Slower Dauphin
Slower Dauphin is another word for Lower Dauphin High School in Hummelstown, PA. It is the worst school anyone could possibly go to. there's always some kind of disgustingness going on there. whether it be people having sex in the bathroom, drug busts, or just plain stupidity. When people say they are going to fight someone they don't. People think they're tough shit because they can say someone about them over facebook or twitter. Teachers give you detentions for no reason. The principals don't know what's going on in the school. The football team is horrible and haven't won since... well ever. The cookies are only cooked for about 5 minutes giving you terminal illness. The nurses wouldn't send you home if your arm was falling off. And the teachers tend to "lose" homework even though you handed it in causing you to get a zero for the assignment.
