Our college prep counselor is a lunatic. She once grabbed a friend of mine's package and she took a picture of herself holding up her arm and smiling as her submission for a TB test thinking she could just send that in, and she did it right in the middle of a seminar. Then she asked my friend if she could pay him for sex. Today she decided the entire school should take the PSAT.
Sophomores and select Juniors will be taking it. Freshmen and Seniors will take the practice PSAT (that's right - the practice practice test). Our kids aren't eaxctly the best behaved students in the world. Also, they're in homeroom for this, which is not a really structured classroom to begin with. So I'm in homeroom for three hours with 30 freshmen trying to force them to take a test they know doesn't count for anything.
I spent the first half hour struggling to get them to be quiet and pay attention to the test with no results. So I gave up. I really hate homeroom. There's no set curriculum but we're still expected to teach them something. I don't have a classroom, but for some reason the guy who's room I'm in has no homeroom while I have to travel here to babysit these freshmen. It's completely stupid, and so is this ingenious plan to make every kid in the school take a practice practice college entrance exam.

Please leave a name, even if it's a fake name. And try not to be an asshole.
