I looked at similar questions and I followed the syntax for writing queries for inserting into a database but I keep getting this exception. I'm clearly not seeing something. It stops running at " insertStatement.setInt(1, schoolID);" . I read that this means that the query is not in its proper syntax. Please show me where I went wrong. I can't see it at all.
