I was one of the seniors that graduated at the MCCTC of 2007. I think to two girls should be put in jail for what they have done. We all had to go to other school that didn't feel right at all. We all sit down and said that we needed our school back. It wasn't home to us. I realy feel bad for the teacher because she is very nice to everyone the was at the school. She trusted her seniors to act right not like little kids. But I think that all change after what happen. After what happen I think that everyone knows not to play with fire at school or to have anything of that kind of thing. I was on a overnight trip when that all happen. We got a call about that school and we were all crying. We could not believe on what happen. I wish the all the stuff the best of luck through out the years to come. I hope that this will never happen again.
