- i think that this school is like a magical forest. filled with magical elves and unicorns scurrying and galloping around the gumdrop mountain. little angray red faced dwarves making all types of metals and mirrors. and a golden pear named Gaspachio who can help you with you math homework and get rid of bullies nad help you talk to girls. its wonderful.

- I think what that person said about how she hated going to lexington High School was wrong and I think Lexington High school is awesome and has fun things for us to do.
