the self-proclaimed “pride of the poconos,” stroudsburg high school is famous for many things, including its lunchroom staff, who currently collectively hold the world record for fitting the largest sticks possible up their -sses, its splendid security staff, whose captain won this year’s greased pig contest (although he soon realized it wasn’t a pig, it was actually one of the other security officers), its highly nutritional and incredibly delicious lunches, consisting mostly of greasy, overcooked pizzas and calzones, and half-heartedly -ssembled hoagies (although, by the way the ham tastes, it would appear that they used the pig from that contest listed above to make them), its nursing staff’s incredible ability to cure any illness or injury with ice (not their fault, they’re not allowed to give out anything else), and most importantly of all, its incredible climate control, enabling the history hallway to be a sauna, while the science wing can be magically transformed into wetlands overnight. oh, and did i forget to mention the new cl-ssrooms? yes, they brought them in on the back of a few flat-bed trucks, and now they sit in the parking lots, taking up valuable parking sp-ce that the school board is always griping about not having. …they’re also the only rooms in the school that have air conditioning. doesn’t this all make you wish you went here?
we love stroudsburg high school…

update: october 2008

the last this writer saw of the school, pandemonium reigned supreme over any attempts at control that may or may not have been attempted by the faculty and staff.

two lockdowns in two years in response to terrorist threats of squirrel hunting have provoked a new, pseudo-uniform dress code in an attempt to get the kids to settle down and focus on learning. the kids, being kids, found this to be a travesty on par with slavery and the holocaust, and retaliated with sullen replies of “this sucks” and “i don’t wanna wear no stupid-a– uniforms.” the administration responded by cracking down on the dress code. they let everyone know that “slate” is not an acceptable color for pants, only black!!! also, they were kind enough to simplify people’s lives by making sure they only had to wear shoes with one color! anyone who dares to wear shoes with different color shoelaces, or a different color sole than the rest of the shoe will be punished like the commies they are!!!

don’t worry, the culprits of these acts were properly sentenced – i mean, reprimanded.

additionally, the existence of a padded room in one of the middle schools was recently revealed. one can only imagine what must be going on in there to warrant a padded room for 9 year olds.

this reporter regrets to inform you they are no longer able to be on the front lines, having matriculated, but contacts on the inside are getting news out. don’t worry, stroudsburgians! there’s hope.

there’s always hope.
stroudsburg high school: this place blows.
a typical high school with up/down staircases, a growing population of colored people, and red brick walls.

after disheartening and angering most students by establishing the dress code last year, the school has continued its desperate attempts to improve the students and education to remain in the ranks this year. those students who actually prefer the dress code probably also prefer being sn-bby -ssholes.

recently, mr. sodl has made a big d-ck of himself as princ-p-l and has lashed out on the students on many occasions. he basically tries to control the colored folks from getting too excited (as they tend to do), and improve test and s.a.t. scores. there was a small uprising rebellion during 6th period lunch on 3/19/10 as some unnamed heroes started a food fight that ended with sauce on the ceiling, which was probably the most pride any student of the poconos took in something.
– sodl –
i could suspend you all for 10 days, and have give no reason for it.
