- The school is amongst the oldest in the country and has been on its present site of 60 acres since 1926. We enroll; pupils from all over Zimbabwe and neighbouring countries and are heavily over-subscribed. We are the pre-eminent government school in the country and compete successfully with all schools in the country and regionally. The school attempts to produce a well-rounded individual where each of the boys participates in the Academic, Sporting and Cultural aspects on offer to them.
- Hundreds of thousands of Zimbabweans trained by the country’s most respected college hold lucrative, useful and satisfying jobs in Zimbabwe and throughout the rest of the world. Speciss College has over the last 45 years empowered Zimbabweans to help themselves. Today it can empower you too!
8. Dominican Convent
- is the oldest established school in Harare. It was founded in 1892 by Mother Patrick, an Irish nun, with 10 pupils. Originally the school was co-educational, but after ten years, a separate school, Hartmann House, was established for boys.
- A Private School situated in a pastoral setting near the town of Marondera in Zimbabwe. The College aims to provide an excellent all-round secondary education for girls and boys which assists them to develop their talents and prepares them to become socially well integrated individuals.
6. Harare International School
- includes Grades 9 through 12, with this year’s Seniors forming H.I.S.’s seventh graduating class. H.I.S. High School currently enrolls approximately 110 students in Grades 9-12 and provides a complete college preparatory program with a selection of electives and extra-curricular activities.

5. Peterhouse
- Founded in 1955 as an independent, Anglican boarding school for boys aged 12 to 18, it has now expanded to include two other schools as well: a co-educational preparatory school, Springvale House and Peterhouse Girls’ School. The schools are controlled by a Board of Governors who include: Dr N A F Williams (Patron), Mr J D Carter ( Chairman, ex Chairman of Barclays Bank, Zimbabwe) Senior Minister, the Hon Didymus Mutasa, and others. The schools occupy a 3 000 acre site straddling the main Harare-Mutare road, 85 kilometres south-east of Harare; 700 acres of this form our game park, Gosho Park.
- There are 480 boys (all boarders) at Peterhouse, and across the road we now have two associated schools: Springvale House is a 220 strong Preparatory School for boys and girls (weekly boarders and day scholars), Peterhouse Girls’ has 290 pupils (almost all of whom are boarders) Post-O Level girls come over to Peterhouse for lessons.
- The school is founded on Christian principles with a philosophy embodied in the lines from the school song “to be brave and strong and true and to fill with the world with love my whole life through”.
- We are proud of the atmosphere of caring and concern for others for which the school is known. It is hoped that each member of the school community will develop a sense of belonging while being accepted and valued as an individual.
3. Arundel Girls High
- a private Catholic boys school (Form One to Upper Six) based in Harare, Zimbabwe. It is arguably the oldest formal school established in Zimbabwe..The school is a boys school, whereby young adolescents enter-’Salvete’ and leave the college -’Valete’ as young men; Boys To Men. In the 1990’s, for Physic Science, young women of high intellect, from the Dominican Convent, were enrolled for the senior years (Lower Six & Upper Six). The school is presently located in the Capital City, Harare on Hartmann Hill, in the leafy suburb of Borrowdale
- This lead to the relocation of the school site from Bulawayo to Harare.Thus the beginning of Saint George’s College, affectionately known as (Saints).On the same site, a preparatory primary school was established called Hartmann House.This site is next to the official Zimbabwe State House, and the Official President’s House called Zimbabwe House.
- It is a very competitive School for one to enter,as an entrance examination has to be taken to enter Form One, and Lower Sixth Form.Students coming from Hartmann House are exempt from these exams as they automatically enter Saints.
1. St Johns College
- St John’s Educational Trust governs two schools; St John’s Preparatory School for Boys and St John’s College. Both are independent day schools and members of the Association of Trust Schools of Zimbabwe (ATS). The Headmasters are members of the Conference of Heads of Independent Schools of Zimbabwe (CHISZ).
- The College admits boys from the age of 12 to 18 and has a limited number of places for girls in the International Baccalaureate programme in the sixth form. While all Grade 7 pupils are required to sit the CHISZ Common Entrance Examination, most boys who elect to go on to the College are accepted. The continuity of ethos and St John’s spirit is recognized and fostered.

