This is as bad a sexting,, Your typing one thing and I and trying to agree... Dah...

We agree,, and NY use to have the tiered solution. We had pre-college and I forgot what the other classes were called.

I know I was really pissed when Coach Morris brought his 1947 Chevy pick-up in and the senior class used it for a shop project..

I wasn't allowed to take shop, it has haunted me for a long time...

Who is responsible,, THE PARENTS... and they aren't doing such a good job...
