What is it like being an alumni of a school that’s underfunded or neglected? Even if the school is “good” (as in well funded or private), does the learning environment reflect that? Also, the dark side of American schools (shootings) dampens peace of mind for parents since at any given moment some gun wielding individual can storm in murdering those inside (students, teachers, custodians, etc.)


I feel like nobody in American schools care about learning except for Asian Americans… which is probably because of strict parenting lol.
I know one Cantonese speaker that got very Americanized (had an English nickname on top of a Pinyin birth name) and didn’t about about grades very much either.
Like the classroom is just chaos…
Like I often just hated going there…
Especially when we moved to Philly, these schools dropped from like a 8/10 to like 1/10 rating
Bullying, casual racism, constant fighting in hallways, like every day, teacher be trying to teach then kids be yelling and its like a riot and so everyone end up having to deal with consequences, and also authoritarian staff… felt like a prison…
Highschool literally had airport style security lmfao
Horrible…
Why is probably why houses here are so cheap…
Probably could learn more from the internet too
Also the “school shooter” thing is statistically not gonna happen to you… you’re much more likely to get buillied and possibly get dragged into a fight and that school bullying issue is probably is much bigger thing to worry about…
Replace the “school shooting” with the constant fear of getting beaten up in school…
and also the casual racism against Asian Americans…
Also funny thing: High school required 2 years of language class. At first I got put into the spanish class… it was fucking hell… kids literally be fighting with the teacher… so I transferred from the spanish language class to a Chinese language class and the behavior is like 99% better… lmfao (Hint: cuz half of the class is like ethnic Chinese)
