For many decades now, there has been an abundant amount of information that very clearly proves that the public school system in the US is endangering the children and failing to produce truly educated young adults that are actually employable after graduation. Sure, there are always the superior students that through their own excellent efforts, hard work, and personal strength, do well early in life, however it has been well known for decades that the average high school graduate has become less and less capable of dealing with the challenge of being young adults~! History, if it is ever recorded honestly, will show that Americans have in fact been COMPLETELY underserved by one of the most expensive so-called "public educational systems" in all of recorded history~! Parents who subject their children to the public school system these days, are making a very serious mistake that they and all of America will pay dearly for in due time~! There is no excuse for parents to keep shoving their children into the public-school disaster that has become nothing more than a dangerous political indoctrination "daycare prison", especially since there are several other better options these days~!

Sincerely, Mike

I used to be a qvsd student and when I was in 7th and 8th grade I was severely bullied by the actual STAFF. The principal, disciplinary, etc. at the time. I was told by them, that I didn't have any friends because I allegedly smelled bad, they had me shower early in the morning when first classes started so I missed out on learning time. I showered everyday at HOME and wore CLEAN CLOTHES from home, but they made me shower anyways. I asked my friends time and time again if I smelled bad and to be genuine, and they always said no. And they were confused by what the staff were saying. I was threatened with cps if I didn't shower and wear the uncomfortable clothes they gave me. The abuse, now that I realize is what was happening to me, caused my mental health to plummet so much that I genuinely wanted to end myself it was that bad. Th3y gave me razors to shave with, and with how badly i was being treated by it, and threatened i used them to self harm with, on my arms. There were time where they didn't have all of my clothes ready, and I was left with wearing only a short sleeves, v-neck shirt and leggings during WINTER TIME and POURING DOWN RAINING.Told me to stop expressing myself. One time the disciplinary came into the NURSE'S OFFICE while I was recovering from a ASTHMA ATTACK just to tell me that I smelled bad, and to stop wearing my wigs. Which I wore to express myself. I was sent home on numerous occasions because I 'smelled bad' so I missed out on countless lessons and such. They withheld clothing that belonged to my brother who was away in another state who I missed dearly at the time that I broke down when they took his coat from me. At one point, they called cps on my mom because she wouldn't come pick me up because I smelled bad and it wasn'ta medical emergency. They ended up calling my adult cousin to come pick me up instead, and she was mad about it. They tried to start it again when I started high school too by making me change my clothes once again, without telling me before hand about it. They only had one outfit for me as well.
