Hawthorn Middle School South

A shit school with lots of show off jocks, sluts, and bitchy teachers. You can get in trouble for just about anything in that school, they are in the top 100 schools in IL (95th). The administration is gay. The principle is a bitch. There is never a day where there is no homework. You can expect to be in hell for the next 3 years of your life.

At my workplace, nobody employs the Hawthorne Effect ....so it should be no big secret that it sucks to work there.
