Our health teacher thinks that the CDC is wrong and that organs are smaller than organelles, she also had rotting pigs in her cabinet for two months. In addition to this, she did unsanctioned blood testing on the students without proper safety precautions and without parental consent.
I saw someone who wrote this and I just wanted to add a few things. The Health teacher has a mental capacity of a 5-year-old and teaches a class like you're in elementary and not high school. She sounds and looks like Roz from Monsters Inc. Here is a link to a picture of Roz: https://www.google.com/search?q=agent+001+monsters+inc&safe=strict&rlz=1CABUJY_enUS864&tbm=isch&source=iu&ictx=1&fir=yYKmp0dfwUjoMM%253A%252Cnus9aZocaFlQxM%252C_&vet=1&usg=AI4_-kTfip3LG3EnVgidlR3j898rJ63Tsw&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjlzdqZjITnAhUOvJ4KHUVuDgAQ9QEwAXoECAUQGQ#imgrc=yYKmp0dfwUjoMM:
