    My school's old pprinicpal...WOW lmao:

    Dr.Lee, became principal in 1992, served for 14 years, during which the school got more computer classrooms and the switch from traditional mechanical drawing by hand to teaching the use of computer-aided design programs. Lee also eliminated hallmark academic concentrations at the school such as aerospace engineering.
    In 2003, The New York Times published an investigative article that noted "longstanding tensions" between the faculty and Principal Lee, "spilled into the open in October, with news reports that several teachers accused him of repeatedly sending sexually explicit e-mail messages from his school computer to staff members".The article described the principal as autocratic, controlling the school "largely through fear and intimidation", and documented acts of personal vindictiveness toward teachers; severe censorship of the student newspaper and of assigned English texts, including the refusal to let the Pulitzer Prize-finalist novel Continental Drift by Russell Banks be used for a class; and of bureaucratic mismanagement.
    =================
    LMAO! Hilarious

    And you know what? He had left the school the year right before Smexy and I entered the school...symbolism much? Razz

    Yeah, I love my school. Espicially after reading this:

    Quantitative analysis and Organic chemistry senior year. Students take Quantitative analysis the Fall term, then Organic chemistry during the Spring Term, or vice versa. Both classes are intensive triple periods.

    wOOt!

    Could someone tell me why I choose Chemistry as my Major?

    Yes...you see...my schools (along with Smexy's) is a special school that you take an exam to get in...and so they don't follow most other High Schools. SO yes, it had majors.

    It has these majors:

    Aerospace Engineering
    Architectural Engineering
    Bio Medical Engineering
    Biological Sciences
    Chemistry
    Civil Engineering
    College Prep
    Computer Science
    Electro-Mech Engineering
    Environmental Science
    Industrial Design
    Law & Society
    Media Communications
    Mathematics
    Social Science Research


    Sophomore year (10th grade) you get a paper that gives you your ranking out of the 1200 Sophmores that are in your year. For all of those majors I ranged between 100 and 200. MY best was like media, architecture, law and society.

    My chem rank was like 174 and my bio was 154...but I still choose chem lol.

    Yeah

    and no Chem is easier than Bio.

    I took both Physics, Biology and Chemistry in high school.

    Biology was the hardest one, then physics, and chemistry was the easiest one.

    Sorry. But in my school Chem is harder. That is a universal fact in my school. Bio is all memorizing. While chem is solving complex problems. I am in AP Chem...not normal chem.

    I took IB chem.

    Anyways exactly: Chem is solving problems, Biology is memorizing. I hate memorizing, that;s the worst stuff for me to do. I prefer solving problems than memorizing.

    Here is Smexy's current US teacher Razz :

    "I've never studied for a test in all 11 years of my life in school, until I met this teacher. I can't say she's a good US history teacher, but she is a good life teacher. No other teacher has ever motivated me by failing me, pushed me, or completely changed how I study notes and review my work. To her, I have to give her props for changing the way I think about school. It is a shame I did not meet you earlier in life."

    " The orphan illegitamte child of satan, this overgrown cow does not deserve to be near children. She used racial epithets in the class room demeaning blacks on several occasions and is a very rude crass and unfriendly human being. Besides her character flaws her teaching is one that is overly dependent on trivial textbook knowledge, rather then good ole' honest learning from the teacher or from well explained notes. She works her students to a pulp, basically untill the no longer like history. "

    "She is the mother of evil. Her tests are evil. Her classes are evil. Why is she so evil? "

    "she is like a monster."

    "the only thing that can describe her is evil!!!!!"

    " When she asked my class a question, none of us would answer. Then she started yelling at us, and I wanted her to stop so I raised my hand and answered the question. Then she yelled at me for not participating sooner.. I bet she finds the tiniest habits of her students and tries to use that excuse to yell at us. ;-;"

    " LOL. Ms. Arucri is someone.. I've grown to love over the past few months. She's a brute, but she does it for our better. The funniest things I remember are her constant rants about how the Asians need English tutoring and how "it's a sad day in America." But, really guys! We all know we come out of her class as if we're coming out of a hell hole that taught us how to actually understand one of the suckiest concepts on earth- the study of History. Smile I love you Ms. Arcuri, either or. xD!"

    "She is THE WORST TEACHER at Brooklyn Tech. It is like she has no soul the way she acts. She constantly yells at kids for no meorizing what they read. She is a wicked beast and an evil person. IT is no wonder that she has no husband or kids, who the hell would tolerate her? She made my life a living hell. She criticizes everything you do. She grades homewrok like its an essay or project. She is very, very mean and constantly tries to make your life worse."

    Rofl

    Thank God I didn't get her Yay
