"In our small rural town in Kansas, which was mostly comprised of farm kids from all over the county, the older junior and senior-aged kids were allowed to drive the buses on the rural routes. One of our drivers, who was a senior, used to hit a big hill at top speed, and it would make the fire escape door fly off the back of the bus."
Yup. In 7th grade we had a gym teacher that would make us dry off just outside the shower, drop our towels in the bin, and have to walk to our lockers naked.
teachers let students go to the shop to buy him beer or cigarettes.
That same teacher allowed students (13-16 years old) smoke in class when they pay him some money. This in a school that did not allow smoking outside on school property. (early 90's)
