That is a really crappy way to design a network, having multiple schools all on the same network like that... are the schools connected together or something?

yes, the schools are connected to each other. I don't know why, but they are.

Lots of schools are set up that way. One domain and multiple subnets. Everything managed from a central location. I sometimes need to set a vpn up from an office in a school, back to our vpn concentrator downtown. Often I find things like daisy chains of subnets connected from school to school with wireless bridges. Makes for some real slow access when a whole county school system ends up passing across one wireless link. I also find a lot of Novel networks and even some that run on Apple. One school system I was working on had a 20 year old Sun setup.

Don't jump down stairs, even if they have a landing half-way down.

Nope, falling wasn't the problem. Hitting my head on the overhang was. Ouch.

Well, not computer related, but I almost shot myself in the foot once. Severely underestimated the force needed to keep the hammer from falling
