Prop R -- "Let's Build a Greenhouse"

SAINT CHARLES, MO -- Orchard Farm School District recently had its no-tax-increase bond issue approved, Proposition R. The Proposition asks for funding for the most important projects that Orchard Farm NEEDS, including a brand new greenhouse.

The need for a greenhouse is obvious. Since the beginning of time, Orchard Farm has felt one absence in its curriculum: We have math, science, English, history, art, choir... Of course, we are missing the one other curriculum area: Greenhouse. 

"I-I don't think we need a greenhouse," some kid we interviewed said. "I think we need a theater." 

HA! What is a theater? I'm not sure. Clearly, we need a greenhouse. 

"I don't want to go into STEM," another student said. "I want to go into [Greenhouse]*."

Another plus of Prop R: the bathrooms are being updated! 

"I hope they put real locks on the stall doors in the girl's bathroom by the cafeteria," an anonymous member of the OFHS community said. "It's really awkward, especially when you're changing into your [Greenhouse]* costume during [Greenhouse]* practice, because we don't have an actual Green Room**."

*This quote has been slightly edited.
**Green Room is referring to a Greenhouse Room, not a "Green Room" as used in a "theater".

Golf Team Takes Over School In Surprising Turn of Events After Freshman/Sophomore Service Trip Canceled

SAINT CHARLES, MO -- Fear and panic in Orchard Farm High School this morning as the freshman and sophomore class' planned community service field trip was canceled due to inclement weather conditions. Upon the release of this decision from administration, students panicked, lost, confused as to what exactly they were meant to be doing today. In the midst of the uproar from students and teachers all shouting the same question, "Why did we plan this trip if we already knew the weather was going to be bad?" An unlikely dictator has stepped forward -- the Orchard Farm High School golf team. That's right, folks. The golf team has taken control of the school. After forcing Dr. Jones out of his seat as principal, we are now being led by Mr. B. Arnette and his group of cronies, ruling the school with an 8 iron golf club (or a 9, depending on how angry you make them). Bathroom vapers beware today as, reportedly, the team has occupied the bathrooms as well. Any vapers cau...

High School Hosts Quiz Bowl Tournament, Visitors "Disappointed" and "Confused"

SAINT CHARLES, MO -- Orchard Farms High hosted a Quiz Bowl tournament Tuesday evening, inviting guests from across the St. Louis and St. Charles areas to join in on two rounds of answering obscure questions that humans were never meant to know the answers to. One student reports, "It's like Jeopardy, but without all the good parts." Upon entering the building, several of the teams reported being "disappointed" and "confused" by the lack of stairwells and unnecessarily long hallways. "I don't know what to do without stairs. It's an essential part of my life." At the mention of this, an OF team member pointed out that we do have three sets of stairs, but they're all on the stage. Upon noticing that the stage is, for some reason, in the middle of the cafeteria, an outsider remarked, "Wow, they can eat lunch and watch a performance!" Several OF Quiz Bowl members shook their heads solemnly. They don't know. They nev...

A New Record: OFHS Relationship Lasts For 6 Minutes

SAINT CHARLES, MO -- Beating the last school record of five minutes, fifty-two seconds by an eight-second margin, two students have defied the odds and shown us that love is stronger than anything today when they kept their relationship together for an astonishing six minutes. Students witnessing the event could hardly believe it. "They walked down the whole hallway holding hands -- and then they turned around and did it again. People were stopping smack-dab in the middle of the hall just to witness it. It was insane." Other astonishing details include that the two actually utilized a brand new, revolutionary relationship-lengthening strategy called communication. "Your mom has a weird wart on her nose," one said, to which the other responded, "You're right. I'll take her to the wart doctor tomorrow." Within a minute, the entire conflict was resolved (this was a huge surprise, given the amount of relationships ended this year alone over nose wa...
