With cornball names like "Landmark High School", "School for the Physical City", "Coalition School for Social Change", and (omg) "School of the Future" one would assume these were magnet schools attracting the best and brightest to experience Manhattan during their formative years. But no, these are remedial schools that are centrally located in great urban neighborhoods solely to corral the city's vandals, delinquents, and semi-literate and force them on the workers and businesses around Midtown. Here I was spending my high school years wallowing in an East New York backwater thinking that only gifted and the lucky got to go to school in Manhattan like the kids in "Fame". Turns out all I needed to be was a stupid, obnoxious, belligerent ghetto-rat.

"Hello, New York Post? 1956 called. They want their cliches back." LOL, I wonder if Clancy and the boys came in the Paddy Wagon and surrounded the ruffians.

I work in this area and it seems like the place is crawling with ghetto schools. You see these kids everywhere.

I'm glad to see that students across the city are excelling in their AP Stupidity courses.

"The Post reports that two girls had gotten "into a beef on Wednesday and told their boyfriends, who got together to rumble yesterday." Hello, New York Post? 1956 called. They want their cliches back.
