Bottom line, this is the wrong way to go about getting constructive change. Frankly, it just won't work. You've had some great suggestions from some thoughtful members of this list who otherwise are not obligated to help you in any way, if not for the fact that you use a particular OS. I think you just ran into a nice group of people. :-) Talk to your parents, talk to the school executive, use the channels you have. You might hate that approach, but it's actually the best way.