wow that is true
hillcrest is better than watershed why is it not there?
WHERE IS GIRLS’ COLLEGE AND FALCON COLLEGE YOUR RANKINGS ARE BIAS
Honestly I feel a school like specis should not be in that list it has no sporting facilities, many students repeat their o’levels. going to school is like going to a drink up, this list is silly and as for P.E. the only thing their good at is rugby…..And Watershed SUCKS
there is bias towards schools in Mashonaland. One wonders if this was reviewed by the relevant officials before being posted. If there were 100 schools to select from, Watershed would be number 100, so why is it hitting this list?
O.M.G what happened to GIRLS college AND CBC this is biased…
Wow i never actually thought st george would be beaten by st johns if they say so,fair enough.
This list is dominated by Mashonaland East and Harare Province. Speciss College should not be part of this list, it has no sporting facilities. Most of the students are repeats and over-age enough to be mothers and fathers! There’s Lomagundi College in Mashonaland Central, Petra, Christian Boys College, Falcon, girls College in Matabeleland. Standards for Watershed and Arundel Girls have so gone down and Prince Edward??? It should not even make the list except for music and rugby. Whoever did these ratings should re-do their research. The new ZRP Boarding school in Hatcliffe tops all these and other schools academically.
hillcrest is better than watershed.this list is biased.Gundi is not even there.P.E standards have gone down the drain now.Speciss should not even be there because they don’t do sport and most of the people there are repeating.whrz Girls’ College,CBC??
OMG….Oh my gosh… wow weres Gundi P.E doesnt even have a bus wit a T.V wats ur problem ur list lies big time look again and please Gundi shud be 5th or 4th
sYou do not know Zimbabwean Schools. You cant talk of schools without mentioning St. Ignatius College
the list doez not show truth huuuuuh,tz craaaaap,especialy pa PE,watershed,speciss dnt dserv to be ere.go n do ur homewrk properly
you people are mad i think Prince edward should be on top of saints.and for the record to all you hater the standards have not drpd its jus you and your gwash mentality
interesting but rubbish, pliz cbc, gc and fc stand out by far, saw in another list schools like st james and hamilton topped and only a couple of private schools like pe and st georges appeared. wonder what criteria is used because anyone who went to school in zim knows this aint totally true….
gundi is just as good it has improved its standards but no one wants to notice and i think it is sad !!! we should be in top 10 at least !!! i will send my kids there
who is speciss i havent a jumping jimmy !!! who that is!!! lomagundi should be top 5
Peter House, Falcon, Petra, Girls College, Plumtree, P.Edward, Chisipite, Lomagundi,Watershed, Harare International, Guinea fowl, Dominican Convent
wow!!!!!!.this is quite shocking.We all know Kutama college is way better than speciss,watershed etc.well known for producing the most influential people in zim e.g ,pres R.G Mugabe, just to mention a few.WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ON THAT LIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mcc shuld be number 1.We got the best things and pliz may that kutama boy be serious
St John’s college, Falcon, Peterhouse, St Georges,Arundel, Lomagundi,Chisipite, P.E, Hillcrest, Convent
SEC rules.but watrshd sucks and so does speciss and PE.gundi and falcon shud be there.
hahaha these claims that Hillcrest is better than Watershed are more than laughable ,Hillcrest is sooo gwash ,on what basis is Hillcrest better? on the other hand falcon is one of best schools in zim and i admit should have been there without a doubt.
JAAAAAAAAAKKKK!!!!!!! not Johns! saint georges is the best here ths list is biased nd racist…th HACK!!!!
i am sorry but how can youhave speciss, prince edward and watershed college as top 10 and leave out Lomagundi College..Gundi is by far better than the schools mentioned above…i reali think that these should be re-done…
if convent is there,,,then its cool…but yah pe, speciss and watershed SUCK!!!! gundi and falcon should hve been there.revise pliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiz
What happened to Lomagundi?
Ya chisi & specis were not sopposed 2 b there,??? why du pple & all these cments ht shed, it dsrve it ,its a gud scul tke it frm me as a form1 especially the food it’s great!!!!!!1
u knoe when u the bst .haters are too many yeah i admit falcon shld in list bt dont say pe z goin down its u whoz goin down
havin buses wth tvs does nt make u 2 be the 1 school .its all abt hw u do your ting
u say only pe z good at rugby only wat abt u wat are u gud at . the fact u are all talkin abt pe simply shows pe z the best
This list is very biased. I went to Santa (Dominics and Ignatius) and still think they are very good schools! As for PE and watershed!!! Falcon and Girls College should have been there
Please can you rank these schools according to November 2009 exam results.
St Dominics should be there,it is known tht santa girls are THE BEST..
I personally challenge all ex Churchill, PE, Eaglesvale, Watershed, Jameson, St Ignatius, St Dominics fellas to visit their old schools today before they get excited on this blogg… just my opinion!

