You're just begging for people to call you a suburban elitist. You know that, right Trav?

You're just perpetuating the perception of DISD as a violent underachieving district. It's terrible people like you that made me weasel into PISD. (So they know to blame you personally)

LOL suburban elitist...My home school was Adamson High, over off Jefferson Ave. Previous to that I went to Stockard Middle School in Oak Cliff. For me it was simply a matter of survival. I would have ended up dead, or in jail, if it happened that I was forced to go Adamson. Luckily for me, the Business Magnet had space for a white boy. I was used to being a minority by then.
