What people are saying

by a student
Saturday, March 14, 2020

I mean, the school was okay. Some teachers were reasonable, some were rude, and some were too nice. I was a pretty good student, so my grades weren't bad. However, some of the school had horrible grades. I met a kid who had about 4
Ds, but maybe there was something at home, so I will give them the benefit of the doubt. But some of them were really mean. Some kids bullied others because of their clothing, their hair(cut), height, and more. There was plenty of drama, but everyone forgot about me, so I never got into any drama, except for the time there were rumours about me. I won't get into detail about what it was about, but that was my one bit of popularity. But if I had the chance to go to a different school, I would probably take it. Close Quote
