Yes. Very small Catholic school, eighties/early 90's, school shootings unheard of then.

Not really. Although it's not as bad as having to go to highschool in the States where people shoot at other people. Had problems with bullies etc.

I felt very safe...the only concern I really had was worrying about whether I would pass/fail tests.

No, not for years. Which is why I dropped out. It came to be that after so long, I felt so unsafe there, that I soon became the unsafe one. Fecking school systems and their lack of action.

Haha, well, at my last school, sure, my current school, I don't know. Only been two days, but it's a Catholic school so, *shrug*. The only thing really 'wrong' with my school is the drug problem... and really... it's not like the school is big enough to deal in the halls or anything.

My school is full of Metro boys. The girls are pissy, but the boys are harmless.

Yes. Simply b/c nobody cares about my school. As much as the football team likes to believe, we're not that important.

Oh no no no. We had fights every day and people would beat you up for being weird. Good thing I was weird in a way that made people feel bad for me. It was a stereotypical public school with knife-wielding gangster kids, except it was in the suburbs.

It was a rather "ghetto" high school, but I still felt safe. People tended not to mess with others outside their own groups. I did get threatened to have my ass kicked once, but it was an empty threat. |

It was a big school, but rather safe.
No one brought guns, the worse that could happen was an ass beating. Ah, the good old days!

Yep pretty much, the only time where I felt a little threatened is when I just entered the school. I was in form 1 and the form 5 guys would come to our class and collect money from us.

The doors are always locked, you're not even allowed to leave the cafeteria at lunch FFS.
