Category: Guidance Counselor Who Needs To Be Counseled
Mr. Englerth
Honestly, your entire situation sounds absolutely awful, so I don't want blame you for anything...but still, let this be a cautionary tale to others. "Guidance" counselor is often a misnomer for these people when it comes to anything non-academic. (And for some, like Mr. Englerth, also when it comes to academics.) They love it when you confide in them about difficult stuff because then, if you see any success, they can feel like the hero who saved you. However, rarely are they genuinely helpful. I had Mr. Englerth. The man's been in the job for over twenty years--the only useful thing he can do is tell you what kind of SAT/grades (and in some cases, extracurriculars) most colleges are looking for...which Naviance can honestly just as easily tell you. I don't think he has the best understanding of what a lot of elite colleges are looking for (for me, he couldn't explain how to boost my chances at Cornell or Brown)--which is one of the few specialized pieces of info you would expect someone in his position to have. Or maybe, he just really hated me and didn't want me to have a chance at those schools. I ended up not applying to either because he advised against it. :( And what's worse, he legitimately misadvised kids about which colleges would be a "good fit." He assumed U of R would "potentially re-ignite mental health issues" because he's heard "kids are very focused on GPA and stuff there." I completely had the grades and scores for the school--and probably the personal essay too--I now regret trusting his advice. Moreover, I don't have mental issues--I was just in a narcissistic relationship that created circumstantial stress and led me to believe *I* was "the insane one." (I'm past it now. :) ) Honestly, no disrespect to the guy, but I need to be blunt. He's in a throwaway job! (And still failing at it.) He's so much better at "guidance" on the basketball court, so honestly, he should probably just focus on that. Please don't confide any personal stuff to him unless there's absolutely no choice; as much as it seems like I'm challenging him in this review, I acknowledge he's a kind man and genuinely wants to help kids. Unfortunately, he's not the most capable at that. And in general, I don't know that most guidance counselors are much better advice givers (when it doesn't come to academics). Sure, they're probably better at helping kids get into the colleges of their choice and less...presumptive in their academic advice. I've heard Mendon has some of the best ones (other than Mr. Englerth)...and I know so many kids who have had issues with every single one of the counselors at Mendon. Moral: never confide personal stuff to a guidance counselor--unless it's really, really good stuff that could *never* be used against *anyone* and could help them write a better rec letter.
Assuming I can't handle advanced classes or regulate my mental health ...

Mr. Englerth tried to sue the school district his kids attended, Penfield Central School District, because he slipped on ice in one of their parking lots. However, the defendant argued that the fall happened during a storm in progress, removing their liability. Mr. Englerth lost.

One thing that is indisputable. The "kid" has lied and attempted to deceive others. That is the takeaway. For those of that were on the fence about the "kid's" comments, we now know.

Please stop claiming that I am going to shoot up a public space. I have no history of mental illness, so there is no way I would “snap” and commit violence. Mind you, I have no interest in owning even a BB gun—let alone one of the assault rifles that people use to keep shooting up schools. It’s disgusting that school shootings are such a common occurrence in the U.S. that schools are actually constructed with the threat of a mass shooting in mind. If you want to learn how to prevent these horrible events, I recommend We Say #NeverAgain: Reporting by the Parkland Student Journalists. It provides insight in how to support victims of these events as well as ways to get involved in activism to prevent shootings. Please stop trolling random people on the internet, and spend your time on something more constructive; God knows our great country needs people to care about issues like these.

Hey kid. As an observer of your mini posts on this website I can tell one thing is for sure. The only way you'll ever achieve any type of notariety or fame is for you too run away from home so your picture ends up on a milk carton. I assume Mr James gave you some advice.

Kid Rating Ms. McGarrity
She is okay I guess.. only gets a 2 because I have a good grade in her class right now. She argued with me on what my 504 accommodations are, like I WAS AT MY OWN MEETING AND YOU WEREN’T also, why do you want me to not have them THAT BAD? You’re literally breaking the law. Also, she doesn’t let us eat in class. Like what if I’m hungry? Guess I’ll starve. She also hates people having gum. She’s always screaming “SPEET OUT TEH GAM”. She literally wrote up a kid for having his bag on his chair and not NEAR THE FRONT. That’s so dumb; like first of all, what if we need to get something out of the bags? We have to walk all the way to the front and walk all over the mess of other bags on the floor because you know kids can never do anything correctly if they already don’t want to. Not only can you trip, but also it’s a HUGE HASSLE. This teacher is just a huge control freak and it’s honestly quite creepy. She also gets mad at us for being later on things when she is absent for whole days. Why do you get an excuse but we don’t? Also, her projects are just impractical and weird. She made us draw a portrait with strange proportions. Not even mentioning we had to draw ourselves. We’re high school teens, ALMOST NO ONE LIKE HOW THEIR FACE LOOKS, SO WHY DO WE HAVE TO DO THAT. She also is so mean to everyone. She yells at people, and kicks us out. She also said my best friend’s artwork is unoriginal. (The at is literally her own ideas and I even help her, and they are all of her cat. Who else is drawing this specific cat? LITERALLY NO ONE!) this teacher made her so sad, she is thinking about quitting art; her life’s passion, because there is no other teacher for AP art. (She is the teacher for both normal and AP art, which I and my comrade are in respectively, so there is no escaping her unless you quit art.) overall, I have a good grade so a 2, but otherwise a 1. She is inconsiderate, mean, and demands respect that she doesn’t even give us.

Um, the kid denounced all kinds of violence towards those they disagree with. It's also a little ironic that this side is accusing the kid of being insane when y'all have literally sent r*pe threats this kid's way.
What a freak. This kid will end up in the news. Mass shootin.

Wow, it's so--psychologically fascinating--that you have *** fantasies abt a girl you never met. You should let a psychiatrist know abt your thoughts so that they can gain some groundbreaking insight on mental health. They'll probably have to let a whole team of medical professionals know about your mental health because it's so...extraordinary.
