Signal Mountain Middle High School

Signal Mountain Middle High School is a Middle/High school located in Signal Mountain, Tennessee. More than 1350 are enrolled. 98% of the school consists of White Republican families that make over $200,000 in their household per year. To be considered decent by the school, you must have Social Media along with a fancy iPhone. The teachers have high expectations. They expect you to study for 9+ hours everyday. The teachers also make sure to give you lots of homework so you have to be locked up in your room studying instead of doing things you enjoy. If you have anything wrong with you, skin wise, looks wise, etc. they will make sure to destroy you will insults about it. No matter how much to try to make yourself decent, they will still insult you. If you are a decent person and not a social outcast, you will be welcomed.
Since my parents don't make $200,000 a year, I can't attend Signal Mountain Middle High School.
