Barney,
When I went to school at Maryville a decade ago there was a lot of snobs there. I think some of you older folks on the T wouldn't even recognize it if you went there today.
I knew that the first day I stepped foot in the place when the principal heard I was from the county schools and he gave me a lecture about how "you have to act like somebody if you go to Maryville City Schools." I was a straight A student and never got in trouble. Needless to say, it left a bad taste in me and my mom's mouths and I didn't stay there very long.
