I had a problem with a teacher , she was so mean and cruel. Barely smiled , always in a crappy mood. She would tell us to shut up and write us up because we spoke up when she was wrong. When we went to the office to complain , we went several; times and no one attended us , until the teacher had complain about us acting up. Then they decided to step in , but like always took the teachers side. they barely even listened to what we had to say.
