Cluster school

Aww man... now i can't make fun of Asma anymore.. My school has opted for the "cluster title"..

In my opinion, this sucks.. Imagine having to start school earlier and finish later..even the teachers are against it..but somewhere up there, somebody wants it pretty badly..Cluster.. this means that students that under-perform in their studies has to be transferred out..I know it's good..but competition is gonna get pretty tight soon.. And discipline.. it's sure going to get tighter a notch..

For us, school can be said more "fun" than other schools.. Mention my school name, and lots and lots of interesting stories comes out.. Teachers seldom enter school.. the only school which allows students to keep their hair..arrogant students..bunch of monkeys..everything..! Well, this may not sound nor look good.. But it actually helps us develop..Students can't really develop under a situation where the book is in front of the eye the whole day..

And now, everything is going to get spoilt by CLUSTER.. dumb title..isn't being called a premier school enough?? We are still to see how it goes..lucky for me, i'm getting out of this nightmare in a few months more..

What struck me most.. I never knew things in my school could last.. I went to a girl's school for debate competition, and saw all the decorations around the school.. i thought to myself.."i wonder how long these things would last in my school"..at the same time, my friend laughingly said..i bet this (the decoration) won't last a day.. But, ever since we were informed that Pendidikan is going to "pantau" our school, a miracle is happening.. Classes are decorated..!!!

When i say decorated, i seriously mean DECORATED..!! Clases are beautiful!! neat..clean..everything u can think of.. there are flower and plants on teacher's table in some classes.. Suddenly, "reading corners" are appearing..carperts are laid in class..dirty shoe prints are painted over..haha

Looks like "cluster" has brought out the better of us.. to me, i see it as acting..something we are proud of and profesional in.. We'll see how long all these will last..Anyway, goodluck to my school in achieving your "clustercity"..
