Stupid school "politics"
 

My school has had the same football field for thirty years, so I was overjoyed when I heard that it was getting a renovation. The grass is getting replaced with astroturf and we are adding more bleachers.

On the last day of school before summer break, the construction company began work on the field. I was glad to see this. Then, last week, I visited the school for band camp and saw that the field had been torn up. I was glad to see the progress, that was until I noticed that their was no turf and all the bulldozers and vehicles were not there. I just shrugged my shoulders at the time and assumed that the workers had the week off.

Then yesterday I learned the truth. Apparently our rival school (Monarch High School), also hired the same contruction company to build a new football field for them. Because they are a large 5a school, and we are a small 4a school, the district decided to halt work on our field, and start their field, eventhough we hired them first. Now we are stuck with a half finished field with no grass while Monarch is enjoying their two fields. To make matters worse, my school football starts in 2 days and they have nowhere to practice.

I'm really pissed off. Monarch is a large school who has 3 feeders (mine only has 1) and they get about $50,000 more every year then we do. It makes me so mad to think that all the big, popular schools always get their way, whereas not-so-popular schools like mine, get left in the dust. Life isn't fair, and as I just learned, neither are school politics.

:mad:

Nice! tax dollars at work.

Re: Stupid school "politics"
 

thats how life works, if someone offers you more money (the other scholl probably did) then you serve them first, its not fair but its how it works. Anyway i hope you can find another person to finish the field for ya so you can start practice.

Re: Stupid school "politics"
 

How many students go to your highschool? It seems that your highschool is pretty big compared to mine..and that Monarch one seems huge compared to mine. Mine has 1700+ students..

Anyways, that sucks..

Re: Stupid school "politics"
 

That sucks but, it makes sense from the worker's point of view

Re: Stupid school "politics"
 

that really blows, you can't just leave i the middle of a job. any professional will tell you that.

Re: Stupid school "politics"
 

thats lame. i would expect nothing less from Colorado. wierd shit like that happened all the time when i was there.

hope you get your field soon.

Re: Stupid school "politics"
 

Actually your right that leaving during the middle of a job is bad and that a professional never does it and it's irrational. However since when has good and rational thinking had ANYTHING to do the with School Districts.

Oh god, suck it up. DOn't be such a baby, life isn't always fair, deal with it.

This is what you get for picking a sport where you play with balls.

Re: Stupid school "politics"
 

You are one lucky-ass son of a bitch.

You actually want to go to football practice?

lmao

Re: Stupid school "politics"
 

Naw, I don't play football. I'm not the sports type.

Well, my school has about 1500, probably less. That other school must have about 2000. They are huge!!!!!!!

Re: Stupid school "politics"
 

the same thing happened with my school and a gym. but i think we sued or something and got them to finish. oh well life sucks.

Re: Stupid school "politics"
 

it is common for schools to do something, then tear it down and do it over, or quite in the middle and do something else.

Common sense doesnt apply to school, and im not surprised, due to all the useless BS they teach kids nowadays.

BTW my school has almost 3000 kids
