Is your school famous?

Mine is.
Well at least the football team of my school is.
They have made National Headlines and been in commercials.
Like this Gatorade Commercial

Sort of. The past two years our school made some minor headlines when kids kept pulling the fire alarms at our school and set a fire in the boy's bathroom. Our principal was suspended because he turned off communication with the fire department to avoid fines, but it turned out he almost was charged for doing that and cost the district $10,000. FOX and CBS came all the way from New York with news trucks just to get the story. I don't see what the point was. It happens in almost any school around the country. D:
