From school work to just the people in school‚ I hated everything. Along with I hung around the wrong people that peer pressured me into doing stupid things to get me in trouble.

Fighting and cussing out teachers because I didn’t appreciate the way they spoke to me‚ skipping classes because my friend thought it would be fun‚ I was just to stupid and young to realize I was throwing my life away. So going into my 10th grade year I ended up getting sent to

School Life in the 1950’s School Life in the 1950’s was harder than today because the facilities were few and inadequate. Teachers were stricter and corporal punishment was still in use.
