Additionally, there are of course the big shots. The head honchos. The ones who swipe your cell phone in class, discipline, and generally control the school system in an iron fisted grip. I am, of course, talking about the staff. *Principal* - can actually be a pretty amiable fellow. This is usually because he hands most disciplinary matters down to the dean and vice principal. *Dean of Students* - usually the main disciplinary after the teachers. In the Euphemism-to-English Dictionary, &quot;Dean of Students&quot; is defined best as &quot;Dictator.&quot; *Vice Principal* - often an embittered older gentleman or lady deciding to choose a quieter job instead of retirement. They obviously didn't read the fine print. *Teachers* - these are, of course, the main body of the staff. Some are nice, some are strict, some bear a frightening resemblance to Salvatore Lo Piccolo, but most deserve your respect. After all, though outlawed, paddling can be &quot;overlooked&quot; from time to time, if youse know what I means. 2008-06-28T03:48:16Z http://ficlets.com/feed/story/31080 <p>I don&#8217;t know&#8230;my dean wasn&#8217;t too bad. My principal was kind of scary. Freaked him out once in the hall, which was incredible amounts of fun. I didn&#8217;t like the comment that teachers deserve your respect sharing the same sentence as the paddling idea. Most teachers deserve respect because most teachers dish it out. At least they did to me.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/31080?basename=74544 2008-06-28T03:48:16Z Storykeeper of Fae http://ficlets.com/authors/smile <p>hahahahah<br />i agree with fantasy.. :] true dattt.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/31080?basename=68678 2008-06-07T01:33:56Z LovingYourHeartbreak♥ http://ficlets.com/authors/xoxo <p>this just proves that every middle school is exactly the same. lol</p> <p>LoA</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/31080?basename=65669 2008-05-28T01:47:50Z Fantasy http://ficlets.com/authors/fantasy <p>i don&#8217;t remember having a vice principal <em>or</em> dean of students at my school&#8230;<br />(verrrry small school. less than 200 kids total.)</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/31080?basename=65373 2008-05-27T00:56:04Z invisibility_disability http://ficlets.com/authors/invisible_stories <p>Say hello to vice principal KONKLE !!!</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/31080?basename=65315 2008-05-26T20:25:12Z N555champ /\and/\ X-Ninja http://ficlets.com/authors/bigkittyproductions <p>Say hello to vice principal KONKLE !!!</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/31080?basename=65314 2008-05-26T20:25:10Z N555champ /\and/\ X-Ninja http://ficlets.com/authors/bigkittyproductions <p><em>“Dean of Students” is defined best as “Dictator.”</em><br />.<br />I didn&#8217;t have a Dean of Students until college, at which point, I can tell you, they become very nice individuals and exactly who you want on your side.

The principal appears to be amiable because he/she delegates the real discipline to his/her understudy. So, in reality if you think you hate your vice-principal&#8230; you really hate your principal&#8230; As that is who&#8217;s running the puppetry.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/31080?basename=63542 2008-05-20T03:51:06Z thebetweenspace http://ficlets.com/authors/thebetweenspace
