Carl-Junction School Experience

I want to write about the experiences that I encountered after attending Carl Junction schools, and the impact and difference it made on my life. People think all schools are the same, that it is school, there’s kids and there’s teachers, you go and sit for 8 hours and you get marked as ‘present’ regardless if you’re learning or not, and if you’re present and you don’t fail, then you go on to the next grade. But I realized something different, when things got switched up for me. I attended Carl Junction schools from 1st grade to the very end of 6th grade, and then I started Joplin in the 7th grade, not knowing anyone from this school, or really this area. When I started school at Joplin I was so nervous, I was nervous about the normal stuff, that no one would like me, I would sit by myself, or people would be mean to me. But to …show more content…
It really all started in my 2nd hour math class, I was in Algebra and I had no idea what the teacher was talking about, or what she was doing, So I decided to ask, “Ms. Teacher, I am new to this class, and I’m not sure if I learned this yet.” She looked at me as if I was garbage, as if I was the stupidest person on this plant. She sharply replied with, “That is not my problem, your previous school should have taught you this, you can go to the principal to switch to a easier class, if this is too hard for you,” I was absolutely shocked about how rude and inconsiderate a teacher could be, right after that, the girl behind me said “It’s because she’s from Joplin,” the whole class started laughing, including the teacher who still did not help, now, this girl did know that I had attended Carl Junction, and she knew that I had moved back, but I never really talked to this girl, or gave her much thought until that
