Students from a high school in Florida have documented conditions that you would expect from a third-world country. The building is nothing short of a lawsuit waiting to happen.

From The Daily Mail:

High school is a tough time for any teenager, but the students at Miami Sunset Senior High School seem to have it a little harder.

Photos from inside the school have surfaced on social media showing horrifying conditions, from a moldy carton of fruit punch, to brown tap water and cockroaches on the walls and the food.

‘When I’m in school I expect to be taken care of,’ former student Angie Garcia, who said she left because of the state of the school, told NBC MIami.

‘I expect to be protected by the staff and by the faculty and they did none of that.

‘I’m not sure what their interests are, but it’s certainly not us.’

‘It was just deplorable.’

The disturbing photos quickly went viral and have outraged many, especially parents.

Darlene Pratt told WSVN she is worried about her child’s health and safety.

‘I’m disgusted,’ she told the network.

‘Health hazards, safety hazards, it’s a huge concern and seeing the pictures with the mold, and knowing that that is what my child is being served for lunch.

‘It’s very, very, very disturbing.’

The photos have forced the local school district to answer questions about cleanliness.

Barbara Mendizabal, Sunset’s regional superintendent at Miami-Dade County Schools, said it was a back-to-school issue and that the facility is normally not in such a state.

‘What we can say also is that prior to winter break, the building was not cleaned properly,’ she said.
