John Burroughs High School

I love developing serve Emotional and mental health issues in a school environment where the admin made it so hard and consequential that you could not use the onsite facilities. Three kids committed suicide in one year while I attended.Having a cop on site doesn't make anyone feel any safer.

These guys won't play the bench even if they're losing or winning 40-0.  No honor here

I'm currently a student here and the amount of homophobia, racism, etc. that I've seen here is disgusting. Students will use racial and homophobic slurs and say things such as, "Id beat the sh1t out of any gay person in this room." They offer gender support programs, but as they offer then they will still misgender students in the processing of offering it. The gender neutral bathrooms they do have are only available to staff and the one that's actually open is used for students to get high during lunch. For a school that preaches that it's a "safe space" they do nothing to prove that. School staff also do not take mental health and student safety as seriously as they should. When a student says they are at risk for homelessness it is your job to believe them and not try to minimize their home situation. As someone who's had that happen to my very close partner extremely recently, I am honestly disgusted by the office staff here. When I personally tried to report being recorded to the principal, he had just sent me away and told me to go deal with it through someone else rather than actually offer any help. The school doesn't genuinely care about students, especially those who are LGBT or those are dealing with issues at home.

Matt hill, the superintendent of this school and his actions with the baseball team for taking pictures for the moms with out masks is an over reach of power and a gross example of the "how dare you defy us" mindset. They didn't deserve the punishment they got, what they did wasn't dangerous and it's just someone in power making an example of someone.
