Reply to comment by Former-Stranger3672 in Racism in high schools? What is this? by [deleted]

Was this Monadnock? I would not be surprised in the slightest if it was and I can name at least a few people who I could have seen doing this right off the top of my head.

God damn that school was a nightmare.

I was there when most of the Bates and Bidwell clans were attending. The stories about them alone (let alone all the other people there) require disclaimers regarding their truthfulness, because no one would believe them otherwise. It was a tremendously fucked-up school then and I've been told that it has not changed one bit since I last set foot on the property over a decade ago.

Sucks to hear that it hasn't gotten better. I think that school did a lot of damage to a lot of people, I don't really hear it get mentioned often so my ears prick up when it does. Glad you got out and hope you are healing up from it!

Most Mondocock alums compare horror stories about it. It amuses me in a Grand Guignol-esque way - it was like going to high school in the hospital scene from Jacob's Ladder.
