I see you met our student body president, Juario. I’m Principal Dadier, and unlike every other adult you’ll meet in your young lives, I am going to level with you. I’m no different than you. I mean, now you guys are young, but you’ll be in your mid to late twenties someday and you will look around and be like where’s the grown-up in this room. And it’s going to be you. It’s crazy.

Sample dialogue
This education thing is so much more messed up than you could possibly imagine. About a third of my teachers are awful and they can’t be fired. A kid died the other day and nobody’s doing anything, and now you guys show up with like a month left of school and cause trouble. If I have one more thing go wrong, I just think I’m going to basically lose it. I will have a straight up breakdown.
