At NYU we used to get an awesome cable channel called SCOLA.  It's a sort
of "International Channel" with news from different countries in different
languages.  Kind of what NPR's World Radio Network service does -- but on
TV.

Most kids in NYC would give their right eye for a school like that.  Down
here, there's kids going to school in broom closets because the regular
classrooms are so overcrowded.  There's no more play-yards in a lot
buildings because all that space has been taken over by these tin shacks
providing "temporary" clasroom space (some of these things are over 10-20
years old).

Count your blessings, kid.
