I'm in 9th grade.
One thing that I don't like about school is the lack of friends I have.
Why? Is anyone treating you bad? Actually I have a lot of friends except this junior that keeps on calling me a "stealer" all the time for no reason. I get very annoyed by that! And other people think I am popular! NO JOKE
I get pelted with stuff in class, and rocks thrown at me in between periods. When I get assertive about it, they go and get me in trouble. I've tried telling several teachers, but they still haven't stopped (not that I have expected them to stop). In my previous years of school, I made friends so easily, particularly with girls. This year had been very bad so far. I think it's because I have different interests then most other teenagers. How many teens do you run into who like instrumental music? Or meteorology?

WTF? That's terrible. I have been having many problems with bullies ever since I moved two years ago. I've also told staff members about it but the students just keep annoying me. Last year was probably the worst school year so far because this group of people who were on my bus (who are a grade ahead of me) who always bullied me and tried to get me in trouble by harrasing other people, especially girls. Fortunately those people aren't on my bus this year so I don't have to deal with that much anymore.
There are only like five people I am familiar with who are nice. Everyone else basically are bullies.
I'm really sorry to hear that Mike. :sad: I'm glad they aren't bugging you anymore. Nobody deserves to be treated this way.
I would've been with my old friends if I didn't switch school districts. The school that I was supposed to go to was prone to gang activity, drugs/alcohol, and poor school facilities.
Mike I feel sorry for you. I think public schools have a bad system of that. I am in a charter school in which we all have descent respect for each other. I am in Leadership Public Schools. And for you, only 5 people. I hope you didn't get beaten up, because that's terrible if that happens. That hasn't happened to me so far!
Derek, I feel sort of feel sorry for you, because people treat you bad and I feel that you did the right thing by telling the principal that this happened to you. I hope you are not beaten up so far.
And Thunder, I feel sorry that people call freshman "baby freshmen". That is rude. I am a freshmen too. And as for that, no one in my school calls any freshmen that. And it feels rude. I wish they would stop.
And I am warning you guys, you won't be able to survive in high school, because of these mean people. Try to do the best you can! You guys did the right thing!
