The idea school

A school for those who learn better through projects, or to be honest, kids who just don't want to do homework or study for tests. Most of them have gotten kicked out of another high school, and about 60% are gay. Walking the halls of this school you will probably see people randomly doing the gay hand flick to each other, people listening to music and ignoring everyone else, and people with newly dyed hair.
