    • Mr. H. Was a cool guy, and a great teacher. So what if he made a "mistake"? The past/present students should be heard. We have always been told 'we can make a difference', well lets show them we can do it. Prove to Mrs. O that she's wrong, and that she's making a mistake! BRING BACK THE HAURGHTY!
