The War Between The Pitiful Teachers And The Splendid Kids / int_1ef7232d	type	Wild Child
The War Between The Pitiful Teachers And The Splendid Kids / int_1ef7232d	comment	Wild Child: Big Alice Eyesore is raised by hyenas after her child psychologist parents forget/abandon her at a wild animal park and decide that the hyenas are better equipped to deal with Alice and her all-canine teeth. Her parents eventually return for her when she's about 11 or 13, but after learning that child psychology doesn't work on hyenas they abandon her for good at the horrible school where the story takes place. By the end of the book, Alice has been brought back from the dead (cryogenically frozen/coma?) and returned to her hyena family. She is the only kid who hasn't been forcibly aged or driven underground. She achieves a symbolic victory by climbing the highest tree in the park and declaring herself leader of her pack.

The War Between The Pitiful Teachers And The Splendid Kids / int_297ab1b9	type	Parental Abandonment
The War Between The Pitiful Teachers And The Splendid Kids / int_297ab1b9	comment	Parental Abandonment: Parents are not mentioned very much, seeing as the characters are in a prison-like school for bad teachers and smartasses. The lone exception is Big Alice Eyesore, who was so wild as an infant (her teeth came in early; they were all canines) that her child psychologist parents left her in a wild animal park where she was raised by hyenas. They came back for her when she was an adolescent, but after learning that child psychology doesn't work on hyenas they abandoned her for good.

The War Between The Pitiful Teachers And The Splendid Kids / int_351e0e53	comment	Dean Bitterman: Every single adult (with three exceptions) hates their students, which is unsurprising given they all reside in a prison school for horrible teachers and smartass kids. They win (!), but not completely.

The War Between The Pitiful Teachers And The Splendid Kids / int_963e36bd	comment	Boarding School of Horrors: The horribly built school is not only a dumping ground for "bad" students (the main POV character is actually very intelligent but infuriated his teacher by making up words ("inkwart- that blister that develops when you write too many stupid English assignments") and sticking to them; another is a very smart Cloud Cuckoo Lander; another was raised by hyenas) but also for bad teachers like the self-absorbed art teacher who jousted as The Rococo Knight.
