8. Prince Georges County School officials are full of shit
They did next to nothing when my son was attacked on the way to class last year, even though I insisted that I wanted to file charges against the one kid who was identifiable in a mockery of an identification lineup.

When I applied for a transfer to another school, they said they simply couldn't send him to one of the 2 schools I'd find acceptable due to "overcrowding"; but they offered to send him to the nearest high school that was on the list for state takeover due to poor performance.

Now I have him enrolled in another program, and they're sending me notices that he's flunking all his classes, even though I withdrew him from the school.

His teachers were actually pretty good. At least they seemed concerned about their charges. The administration of that school, the board, and the superintendant all suck. My younger boy will not attend the county's schools.
