just needs it for email/internet surfing. Those old computers work wonders for that kind of stuff.

We'd do the same thing except that all of the equipment has been in the hands of those who don't know anything about computers (hence why they're taking the class) and have been disassembled/reassembled at least twice every year for the past seven or eight years or more, the hard drives having been formatted by FDisk and the XP installer at least 16 times a year into five partitions. You never know if you have a wonderful part or one that's about to kick.

Haha, watching that again reminds me of my sabotage...I beat that one with the huge lego-built swinging arms by stealing one of the bearings he was using as weight in the boxes.

So do we... What state do you live in? My school is just about as big as yours, and has all that stuff about teachers freaking out about hats and cell phones and I-pods, confiscating them or worse.
Best story is probably that they only have late buses Wednesdays and Thursdays, because "its too expensive" to run them all week, but can spend 14,000 on an electrical sign that is never used.

I live in Washington along the columbia.

:lol
You think people should walk around with cell phones/iPods and use them in class?
-
ipods actually yes, i and others work alot better with them. however last year they changed the policy, but some teachers still allow us...
we get brand new buses every 2 years its in our contract with the bus company... we are getting new ones again over christmas break.

Lucky, we have old buses with cameras and microphones EVERYWHERE. We also have cops everywhere and they all carry loaded, live rounds in their M9's.

I would not care about hats worn in classes, but cellphones and I-Pods i will confiscate them. They are a distraction and can be used to cheat on test. I never needed a cell phone or ipod during school and did ok. What's the excused for needed them in school?

Have you been tazed? It hurts like hell. But I managed to stay up along with 13 other kids.

Our buses' mics and cameras are only there for show, or at least my bus' camera is. We still ride a 33 person bus, with the engine in the back, though our route has 37 in the morning and 44 on a light afternoon.

Try around 12 cameras, and about 8 microphones. Plus every officer keeps their hand by their weapon ready to fire. :bolt:

I got tazed once.
I was 8 and i played with my mom's tazer (my mom was a cop) and it went off into my stomach and i nearly soiled myself it hurt so much.
My mom didnt let me even go near an electrical outlet for 3 years.
shes paranoid like that.

newer buses about to get replaced (ours are all orange-yellow): http://www.thomasbus.com/bus-models/school/saf-t-liner-c2/
new buses (complete with built in fugliness!): http://www.blue-bird.com/product.aspx?category=school&item=Vision
i like our current buses... i can actually stand up in them all the way plus the big windows are nice. they are replacing them because they were lemons, but they have since fixed all the bugs in them so i dont get why they are going to these new extremely ugly buses... but ill be driver myself to school within a couple of weeks anyways so it doesnt really matter.

Drug dogs? WTF?!? When does MY school get drug dogs?!? We could really use it... funny thing is, it's the teachers our state is watching. They tried to impliment random drug testing on teachers, and a strike was threatened as a response! lol. Perhaps someone is hiding something?
When we had "random" drug searches in our school, they announced every day for a week that it was going to happen. I dont think it had any effect.
-
It was always funny (for me anyways :) ) when they brought the drug dogs in.
A kid from my high school took a case involving drug dogs and strip search all the way to the Supreme Court and lost (451 US 1022). I was a senior at the time. Yes, I'm old. Anyway, the dogs were so incompetent that they 'hit' on my Calculus teacher's car. I remember the scene of him having to remove his hub caps while the Keystone Kops searched for drugs. My math teacher was definitely not a pot head. More of a Pat Boone guy.
You young guys can google Pat Boone. He makes a cameo in Wierd Al's 'Gump' video.
You really young guys can google Wierd Al.

So, they have a parking policy, where if someone doesn't park in the area they're supposed to, they get one of those yellow car boots. Well, this guy named Nick, he has this HUGE green dodge, raised a good 8-12 inches, with huge bellybutton tires, and all last year, he parked in the lot for seniors, and they couldn't boot him for it. Well, THIS year, he's a senior, so, he parks there anyways, but just to make sure he won't screw up, the school spent 1100$$ on a specially made parking boot, just to boot his truck. When he already gets to park where he wants this year. :lol
buddy he told me that he was thinkin about gettin bigger tires so theyd have to get another.

haha, you stupid basterd. That'll learn ya.
