This is both hilarious and sad:

Glenda Frost, 17, whose mother, Sandra, was an early volunteer at the
school, withdrew from the school in December when she and her parents
got fed up with behavioral problems, poor management and below-average
educational opportunities.

"We weren't getting required classes, teachers didn't use textbooks,
and I felt like if I took the state test, I don't think I could pass
it because we weren't learning what we needed to pass that test. We'd
learn about the Black Panthers, Cesar Chavez, and it seemed like we
were just learning the stuff over and over again," said Glenda, now a
senior at Skyline High School. "In ninth-grade humanities, we learned
about the Black Panthers and in 10th grade, we learned about it again.
I had a teacher who told students to pull out a history book and find
Malcolm X and Cesar Chavez, and when they didn't find them, he said
the books were biased and full of lies. And that was the last time we
opened the history books."

"I felt like I was wasting my time at that school, talking about
revolutionary stuff and saving our kids, but not teaching us
anything," Glenda said.
