CriticalExposure > DIRTY BATHROOMS
Ruben (12th Grade), Edison H.S. – Motivation Academy, Philadelphia
    
“The boys’ bathroom is always dirty, we never have hand soap or toilet paper, the hand dryer doesn’t work, there are missing doors on the stalls, the toilets are always clogged, and there’s graffiti all over the place.”
CriticalExposure > CEILING
Carmen (12th Grade), Edison H.S. – Business Academy, Philadelphia

“The ceiling across from my locker is falling apart [and] leaking.  This is a safety issue.  The ceiling is like this all over the school.”  
Nikole Browning describes a similar ceiling at Mansion H.S.: “The mold on the ceilings can make students sick, not to mention it’s very gross looking.”

Christina (10th Grade), Olney West H.S., Philadelphia

“Ms. Driggin [or, as students call her, “Ms. Drigg igg igg igg iggin”] is my biology teacher.  She is a driven teacher that is wonderful and kind. But due to the budget cuts, she has been force-transferred and won’t be at Olney [H.S.] next year.”

CriticalExposure > YOUTH UNITED 4 CHANGE
Odessa (10th Grade), Strawberry Mansion H.S., Philadelphia
   
“The story that I am trying to tell is that these are the things we do outside of school, which is stand up for what we believe.  It starts with the youth.”
CriticalExposure > CLASSROOM
Gary (12th Grade), Masterman H.S., Philadelphia
    
“A classroom with exposed, noisy pipes overhead.”
CriticalExposure > THE MEMORIAL
Carmen (12th Grade), Edison H.S. - Business Academy, Philadelphia

“I think the most important thing in our school is the memorial for all the Edison students who died in the Vietnam War.  Edison has the most students who died in the war of any high school in the country, which is why we want as many college recruiters as there are military.”
CriticalExposure > THE VIEW OUT OF A FILTHY CLASSROOM
Gary (12th Grade), Masterman H.S., Philadelphia
CriticalExposure > “DANCE CLASS,” YEAH!
William (12th Grade), Kensington H.S. – Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA), Philadelphia

“This is where our fancy footwork is supposed to be happening, but yeah, we also have our assemblies in here, too.  I don’t think it’s fair.  If there’s an assembly going on, [we] lose a lesson for the day.”
