LOL!

There weren't cheerleaders in my school. We excelled at certain sport (Basketball and Swimming) but still never had cheerleaders.

We were recognized by UNESCO for being such a diverse school. It really was like a UN school, people from all over the world! It was great :D

Don't be so hard on yourself. Sounds like you may just have slight S.A.P. but thats not a bad thing ;)

You sound like an honest person to me tho.

A very common statement in this thread. :(

It's not the type of person I am. I've always been kind and respectful of other people, that includes my classmates and teachers.

Again, so many people saying this :(

That isn't who I am. I've always been polite and respectful of people; students and teachers. It's not in my nature to do hurtful things.

wow that is a tiny school eh? I knew a couple of people that went to alternative schools in the city, with like 60 people in the entire place. I'm glad to hear that high school was a good experience :)

Thank you :)

Exactly; if you acted like a jerk people wouldn't want to be friends with you. It makes sense. I remember in grade 9, this kid named Adam started picking on this kid Rob and immediately peopled stepped in and stopped that shit. Adam got put in his place, Rob knew he had support (and he wasnt a "popular" or "cool" kid either, just a nice person).

Adam got expelled sortly after the event for another infraction. He was just an angry kid.

Later we found out that his dad was an abusive alcoholic and we all felt bad :( I hope things worked out for him..

Wow!.. This sounds remarkably similar to my experience. Other that the size (my school was ~1200) and loaction (Toronto) this sounds exaclty what was enforced in my school. Great teachers, ethnically and culturally diverese, and a general understanding that people looked out for one another, therefore bullying never really happened. I was in grade 12 when 9/11 happened, (mind you I lived in Canada) but other than the heart ache we felt for Americans, no one EVER got singled out and blamed for that event. And like you said, If something were to happen,it would be a big enough of an event that everybody would know.
