Qducate · BAB archive
Searchable historical text from the defunct badapplebullies.com (Wayback Machine). Cleaned for reading, organised by jurisdiction. Cards show word count and estimated reading time (~200 words/min). Open a story and use Listen for browser read-aloud where supported.
Full-text + tags, in your browser (Qortal-safe).
Generated from structured classification of archive text. Counters count unique teacher stories and discrete incidents, not hub pages or pure research guides. Classification is automated keyword analysis plus manual overrides; it is not a legal finding.
This archive preserves historical reporting, personal accounts and commentary from the former Bad Apple Bullies website. Inclusion or classification does not establish that every allegation is correct. Readers should consult original decisions, official records and contemporary reporting where available.
