Bro this school is the worst. Students aren't allowed to defend themselves, like for example, yesterday one of my friends got suspended for a day for defending himself from someone who assaulted him.

The school has no AP or honor courses. They do not weigh classes. Students who take the easiest classes possible can be valedictorian. A small amount of the teachers actually care about the students and education. Teachers at Oblong High mostly advocate mindless memorization. In all of my days at oblong I only sat through one class where I was actually told to think. The same teacher left the next year for a better job. This is a great day-care in which after graduation the students join the uneducated mass called America.
