Buchanan highschool is very deceiving. It comes off as a military honoring school, but in reality it is as anti military as it can get. The only way you can speak to members of the military during school is if your parents allow you to. They have to fill out a permission slip allowing you to speak to the military. It is a shame that Buchanan has Veterans memorial stadium when they make it difficult for students to learn anything about careers in the military. Along with that, the teachers are very arrogant. They seem to call on students only to humiliate them. Instead of identifying the students' misunderstandings, they instead teach the kids to not raise their hands in fear of being humiliated in front of their peers. The lunches are also as bad as it gets. Chicken nuggets that taste like they have freezer burn. I'm not even sure that the burger meat is actually meat. Buchanan spends all its money looking good so that they get even more money from the district. Buchanan may look like a good school, but given the way these kids treat eachother I would rather go to gateway. read more
