Being An 8th Grader

1/8/2020

           Being an 8th grader this year is slightly different. It feels like a baby senior. Simply because this is my last year at Higgins. I like to think about it as if I'm “almost done” but this is not over yet. After 8th grade, I will be going to Clarksdale High School. Honestly, I’m kinda ready to leave Higgins. This year is different from last year. The teachers are different, the rules are different, the students are different and the classes. Everything has changed. This year they are more strict. In fact, an example is they’re taking prom away from us. Simply because we “can’t afford it”. I just don’t understand how they can afford fences to build around the school but can’t afford for us to have prom. I mean it’s really not fair. Last year, the former 8th graders had an amazing prom. It’s clearly not fair, we deserve a chance to experience our first prom just how they had the chance to experience it. In my opinion, I feel like they are spending the money on unnecessary.
          This year is nothing how I thought it would be. I know other 8th graders would agree also. I’ve heard so many 8th graders around the school saying that they cannot wait to go to another school. I feel them because I feel the same. I’m not gonna blame everything on the school, it’s also the students at the school. There have been so many problems at our school it doesn’t make any sense. This is the year where the most things happened. We’ve had so many altercations and lock-downs more than ever. It’s honestly unsafe. If they are so concerned about our safety, it doesn’t seem like it. If you ask me, I honestly don’t feel safe in that school. But they’re not ready for that conversation. 
          
To sum this all up, 8th grade is a rocky chapter for my life. I’m kinda hesitating to turn the page. I’m skeptical about knowing what’s going to happen next. Stay tuned in the next chapter of “Surviving Eighth Grade.”
