When I first entered East Lansing in middle school, I hated every second of it. Quite frankly, the kids had ignorant perceptions of black people and would make prejudice remarks. For instance, I was accused of stealing the shoes I wore because I was black. In addition, I was the recipient of many slave jokes after watching a famous slave movie in history class. That marked an awful experience. The kids were racially insensitive and that movie only fueled the flame. The only thing that I liked from that school was that I was getting what I felt was a great education. I'd like to see the racial divide within the school change. Also, slave movies should not we observed by immature children. Therefore, it should be removed from the curriculum.
Growing up in the East Lansing School District, I have experienced whirlwinds of different experiences, and learned multiple life lessons from them.
Throughout elementary and middle school, I had been bullied profusely. Not much was done on the matter, but I did learn to gain strength in myself to not rely on the school to defend myself.
In high school, I had many different challenges. One was the various problems that teachers had regarding my disability. Of course, I did have to leave class. Yet, I had no choice, but I did have the administration to help me through these obstacles.

The majority of the teachers in attendance at East Lansing High school are passionate about the subject which they are teaching and are willing to work with struggling students during lunches and after school to ensure that they understand the material. Unfortunately, a handful of teachers are not so hard working and make classes more difficult than is necessary. Both the athletic programs as well as clubs and organizations are plentiful and mostly well organized. The building itself is clean and well-kept. One of the things severely lacking at East Lansing High School is any mental health aid or awareness organization existing in the school. In my opinion, it is essential to provide high school students with a way to educate themselves on mental health and to offer services to those who may be suffering mentally.
