People have been telling me that Hononegah is at the top of some list for best...I dunno, best…read moreschool in IL or something like that. I graduated in 2005 and no, it fxcking isn't. Don't get me wrong, I miss high school...but when you get a little older, that's normal. It doesn't matter if its the best school or the worst. Hononegah is somewhere in between, but closer to the latter. Its a good facility and all, but the younger teachers are sort of uninvolved, run-of-the-mill douchebags. I mean, go to a bar and there's a decent chance you'll see your old chemistry teacher spilling a beer on some freshly 21-year-old girl, trying to take her back to the condo. Rockton-Roscoe is a pretty OK place to raise kids because the cops are insidious asshxles, fresh out of the academy, so they keep shxt locked down. Besides Walmart, Hononegah is the best thing Rockton has going for it, and that ain't sayin' much.

RMS sends home a password to their "Parent Portal" program which allows you and your student to look over grades without having to wait for midterms or emails from teachers. There are very few elective classes (if any); however, there are honors classes that function very similar to AP classes. The classes for each grade's section (West and East) are bunched into a single hallway, so once your student reaches high school, he or she might be a bit frightened at the distance between classes.

If I could rate this stupid ass school -5 stars, I would. I was here in 8th grade, it was one of…read morethe worst experiences of my life. One of the teachers noticed my recent self harm marks and asked about it and when I said it was just cat scratches they didn't say anything about it or contact anyone, even though it was obviously self harm marks. The only time I was called to the counselor's was when I said I hated this school and the counselor apparently had to email my mom about it. I was bullied here and when my mom told the teacher of the class I was being bullied in, they told my friends even though my mom specifically had told them not to tell anyone, this was especially bad because the bully was one of my 'friends'. I would also get physically harassed in that class, and none of the teachers noticed. The teachers would yell at us and give us way too much homework, I'm in high school now and I get way less homework than I did then. When I was failing in my classes nobody contacted my mom, she had to check on a website for the school. The rules were also very strict, you only could drop off and get your stuff from your locker (which you had to use) in only about 5 minutes. They strictly did not allow phones and if they saw you with it, it would be an immediate detention. They so desperately tried to make the school fun, with half assed events and drawings to get candy of you did something 'good out of the ordinary' which almost nobody got and nobody wanted. In gym class they would overwork you too much and circle jog oh circle jog, the golden star of gym class. Circle jog is an activity that we had to do all week or just one/two days of the week, circle jog is were you jog around the gym to a song that often has a 1-3 minute guitar solo. Most of the students after the jog were exhausted but if you started walked during circle jog you would be yelled at and points would be taken off for participation that day. Circle jog was also unnecessarily long and everyone and I tell you EVERYONE absolutely hated circle jog. I think that's it for now. Before I go I have one last thing to say, fuck you Roscoe Middle School.
