This school is bad because when I was 11 years old I got jumped by 15 8th grader I got knocked out and passed out for 1 min and the teachers didn't care they were against me saying don't say stuff if you can't defend you're self and I said you should check the cameras to see if it's true and they said we don't need to check the cameras because they told us you started of course she is gonna believe 15 people more than me so we made a report and they didn't do anything so I changed school

I am currently a seventh grader at SSIMS and I think that it's pretty good. They have a wide range of electives and classes and you can get credits for high school when you take algebra or if you're in immersion. Plus it's an international baccalaureate school which makes the teaching/learning style different. I think that 7th grade is probably the hardest grade and personally I don't really like the ib program but it is good. Some people might call it "ghetto" but there are different groups of people like in every school. It is pretty diverse and the only real complaint I have is the administration, they are constantly stressing to us that we shouldn't push in the halls and stuff like that but to some of us who aren't doing it it's unfair. The principal is talking to us like it's ALL of us who are doing it. I don't expect to be praised for doing the right thing but he could realize that's its not all of us. So far I have liked most of my teachers and the English teachers are great! I would definitely recommend it and people who call it "ghetto" haven't experienced it's greatness and variety!
