A school, not like any other school. This school is the first school in
Florida to have the I.B. program. A program, which, super
smart kids go to so that they can be better than everyone else. Over 50% of the I.B. population is
Asian, this is because Asians are smarter than the white and black folk, unless you are French. An interesting fact of the students of the I.B. is that 1/4 of them consider suicide from the
work and stress overload, testimonies have stated that children can possibly get over 9 hours of school
work a day. Of this 25% of students contemplating suicide, about half of them go through with it, so they
don't have to go through the hassle of completing high school.
St. Pete High School was founded by the all famous, Ponce De Leon during his early explorations. This is where the Spanish architecture came from. Also, after Leon founded and supported the school, he left for Cuba. Weeks later, he got a message that students were killing themselves from the
work overload. Leon, realizing what he created and how many lives he
may take, killed himself in 1521.
But once you overlook the
sad history of the school, you will feel proud if you can make it through, your life will be successful, but since all your
friends killed themselves, guess you won't have anyone to boast about your paycheck to.
My friend
Eric got to Junior year at St.
Pete High then killed himself. Jamie almost made it through St. Pete High, but killed herself
right before the Senior I.B. exams. I got through the damn school and have my own plantation.
