School Reviews麻豆果冻传媒>1 3/12/2021As a student, I'm going to give you my 100% honest opinion about this school. Let's start off by saying, im a Junior at Stoughton High School. I have been there since freshman year, except I switched to Deerfield High School/Mid, and let me tell you why. Freshman year was the worst year of my life. I got bullied terribly by everyone in my grade and higher. i didn''t understand why, what I did, or where I went wrong. I got told to end my life multiple times over social media and in person. I've tried to reach out for help to the counselors or the teachers but the teachers will send me to the counselors and the counselors BLAME MY GRADES FOR THE WAY IM FEELING. they say, How about let's take a look at your grades and come up with a solution as to why my grades are low and how I could raise them, and claim it will make me feel better. The students are very disrespectful and don't get discipline for anything that they do. It's pretty wild there. And for the school system, it's completely rigged. Teachers don't grade anything you turn in on time but will still mark it missing. If you turn in a lot of late work at one time, they will not grade it for over a month and your grade will not move. They have no sympathy for anybody at the school. that doesn't involve every single teacher, but I could name a lot, more than half of them, actually. After I came back junior year from DHS, it was all online. I had posted on my social media that I was coming back! my friends were excited and happy, but nobody else was. I got threats saying that I was going to get jumped or beat up over an anonymous app, told to watch my back, told to end my life. told that I was a waste of space, and a LOT of other names that shouldn't be said on here. I would honestly play it safe and not go to this school. Don't put your child through something that I had (and still am) to go through. it most likely will cause them severe depression just like me. Thank you for your time.Review Stoughton High School. Reviews should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
