I am currently a student at Cross High. I think the teachers are awsome, but my biggest problem with my school is that my class mates treat our teachers like trash.

I must admit, I was not on the same level as other College students, but that was my fault. The information was there, it was me as an individual not taking it. It takes much discipline to attend Cross High, and many students do not have that discipline. But it starts at home. So everyone that degrades or destroys Cross High, should evaluate themselves.
