I am a 2006 graduate from Lane and now living in Canada. i heard about the phase but wow i didn’t hear about in this way. that must have been very difficult to attend school under such conditions. I guess i should be thank ful for what i was given when i was there. but im truely sorry to hear that this is what my old high school has turned out to be now.

He comes to our after class math tutoring, which teachers provide every day without extra pay. Notice the quality of Ubayed’s writing – not too shabby! Good job on the picture, Ubayed, and a great essay as well!

I love the lion in chains. It is exactly how all the schools are being treated. The answer is not to charter every school but to help them.help them get to where they need to be its not abort passing a test its about preparing students to face college and the word off independence.
