Worst and hardest years of a chids life.Worst and best teachers a child will endure. These are the years that will make or break a child! I will not mention teachers by name but a certain science teacher there is by far the worst teacher and just not a good person in general! I know you get out of education what you put in but there's always a teacher that just shouldn't be teaching and the OMS has a few. Sad for the children. :(
