(In Finland junior and senior high are two different schools, and anyone can apply for any senior high. You can imagine my culture shock when I moved from a working-class junior high to "one of the most prestigious" and "hardest to get into" high schools in the country.)

The last person mentioned in the "administrative principals" section was my junior high drama teacher. My guidance councilor there was actually the first person (besides myself) to suggest that it wasn't really working out, it's not you, it's me, and that I should break up with the high school.

Here's some notable vandalism:According to several students, there is slight prejudice within the foreign language department. On several occasions, a Spanish teacher was heard to say nasty comments about the Japanese Two students without any proof of any wrong doings on the part of the Japanese students. Sadly, this injustice has been ignored by school officials.
Rock Bridge houses many school clubs, the most notorious being 'Kawaii Club.' They are known to wear anime costumes and watch strange Japanese television shows. Another well-known club is the Harry Potter club, commonly known as Portkey Club or "The Portkey."
Bruce Wilson is one of the best Old West Teachers at Rock Bridge, Wait I forgot he is the only Old West Teacher AT Rock Bridge, So he is also the worst.
Its crosstown rival is Hickman High School. They usually suffer losses to Hickman because of its dominance in every sport Most students have one Alternating Unassigned Time, referred to as AUT, during which students are allowed to go the library and computer labs, seek help from teachers, or, with parental permission, leave campus and be gay.
Nick Peters is transferring here boi.
Just recently, a new administration that has been installed in Rock Bridge that features a new principle, Dr. Andy Kohl, has created a more stern and strict atmosphere at the school. This has provoked rumors of the dismissal of the traditional AUT program, block scheduling, and tighter policies on students in the hallway. Most of the students and teachers at Rock Bridge are against this and have voiced their oppinions about the way Kohl has run the school. Many say that he was not ready to lead the second largest high school in the state of Missouri.
The new school boasted an innovative approach to education with open spaces and flexible walls. The architectural plan, which received national attention for school design is a metaphor for the philosophy of the school. The hallways speak at once of responsibility and freedom. Numerous skylights suggest a curriculum without a “ceiling,” while masonry floors provide a solid foundation upon which students can build their futures.
Rock Bridge Highschool is named after a rock bridge.....No one really knows why they named a highschool after a rock, bridge, but no one cares either because their gay. In the past only gay people have gone to Rock Bridge, but with this years incoming sophmores, they hope to change that. Despite being rich, selfish scallywags, Rock Bridge ulumni try their best to succeed in life like their cross town rivals, but have yet to succeed. It has been recorded that even Douglass Highschool has a higher percentage of scholarships offered than the Rock Bridge Highschool students. This may be because of the amazing athletic ability of the Douglass basketball players (negroes), but thats no excuse.
Not really vandalism, but it's still pretty funny:Rock Bridge is one of the most acidemically advanced high schools in the state of Missouri.

Actually, Cis has a good point re: the wealthier demographic of North London. There was always this intangible difference, or should I say distance between they and I, which dissolved when I engaged them in individual conversation, but which returned when they massed together in their Hampstead packs and went off to a sleepover in some sixty-acre mansion. Fortunately for me, I had a posh enough voice to get by when wearing the same school uniform as the rest of 'em. Otherwise, I suspect I'd have been ostracised a little more. Westminster pupils (go 2 wiki if ye wants) generally came from 2 areas: Camden and Kensington/Chelsea. I alone flew the flag for Lewisham, and the distance often became a little irritating.
