Metro, commonly referred to as "hell" by the sophomore class, is a STEM school.
Metro was created on the idea that kids could go on an accelerated school life, and go straight to college. By doing two years of college, students can get a start into the world.
Metro constantly changes, leading to confusion. Seniors relax, knowing that they will never again have to deal with Metro's flux, while the freshman class dread the upcoming years.
Procrastinators are never punished, thus everyone at Metro procrastinates in some way. The only way for a procrastinator to become punished is if the teachers call the parents. Students who find themselves on the receiving end of this expect to hear lectures.
Grading is one thing that has not changed in the history of Metro. At Metro, one must meet what is called MASTERY, or a 90% or higher. Failing to receive this grade, even receiving 89%, results in the dreaded WIP.
Metro runs on an online system. Students submit work onto a site called Taskstream, which are then graded by teachers that are tech-savvy enough to use a Mac. If a student does not have access to a computer, the school will provide a used MacBook. If the student does not have Wi-Fi, the school simply shows the kid to a hotspot.
The other part of Metro's monitoring system is known as PowerSchool. This is a grade book where teachers can put grades, giving parents a way to monitor kids. However, teachers never update their grade book, usually leading to classes with no grade.
Powerschool Grade: 89% (WIP)
Parent: Powerschool says You're not meeting your potential. I sent you to Metro Early College High School so that you could meet your potential
Student: Ok. (Notices lack of grading in over two months.)

A high school in Manhattan and Queens where you do college work in 11th and 12th grade. Everyone wants to get into the schools but only around 1% of applicants actually do. It gives so much work that you can't socialize unless you are a superhuman. Lunch is spent doing homework.
Have you heard that Jane went to Bard High School Early College? She can't call us anymore because of the homework.

The best 3 weeks of my life. Don't go-when you leave, you'll fall into a major depression. If you do go, try your hardest to make the time pass very very slowly. And during the last quad time sit in a circle and let the nevermores sit in the middle. Keep the tradition going.
For those that have no idea what the hell I'm talking about, CTY is nerd camp. But its still amazing.
If Farinon isn't open next year, I'm gonna....

A school so boring you would want to kill your self. There are no sport teams and every program they try to make is pure trash. Their student government voting system is all a popularity contest. Teachers are AmAziNg. We only stay in that school because of the opportunity’s it gives the student. End Of StOrY.
Nicotra early college charter school. that definition of boring.
Place where you lose your soul. Forever.
Saint Johns River Community College
A finishing school for bigots.
The typical student at Hampden-Sydney College hates everyone except for other white men.
