Emsley A. Laney High School

So many Bees. Outside the window, in the trash can, indoors, and even on report card! This is ridiculous!

They teach you here

hi, get out me swamp

Micheal Jordan went here

This school is a meme

This school is a mess! If you look on 99% percent of the stair cases you will find used condoms and dead roaches inside the condoms. The school's cafeteria is a utter garbage. There is roaches and flies baked in the food. Hornets make huge nests in the garbage bins. Seagulls attack the students and beg for food. The Police are not even attentful and you can literally walk off campus and they do nothing about it but wave and say "be safe"... The teachers literally slave in the classrooms and consistently complain about low pay and horrible students. I can literally walk the halls for an entire class period and not be questioned. The students smoke and sell drugs and carry weapons on campus. If your not careful the students throw freshman in garbage cans in sometimes in the foods class ovens! This school is also a mess in it's grading system. It still uses the tired 7 point scale. Most MODERN schools use the 10 point scale. Meaning a 50 is a D. The school uses it's own dust to clean the floors! The seniors don't care about anyone at all and will mow down people going up the stairs. Speaking of which, if you fall down the stairs people point and laugh without a care in helping you up. Your child will hate it here and would rather die then wake up knowing he/she has to go to this living hell hole!

Most of the faculty I have had teach me has ignored blatant anti semitism directed towards me. Even worse they don't even have the dates for the summer school WHICH SOME KIDS NEED TO GRADUATE ON THEIR WEBSITE. Do N O T enroll your children here.

But this school is trash. Teachers sit back and try to survive the day. Theft is a constant. My son had an iPod stolen from him and offered back to him for sale the same day, and even though I verified the serial number on the iPod to the principal over the phone, he would not recover it. Apparently I can randomly guess these things, I should play the lottery. My son also had his bookbag stolen from him twice in a crowd, nothing can be done about that either. I was told he needs to be more careful.

This is less like a HS and more like a prison apparently. The guards are afraid of the inmates, I mean kids.

As for academics? The best thing about Laney is that it is so close to Cape Fear CC, that way the kids can see their future. Community College at best. Hardee's College more likely. Do you want fries with that?

worlds biggest s*** hole there is trash everywhere there is bees in all trash cans teachers are more stupid than the kids no one goes to class and half the kids there are high as s*** h*** when i went there i never went to class no teachers cared what i did and i was high of my a** on codeine in the middle of class all the time and no one said a word my best advice for you is to drop out like me and say f*** school

2 worst years of my life. Made me clinically depressed.
