yeaa I know hehe
Im not offended. I think over the next few years we will improve though due to Mrs Wratten being our new principal. Currently HAHS is I think the most traditional ag school, so that's why they have so many agriclturally related state rankers

I agree with the bold part. haha.
But why does it matter that they offer those subs? Students should be allowed to do whatever the hell they want. Doesn't matter whether they're selective students or comprehensive students.

Yeaa man :) Mrs Wratten is ex vice principal of Ruse. She's sure to lift the bar higher at HAHS, maybe even up to Ruse standard in a few years
The principal alone can only do so much. Why Ruse has been up there at the top is because of the quality of its intake. I'm sure some of the private schools which have achieved good ranking have done so by buying talent - with so-called scholarships.

We got 6 all-rounders in a conservative school. I am so proud of them :)

Well, i personally see her managerial activities as principal are conducive to producing successful students. People who dislike her are most probably the people who dislike school, and most probably the less capable students. I dont mean everyone, but most.
