If they need custom seating-- if they actually care what they sit on-- why don't they provide it themselves? :P

We need to have English classes; it's compulsory. But we will make it fun and every last student will get an A!

Does anyone know how to make math classes fun for the people who aren't naturally gravitated toward it?



I know how to make math fun.

English, too..... but it takes more than one curriculum, and it has to be individualized.

wow, I wish this place existed! (and that I was still in school)

how about...

1. optional hours: so nocturnal people can head to class at 9pm...

2. secret tunnels: for when you're really antisocial and don't want to talk to people. Of course, someone else could be using the tunnel at the same time, but you're allowed to ignore them if that happens...

3. Free Lectures: students can opt to give lectures on their interests to a wider audience (warned in advance), including people from outside the school- e.g. one day someone could stand up and talk about 'famous poisoners from the 20th century', the next, 'types of knitting patterns...'..

:)

Staff who actually look out for bullying and put a stop to it right away (it does happen between aspies, believe me!)
Separate dorms for those who wish to sleep at night, and for those who want to stay up playing video games and generally making a lot of noise.
