WHY THE CHARTER SCHOOL OF WILMINGTON SUCKS:
1) The dress code. Really it's a freakish little close-minded uniform. Listen: no denim, no blacknailpolish, no blacklipstick, no unnaturalhaircoloring, Docker-style pants, POLO shirts, no BEDROOM SLIPPERS, no PURPLE WOMBATS OF DOOM KEYCHAINS!!!
2) School starts for freshmen on Wednesday, August somethingorother..as in TOMORROW!!!
3) They get ONE day out of thier uniform a month, and in October that day is Halloween, which would be a free-uniform-day anyway, so they get gypped a day.
4) 25% of the funding for buses was cut so there are about 3 and a half buses. On the roofs of these live Cows. Although we all understand the purpose of Cows in our Lives Now, (read Cow Page), there is a poem that explains how students feel about the cows:
Little birdie, in the sky,
Why'd you do that, in my eye?
I'm a big boy, I don't cry,
Aren't you glad that cows don't fly???
Except on the buses the cows DO fly.
5) They have to work seriously about 15x as hard as all other schools because they are a Charter School devoted to math and science. Doesn't that sound FUN???
6) MATH AND SCIENCE! That means almost nothing is devoted to the arts and writing departments, which sucks for all the kids who really want to be authors (cough cough) when they grow up but their parents are making them going there!!!!!!
7) The Charter School Building is in reality 3 (not one, not two, as would be reasonable, but the psycotic THREE!!!!) schools in one eensie-beetsie likkle building. Isn't that just BEAUTIFUL????
Okay, now I'm done my rant....BUT THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT ANY LESS TRUE!!!
