Beach Channel High School
Channel isnt as bad as everyone makes it seems, yeah theres fights but what school doesnt have fights? killing? no ive been there 4 years and not once have i heard of a killing and ive had family that had graduated from there and like i said befor not once have i heard of a killing. the teachers care about the studets unlike some school. its a shame that they are closing the schoo but its because the kids in the school dont no how to act and you cant put the blame on the staff because they really do try its the kids and the parent because they obviously dont care.
