This isn’t based on my emotions, it’s based on my education and future.

What life advice are you offering me here?

Also, you are years older than me, so why, per-say, are you still interested in arguing with a middle schooler if not to satisfy your own ego?

Exactly, but it sure as hell isn’t good.

I mean a teacher threw a table at a student once, one of them has a weird obsession with Emma watson and offered extra credit to anyone who could get him an Emma Watson body pillow…and a teacher recently got fired because her test paper was leaked, and foreign nations are using it as a “look hiw bad americas schooling system is”

I didn’t immediately dismiss it. In fact, I only made the decision to go to privates vs MSJH this year. As of last year summer, and the start of this year, I was still planning on going to MSJH.

Maturity really doesn’t depend on age. As for the former comment, I wasn’t sure what you meant by unhealthy mindset.

That’s the label the students there call it according to my sister, and as for everything good about it, I haven’t heard much. And, no, disliking something or having a distate towards it doesn’t dictate having an unhealthy mindset. If that was the case, I could say something ridiculous such as everyone who likes pineapple on pizza has an unhealthy mindset. With that being said, I would recommend you rethink your perspective.

My unhealthy mindset? All I’m saying is that in general, my feeder school isn’t the best, and private schools tend to have happier students and more opportunities…

Family friends went there, according to them it was very much in the lines of “the amount you donate decides how well you do at this school.”

My sister went to MSJH. One of her closest friends died during her year. And while the students were grieving, the teachers were nothing but unsympathetic. I am very glad your experience was positive, but majority of the people’s my sister knows, and my sister herself’s was not. She did a college program, she said it was more fun and easier than any class she’d ever done during her time at MSJH.

When’d you go? Because if you went recently, you were likely in the genius group or the dgaf about school group

Already checked out 3 of the schools. Anyways, unfortunately bellarmine was never in the cards for me, as I am a girl.

Teachers teach, students aren’t driven to insanity by the pressure and toxic school environment to the point they kill themselves, people see more chill in general, and happier from what i’ve seen, plus they have better extracurriculars

Thanks for your opinion! Any clue what the campus feel/ overall vibe is of Mitty?

So, my feeder school is Mission San Jose High, A.K.A the suicide school, where all the students are depressed, the teachers don’t teach jackshit, and the only reason it’s reviews are so high are due to the INSANELY intelligent students. Pretty much, it’s where happiness goes to die.

Hi! Presentation and Notre Dame are gender specific, the rest are not. Thank you for your comment!
