Has anyone famous or well-known visit your school before?
Like, locally or world-wide known?
Johnny Damon came to my school in 6th grade cause this kid won this contest thing at JC penney or something.
And this weatherman, Mike Wankum (sp?) came to our school last year. I just saw a commercial on him on our local news channel and it inspired me to create this ropic
Ok, has anyone been to your school?

hmm... Usher supposedly came to my middle school because our old principal used to be his teacher a long time ago in atlanta. in elementary school, Kenan+Kel and Amanda Bynes from All That came by, and a little after that, Tiger Woods stopped by for a bit. i think some guy from American Idol [EJ? Ejay? idk.] came by one day to our chorus class while i was out. apparently his father is a policeman in the area and he and my teacher knew each other, so yeah.
i think that's it. no famous people came by my high school though.

My school is too stupid to let a celebrity come to our school.

My friend won a contest to let this one guy come (i forgot who), and the principal wouldnt let him come.

This model visited our school. She was on "American's top model" and came to our school because it seems that she was related to one of the 4th grade teachers. So everybody in the school had to listen to her talk about life, and reaching your goal and junk like that. She's pretty.

And an author and another who aren't famous. 2 authors, one model. yeah.. that's it.
ooh! and this singer.. i dont know if she's famous or not but her name was "zeus" and she came to sing as a concert.

oooh George Bush came to my school and spoke to the juniors and seniors but the freshmen and sophs. had to watch it over the tv system thing cause the auditorium doesn't have that much space. i think i was a sophomore or freshman. when he told us this website to go to, he was like dubya dubya dubya blahblahblah..haha it was hilarious. he came to our school after 9/11 cause our school's mascot is the patriots.

Hayden Panettiere goes to our school. I'm sure you've seen her in Remember the Titans, Tiger Cruise, Kingdom Hearts, Joe Somebody, etc.
She's a b*tch though. In middle school, I, jokingly, printed out a picture of her online and asked for her autograph; she gave me this most disgusting look ever and told the teacher on me.
Oh well.

Pft. As if anyone wants to come to Pittsburgh. The only celebrity that might come would be Christina Aguilera because she grew up here. Like Yemi, I'd skip school not only because of the chaos but because of the celebrity.