A rubbish list compiled by a dunderhead who has no idea of Zim schools. I guess the trend was to pick from the former white schools in Mashonaland. However If the criteria takes into account academic excellence, its strange that schools like St. Ignatius College, of which none of these so called top schools would come anywhere near, does not make the list. The compilers have every right to compile their so called top schools list but please call it anything else other than “top 10 Zim secondary schools”.
were is bernard mizeki college and st phillips magwenya high, you are only ranking group a schools
i reckon as u ol know falcon shud b at the top but all these others such as PE suck and dont deserve to be in the rankings the people ranking must be more serious!!!!!!

JOHNS IZ DEFINETELY THE BEST SCHOOL IN ZIM BY FAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! RAMS 4 EVA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SPECISSSS….EISH this idiot is crazy…this list is based on which school has the nicest buses and facilities,none,not even one of these schools deserve to be therew,,,,full of overprivileged trustfund idiots

Speciss??????? Mpopoma LOL. The p.e dh smells, th supper is cookd in da morning. As 4 watershed lts get real, they chwp, cnt soash English. and fluffy thats top ten gwash skuls. CBC, Gundi, Budgey, GC should b there. St Johns deserves it
i think Christian brothers college should be there in the top 10 also!
Haha don’t make me laugh. You cant tell anyone nothing your buildings look like flippin Rhodesia can’t you develop your infrastructure? Oh wait your school is broke, you cant even afford hockey fields thats why you practice at B.A.C Sports Club, shut up! That reminds me the day i slept at G.C the hostel smelt like piss what’s with that and you call yourselves ladies it’s okay i didn’t mean to expose you all but lets face the facts your school is crap well done for Golden Girls though. Lomagundi you don’t even have morals you just need jesus you should just stop hating the best schools are not neccesarily the best atheletes but it’s academics that counts, what do you think counts at university? I wonder what your A’Level and O’Level pass rate is, 20% hmm…? well i dont care because i got more brain than all of you combined! Hillcrest don’t even go there…. NO commenta you people are equally sad like G.C and Gundi- Good day illiterate fools
this list is complete crap as far as I’m concerned.the truth is it has a bias,and is skewered towards private school or as they’d call themselves “A schools”.I went to Arundel and i can tell u that convent beat them by a light year.heck Bonda is probably beta. This list is not representative of all schools coz these r only Mashonaland schools.Plus its made on the assumption that all gvrnment schools suck simply bcoz they aren’t getting the fundin that they shud from the gvrnment.they on the other hand can charge RIDICULOUS prices from parents.Who ever heard of fees costing two airplane tickets,TWO AIRPLANE TICKETS!return tickets for that fact.who ever put this list up must take its down its pathetic.summ of it is true yet its SO wrong as well.Where is Fletcher,Petra ,Falcon,St augustines,St Ignatius.As far as i’m concerned let them keep lyin to themselves that these r the best school.its them that lose at the end of the day.
Convent is not supposed to be in eighth position-it’s a very good school.Speciss is not supposed to be on this list of rankings.There are better schools out there that should have made this list of top ten schools,and Speciss college is not one of them!Dominican Convent could have been ranked better:eighth position is not good enough.
I think Chisi needs 2 be first then Convent then Arundel. Johns need 2 be forth. the peope who wrote this list suck. Speciss shud not be on this list.
well watershed should not be there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!hillcrest is way better…secondly u left out the heritage school!!!!have u been there???just because its a newly developed school doesnt mean it doesnt have good education…..thirdly wat happend to girls college bulawayo????that is a very good school u left out..i think u need to redo this list!!!honestly how can u put specis college????do u know what happens there???
PE remains a good school, be realistic.education is not all about academics but includes sport and cultural clubs and everything that molds a person into a good human being.Arundel, Chisi and Convent are probally the best……………….Speciss is not a school but an academic social club
mn tage should be there i dnt knw y thy hate it so much but here is my top 5:
5)- st john’s college
4)-st george’ s college
3)-peterhouse college
2)-the heritage school
1)-falcon college ya’ll
it dznt matter what all u haters out there think .P.E.S we the best how can someone even try to compare us with Watershed,have you ever seen the place before ….?!!

