Personal Narrative: Growing Up In My Middle School

380 Words2 Pages

Growing up, my father was in the army so we moved quite a bit. All of the elementary schools that I attended were either private international schools or schools on military bases. It wasn’t until middle school, when my dad retired from the military, that I first experienced a public school. The middle school I attended was very culturally and economically diverse, as was my high school. While I appreciated the diversity, I did not appreciate all of the drug dealing, fighting, and bullying that took place in the halls. It was hard to avoid getting mixed up with the wrong crowd and I watched a lot of my middle school classmates spiral out of control. On the plus side, it was in middle school that I met my two oldest and dearest friends.

    Middle school was a interesting time in my life, much different from grade school for many reasons. Mainly, you had several teachers throughout the day. This was much different than elementary school going from one teacher to 6-7 different teachers a day. Another difference was that it was a mix between freedom but then at the same time, there was no freedom. This made me dislike middle school because they expected a lot more but didn’t allow you to do other things.
