Throughout the year, Mrs. Ostrom has shown a pattern of disregard for her student's opinions from not opening tests, to refusing to tell Annabelle how much time was on the test moments before opening it. Things like this make students of the Todd Allen Phillps Center of Medical Sciences feel weaker and less able to make changes in their life. Memories like this have been proven to influence decisions as an adult (Horgan et. al) and as future doctors, this can influence the life of not only ourselves but our patients as well. One of the most heinous occurrences of Mrs. Ostrom's tyranny was shown on 6/10/22 when she overruled the class-voted placement of my group's poster on the wall to another group. Please sign this petition so we can take down the poster and replace it with the correct one that we know we all want (my group's). Thank you for your consideration