halo where is Eaglesvale .I think its the best school they have buses which take your child home and bring him or her to school okay fine one might say the school looks gwash I agree with you but its the environment its an industrial place .WHO EVER MADE THIS LIST WAS DISSING EAGLESVALE HOW CAN WATERSHED BEAT US PLIZ GET A LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think most of you are voting for other schools like st Johns just because they have whites so what this is ZAMBABWE not USA you don’t obviously except to find more whites this days in which day and time are you living in.You just do not like eaglesvale because of the cults thing of cause it happened but 56people did not transfer you guys should first get you points straight before you blaber things out.Domunican convernt does not even have enough facilities and then you say its one of the best schools.Eaglesvale has 12buses and they are still moving ain’t they although they are old how many buses does DC have speciss have how about the famous”st johns”who ever made this list should stop dreaming and get real.so I suggest you stop saying this rubbish pliz..

Ok so Saints, Arundel and DC deserve to grace the list, but all of these other xools are just for pretentious bastards who dont give a f**k about xool(mind the language)..Whoever made this list is dizzy.I would think a few more government xools would be in there,St Ignatius in particular considering its ranked first academically. P.E, Shed, Speciss must have paid someone to appear on the list.

Hell no!!! where is falcon , john tallach, plumtree, cbc. this list is biased .i doubt whether the reseacher really bothered him/her self with any schools in matabeleland. mthwakazi 4 lfye
I find this to be really funny. You are all indoctrinated. You think your school is the best just because you liked it. Most of you have not even spent more than two minutes to think about what a good school is. Judging from the spelling on this post I should not be surprised. Some posts campaign against your school. There is little class or wit in these posts.
Just because you had a few prominent school leavers does not make a school good. If your school consistently produces prominent leavers well good, but that can simply mean your school was very selective.
If we start talking academics, Sports, drama, arts, culture, publicity, international exposure well, now we start to talk good schools. Some of the schools that people are going on about are very much single focus school. To put it in simple English, that means schools which only do one thing well (like academics).
I do agree that this list is biased. Possibly because the schools that are not on the list do not take the time and effort to be ranked.
Seriously, let us have some more serious discussion not “my school is the best”
PRINCE EDWARD !!!!!! IS THE DOPEST SKWA EVA ….ask the qeen of england she paid us a visit ….she luvs us
I think M C C is the best coz they habe bot 5 buses just like the city link ones saints, johns, pe,g c all suck
zoom zoom evyeryone woould say I LIKE IF WE WERE WHO KNOWS SHE THIS SCHOOL SUCKS AND THATS TRUE PE YOU SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU ACTUALLY THINK THAT SPECIS WOULD QUALIFY ON THAT LIST
The queen of England also visited Mbare
How come these didn’t make the list,
Gokomere
Kutama
Goromonzi
St Ignatius
St Augustines
Kind of hard to fathom how one can talk of excellence without including these heavyweights.
people can not expect bulawayo schools to be at the top harare schools are just good.
haters say p.e aint gt brains bt it hz the best Quiz team in Zim,the best Chess club in Zim so wht the f*** re haters tlkng abt.Talkng abt sports nd cultural we top the list any1 who oposes nids a brain chek nd an operation ow nd nids 2 go 2 the new start centre
Well spoken ‘Dragon’ i thnk tht waz e most sensible n accurate post on ths site. i nva knew zimbabweanz cd b so ignorant abt our own sklz…

