things and stuff ( i dont know what the name of this is)
East James High is a normal high school in some aspects. it has a cafeteria, and a library, and like all high schools it has classrooms. but East James High is not a normal high school.

Jamestown has two high schools. Jamestown high  and East James High (the one we are talking about)
Jamestown high is a normal high school ; normal classes ; normal teachers ; normal subjects
But East James is a different story
East James High is a school based on students interests and capabilities (good idea huh)
each student that wants to apply for East James tells thier interests and joys. they then must do a live introduction and audition.

more ideas

 i don't even know what to call this
- "a war broke out and life is starting to get tough. School is horrible, people are panicking, parents are over protectively sheltering their kids. wow, the time of my life."
- soon another country will attack but on us and sven's life will become even harder, him and his misfit pack of geeks, nerds, and just outcasts are trying to survive  

Ronnie and Irene (screenplay/script)
- ronnie is vacationing in san fransisco with her family
- they decide to go see the golden gate bridge
- ontop of the hill overlooking the golden gate there is a old abandoned millitary camp where an old nuclear battery is
-while ronnie's family is talking pictures of the bridge she is videoing the camp
-after some wlking around a  dart of some kind hits ronnie causing her to fall
-when she wakes up its night and she is locked in one of the cells at the camp
- her head hurts and she is confused
-there are lights outside and she can hear people
- she tries to look out but cant see anything
- she searches for the camara , puts it through the bars and snaps a picture
- 'clever idea'  ...

screenplay ideas

1) evil high school: James has been sent to a boarding school while his parents finish moving. but what they didn't know when they enrolled him was that it is a high school for the wicked, the cruel, and the evil. there are different social groups in the school. but unlike most boarding schools you pick a group and you not only hang out with them , but live and dine with them. there are __ groups in this school... the masterminds/the hive mind: they're the nerds.... they are quite creepy actually, they all look the same and are always trying to take over the world, the "vampires": twihards... just twihards... they're deranged, the cult: they are the equivalent to the geeks at a regular school, the jocks (meatheads as the cult calls them) they are what they are... man power,the sirens... who are the popular girls... total snobs, and then you have the werewolves and their not knock-offs they are legit werewolves... they are also the closest thing the cult has to friends outside the cult. Anyway, James has moved to Gordon's high school for evil teens. and of course he doesn't fit in. so the cult ,basically every misfit in the school, takes him in.
the cult is made of five members Llewellyn, Rudy, Azazel, Lucy, and now James.
Rudy is a total flirt. he has red long-spiked hair. he often wears platform boots and black jeans. and of course he is very flirty. very flirty. and very sarcastic (secretly a farmiliar)
Llewellyn is also sarcastic but a little more hyper than Rudy. she ofter wears black, blue, and grey clothes. she has short one sided hair. (she secretly likes cute stuff)
Azazel  tall and mysterious. no one knows where he is from and doesn't want to know. though he isn't very social he can be quiet talkative in certain situations.
Lucy is the most "normal" one (note the quotations) to non evil people she would seem like a slightly strange stranger. but if you're her friend you know different. Lucy is short for Lucifer. yeah, Lucifer. no one not even the cult would even dare go in her closet. that stuffs scary.
 James is a normal kid. he has brown hair and a regular appearance. he is smart but, he is just average.
So, in all we have a punk, hyper fanatic, a mysterious villain, a satanist, and a normal kid.

 the school rules
1) no bright colors
2) no fight in the hall if needed pleases do it outside so we can watch
3) no pets (farmiliars are acceptations)
4) you must be wearing clothes
5) no intimate contact in the bathroom
6) no good deeds (helping with pranks are accepted
7)

Teachers
__________- pe teacher; perv; long black hair that is graying; has a scar across his face/nose; pitiful criminal; friends with the headmaster. 
 ___________- science teacher; mad scientist ; long blond hair. when aggravated his voice goes up in pitch;
___________- literature teacher; very harsh ; wolf like; hates twilight; dorm patrol; and is secretly in a relationship with the headmaster.
___________- drama teacher; male but has a girlish voice and physquic the students call him a girl; and like his job says he is a drama queen; purple hair
___________-  math teacher; "normal" teacher; he's a killer essentially; though he is a wackjob he one of the easiest people to talk to if you aren't evil.
____________- the lunch man;  he has some serious side-burn game; he is very mellow;
___________- the office lady; slacks off; doesn't care; friends with the drama teacher
__________-

 ......... to be coninued
