My name is prabath rai! I am from very small village in Jhapa,Nepal! Me and my parents came to United States when I was 12 years old for the better Education and the job opportunities Because in our country we lived our life as poverty, no Proper schools, jobs! My parents used to work as a labor and hardly mark $2 a day! Some days we would go to bed starving, wearing torn cloths, no shoes or slippers! I started At 7th grade here in the United States at East way middle school, I was bullied for bring different back ground. Racism but after graduating from middle school. I went to East neck high school which was life turning movements.I made lot of black and white friends, the teachers were awesome and the school offering AP/IB classes, I played soccer sports! All the facilities were amazing! I graduated from East neck high school in 2018 with GPA of 3:8! Now, I am currently attending University of North Carolina at Charlotte pursuing COMPUTER SCIENCE degree!
Truthfully, I've only attended in-person for 1 year and a half. I started my freshman year at school and due to Covid-19, started online school 3 months before finishing sophomore year. East Mecklenburg High School has a lot of clubs and sports that I have not tried but I did participate in HOSA club this year. It was informational but it wasn't really fun doing everything through computers. Classes were a breeze in freshman year and sophomore year. 1st semester of junior year was easy too but 2nd semester was more difficult. The teachers did their best to make sure every student grasped the information we learned despite most of us doing online learning. There were set times for tutoring and hours before and during school when we could go to specific classes and make up work or get tutoring.
The school for me was very nice overall. I am in the IB program there and it has really helped me improve so much in a lot of skills like math, reading, and writing. I also like that a lot of the teachers are dedicated to doing their jobs well. I also love that this school has challenging classes that push students to be the best, and prepares them for college. Lastly, I love that this school has a lot of resources and classes to choose from. The IB program gave me the opportunity to volunteer in many different elementary schools and many different places which I really enjoyed the experience overall. The school is overall good school acaedmically.
