Hey, HC!

Unfortunately summer ended and now I'm technically unemployed. That said, I am at the

#1 HIGH SCHOOL IN AMERICA

again.

Steven Chu and Arne Duncan have visited TJ during my time here, however Obama is unlikely to be interested in visiting TJ because when guest speakers visit we* like to ask "difficult questions" and get vocally upset when they are inevitably dodged.

*there is a substantial minority of students that enjoy this behavior. They see it as a sophisticated prank. Many however think it is obnoxious. Personally I'm conflicted because I think these questions are fair game, but then again visits by important people often result in $$$

Also, the administration sometimes cracks down on this by reviewing your questions beforehand and are careful to pick students that won't offend. But they didn't when Duncan visited.

#1 high school in america is like wearing your ****ing high school football championship ring well after the fact.

My school was also featured in the movie The Happening, by the way

As for the rest of the article:

Masterman, at 17th and Spring Garden Streets, is consistently Pennsylvania's top performer in 11th-grade math and reading scores. It's also typically ranked in U.S. News and World Report's top 100 high schools.

Spots in the school are highly coveted; some parents go so far as to ask politicians to write letters of support for their children to win admission. Students must have high PSSA scores, excellent grades, and good behavior to enroll in Masterman.

The children of many of the city's movers and shakers attend the school. Mayor Nutter's daughter, Olivia, is a 10th grader there.

Actors Kevin Bacon and Will Smith attended the school, as did concert violinist Leila Josefowicz.

Everyone can please stop counter-trolling Alby on my behalf. The disparaging comments aren't clever, just rude, so they aren't funny. And honestly Alby is reasonably intelligent as long as he isn't talking about higher education, Jews and women. Believe me, I don't need your reinforcement to know that I go to a good high school.

Also @MRT144: We have gotten #1 from US News every single year since they started giving out the award.

Always happy to give someone a laugh, Alby. But I'm being serious. I'm tired of the unfunny insults being thrown at people when Ben Kenobi* is still on the forum. If you're gonna be a dick, at least be ****ing funny for christ's sake.

*plus a few other idiots

I have no intention of cutting him any slack, dude.

speaking of which, I know you don't care about football, but even you, with your little knowledge, might find this incredibly insane...

Did someone seriously use a US News ranking to try to justify something?
