>>>>>>>>In high school, my sister's boyfriend was in a class where an important paper was due. He had it done, but forgot it in his locker. They did not let him go get it. He flunked the class, and as a result didn't get to play football for the rest of the year. He was a senior and a four year football starter. My high school was like the friggin twilight zone.

>>>Let me give you some incredibly good advice before you and your wife have kids: live in a good school district. Even if it costs more, which it probably will. I speak from unfortunate new experience.

>>I have always been of the opinion that small schools are best because of the great student-to-teacher ratio, but have learned that sometimes small town BS can trump that. I graduated with 34, and in my 4 years in high school have been harrassed by teachers, pinned against the wall by teachers and threatened, and been told by one teacher that he wanted to put a bullet in my head. I was kind of a smart-alec, but I wasn't THAT bad.

We did do some research when we bought a house, and we found a small town that was closer to a big city. Hopefully we found a good combination.
