I totally agree that it's annoying to have people treat you like you're somehow
mentally impaired, but going off of what Reven and Maya said, and as we all
know from experience, most people just don't know, and the ones that are

It's where you go to homeroom at the beginning of the day and get these
sheets of paper with blanks for each class (like math and history and
stuff.) Then, your teachers write in what they recommend you for, or what
they discuss with you. This'll be the last time I do it, seeing as I'm
I put differently-textured stickers on the 5, the start, and the stop/clear,

lol, OSSB and their policies. Speaking of Ohioans and thinking differently,
yesterday I was observing a freshman english class, and this one kid was
