the teachers here are unfair, if you don't play sports they don't care to know you.
the deans don't care what your story is, if a teacher tells a completley different one, the student is the liar no matter what.
and the janiters don't do a thing. every single time i see them they are standing around talking. our school is so dirty and crappy. there are huge bugs, and mice, and all that gross stuff. something needs to be done about the teachers especially. it's unfair to the rest of us that have lives, and doesn't have time for sports

i really wish other students at my school could spell. our school lunches are pretty rockin', but they took away our washington d.c. trip because of the terrorists. we're bitter. and the girls' soccer team really needs new jerseys. forrizle.

Biglerville High School - a well brought up school. This school has high potential, we have a great marching band. They work so hard and have won many awards for outstanding accomplishments. BHS also has a good; chess, tennis, field hockey, soccor, and football team. Oh and their brainbusters team. So BHS is active with their students.
But how is the school working inside? teachers are great they do their best,so complaments to all of you. *my concern is how are the kids treating each other and how are the adults dealing with it?*Their are so many catorgerizes in school ... its been like that for years. but when kids get in fights and are bullied or picked on for who they are there is no justice. The teachers do the most expected thing ... when a kid comes for help. ...they say ignore it brush it off. these students are visious and the adults need to help those being hurt by the other kids.