Speciss?Now thats a joke.As for shed its one of the most EXPENSIVE schools in the country–mainly for rich black kids.The academics are great,you will get a good education.they also have an agric diploma where they send the retarded folk who cant handle A level but are good at sport.They suck at sport though,and everything else is CRAP.The food is CRAP but the facilities are quite good,very HIGH PASS RATES though…cant say the same for PE.
zoom u got brains,pinky get a lfe and take 5 wht the f*** is yo xul gud at?
?Dr kay,for starters,good grades.Hundred percent pass rate at Alevel.Doubt if most kids at PE can count up to a hundred,let alone do A levels,since most of you are still busy repeating form1.Start by cleaning up your disgusting toilets and getting off the streets before posting crap.
falcon college is by far the best school in zim and all zimbabweans know that for a fact
this list is actually quite disturbing if u look in recent times certainly schools like saints johns arundel and falcon and hous hav maintained high standards bt we tend to forget tht ther r schools like gateway that have also emerged and offer high quality education and infrastructure as well as placing emphasis on other cultural and sporting activities which to me is essential if u r to b considerd a top class school if sum of u ignorant pple are basin this list on th amount of fees u pay then clearly a school like gateway would be on top 4 ur infomation coz they pay twice th amount a skul like eaglesvale pays nd bliev me im nt jus tokin crap itz a fact
PE rules shud be in top 2 its a great xkwa n you all r hating we girls luv pe 4 lyf. Saints no HOMO

zoom zoom i feel sorry for you.Take a look at your scol I even doubt if you have bus not buses take not of that when you came to our school for a rugby match we had to give u buses and to answer ur question we are good at academics I actually think the person who wrote this list just put u there just because he or she felt sorry for you because someone in their right senses will never do this.okay now lets be practical you are only good at rugby and maybe things lyke drama and so on hw about hockey I doubt if you even know what that is and swimming, ha? my point is your school is GWASH you have to learn to live with that, to have hot guys at your school does not mean you are all that .i am actually amazed that you even know hw to use the net

Pe pliz dnt worry bou em haters.u stl r e best no matter wt.PE FOREVER!!!luv u guys.H-town’s best.PE,SAINTS,JOHNS c’mon guys we have e hottest dudes in Harare.
if we are talking in terms of sports maybe ill agree, but in academics we cant compare those harare mashonaland schools to manicaland giants; the likes of st Augustines (Tsambe), Marist brothers, st Faith or even Bonda. what is specis, pe or churchill? soccer/rugby institutions or what?

