Get the Rivermug. the whitest school of fort covington (literally the only school) new york. the only thing you’ll ever hear walking down the halls is white kids saying the n word, teachers completely ignoring it and kids taking pics of other kids jerking off in the bathrooms. oh the bathrooms. walking into the girls bathroom you’ll see a crowd of girls laughing with their vapes in their hands. can never pee in peace. and the boys bathroom i would imagine to be much worse. once a kid walked into class and put a peed on chromebook from the boys bathroom. the teacher touched it before being informed it was filled with pee.
