[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get that college acceptance rates are important, but there are other factors too. My MS (Hammond) kid had to deal with not enough bathrooms, insufficient passing time between classes in an overcrowded building (and finding classroom doors locked per school rules when arriving 1 min. late as a result), administrators moving through the halls yelling at kids thru bullhorns, the cafeteria running out of food, and the general feel of a place that’s more like a prison than a human educational institution. The icing on the cake is watching a parent bring up the bathroom issue and the superintendent just responding, “bathrooms are available.” So at least while they’re in MS, even fabulous college admissions are unable to compensate for daily life in these buildings.[/quote] Were bathrooms locked or just not enough of them? I’ve heard the former but never knew how prevalent it was.[/quote]
