    At Lindbergh, our community is extremely diverse — with people from over 50 countries attending our school, the experience is humbling. Networking with students from different countries is like connecting with the world. Many of my classmates have shared their stories with me Yahya from Pakistan, Priti from India, and David from China.
    Yahya was escaping a Civil War and corrupt government.
    Priti’s father wanted to give her an opportunity to thrive and elevate her future in the states.
    David is here for his own education, his mom lives in China and doesn’t see him often.
    The teachers at Lindbergh are the reason why students like myself are accepted and have an opportunity to learn everyday.
    The staff create a comfortable and healthy environment, letting students express their own unique behaviors and languages.
    I love my school.

    Recently, I can see it's attempts to improve by providing everyone with laptops and promoting it's diversity but frankly that's the only thing Lindbergh has going for it. Lindbergh is diverse but there's still so much separation between the different races. There are gang wars between the Hispanic and Slavic gangs. There's so many fights at Lindbergh that it's become a meme within the Renton School District. I hear stories and see videos about other schools and their school pride and I get surprised. I didn't know it was common for students be proud of the school they come from and that's depressing. Lindbergh High School staff need to do a better job of unifying students and creating a better school environment.
    As I walk the halls of Lindbergh, I see various skin tones and hair colors: brown, black, white, curly, and straight hair. I see diversity. As a Latina, I feel comfortable at Lindbergh because there are people who look like me and racial prejudice is not placed on me by my peers or teachers. In other schools across the country, a racial majority exists among the student population and the kids who are of a different racial background feel like outsiders. At Lindbergh, we’re united despite being different. The students at Lindbergh are living in the future where racism and stereotypes don’t exist. Despite this, the fire department most likely despises Lindbergh because we have our fire alarm pulled or triggered on a regular basis; they once had to come three times in one day. This issue has been going on for the past couple of years and needs to be addressed by the faculty to come to a solution.