you must be crazy…..Hillcrest is one on the ugliest schools in zimbabbwe, poor hostels, poor food, evrythng about it is shit, so dnt say its better than watershed. watershed desreves to be there
How are all these ranked please,what criteria was used to do this. Why is Speciss here?
Zimbabweans,you claim to be educated and articulate but this thread is proving otherwise!Some of you are devastatingly ignorant.Anyhow,PE and speciss have excellent TUCKSHOPS..cant say much else about those schools because those schools are terrible and they suck.Go back to (primary?) school,learn how to spell and get some class.dang!!!
WHOEVA WROTE THEW LIST IS INSANE, THE BELOW XULS ROCK!!!!!!!!!!! ACADEMIC WISE
Kutama
St Ignatius
St Augustines
Gokomere
Mst of da xuls de r whack esp speciss,wat does P.E no bout being a G xul only in sports.thr r beta xuls out de e.g monte casino @ ZRP hi if we wer 2 base on results
why all this insault to gc kutama falcon prince edward rubbish all those pips who wrote pe call me we need to take u tto the doctors may be u have gone mad
i think santa shud be part of the list;its actually one of the best esp when it comes to academics;wn ilook at competition;i see 2 competitors;st dominics chishawasha and others
No Way Where Falcon College and CBC this list is rubbish , what the Hell??????………….Is this only Zimbabwe high Schools Cause Falcon should Be on there ………..
why the cancelling on Watershed, don’t listen to what the other people are saying they don’t learn there. 4 us who we know wat we’re talking about shed iz an excellent maybe right now you can’t c it but later you. I TOLD YOU……
Yes as far as I know watershed is a gud xul.also peterhouse,st johns and convent.p.e. wel its ok nd gateway 2.Neva heard of specis topping in nythng nd no wer is falcon on ds list?
Nonesense, this is a bias ranking sponsored by imperialists. Are you so tribalistic that you forget Falcon and CBC.
FuCk P.E
These schools have very high standards and foster discipline, responsibility, team work and other qualities in their students but in terms of academic results no ways are they the best unless if you are only considering Cambridge students. I will put Marist Nyanga, St Ignatious, St Augustines, Bonda, Kutama, St Faith Rusape, St Dominics, Kriste Mambo in the TOP 10.These are the consistent and perennial high flyers for Zimsec exams.
damn thats y PE is great they got lot of haters shizzz
this list is bad
you know so hard bad
1.st georges
2.st johns
3.watershed
4.falcon
5.dominican
6.kutama
7.hillcrest
8.lomagundi
9.genesis college
10.eaglesvale
most of the people commenting on this list are actually really stupid… no hating or anything, but if all you people from these random schools recall, you all had no teachers for a while, which makes your school suck for not being able to retain teachers, if your schools are soooo good (emphasis on good) why was there an attempted mass exodus from your schools by those that could afford, into the private school system??? and even having the audacity to mention “zimsec top flyers,” when you know very well the amount of scandal surrounding the board, the inconsistencies and the inability to deliver when they are required to. You seriously need to check your facts before you go on ranting and raving about nothing. Most private schools write zimsec o’level in form 3 and get a 100% pass rate! you are only very familiar with zimsec rankings because no one bothers to publish cambridge rankings in the newspapers! did you know that arundel is the highest ranking african school on the cambridge exam board, and zimbabwean schools rank very highly on that international board. just because the schools are not bothered with zimsec does not make your schools any better than ours. all they are doing, is striving for excellence and broadening opportunities.
speciss does not belong!!!!!!!!!!!1
P.s. get over it…!!!
Oh and @pinky
girl what the fuck you are freaking comparing schools based on the number of buses they have…
LMFAO
wake up call sweeie-pie vale hasn’t been in the running for anything in a very long while!!!
the buses you so proudly speak of are always dying in the middle of the road and causing unbearable congestion during peak hours, its about time they got new ones!!! convent may not have the on campus facilities readily available, but the facilities are provided and they always woop your asses anyway that why you are so bitter.
oh and another thing they don’t need so many buses because the school is not situated in the middle of industry/high density suburbs in the middle of nowhere. all the they need is one dope marcopole complete with dvd and fitted tv’s a couple of smaller buses and several mini-vans (makombi- incase you didn’t know what mini-vans are!!!)
face it vale sucks at everything!!! even simple location
i think the list is all fine
list biased
Dominican Convent BYO
i think you mother fuckers should consider midlands Christian collage
Bull shint .Mpopoma The High is The best. Period
honestley dnt be jeals coz m.c.c rules red n blue dats how we eagles roll!! fuck p.e and all em lame sxuls ayt!!
