     Students attending Princess Margret Secondary School have been found wreaking havoc and mayhem at stores and businesses all around town. Everything was 20% off. Video footage shows packs of the students roaming the stores for hours on end. One student had a crazed, determined look upon them when apprehended at the local Wal-Mart. The officer noted that there was no stolen items, fraudulent identification or weapons found on the student; only a notebook and calculator. The authorities are still trying to piece together the jumble of trigonimics, algebra and calculus spewn throughout the book. When they asked what the student was doing with book they broke down in tears. "I was only trying to figure out how much 67.73$ was with 20% off and then add taxes" slurred the student. The officers were astounded when they came to realize that this student was indeed in math 12 pricniples, the highest in secondary school, and failed to solve such a simple problem. Profecessors had to be called in to make sense of the higher level math included in the book, for it had no use in everyday life. "The math being tought to these students has no use in thier everyday life", police concluded.
