163 Words1 Page

Some people who I researched would be accepted in this school. Even though West Hancock has a lot of bright individuals, the other portion of students are awfully rude. Teenagers not only judge others by their appearance but also criticize others by their personality, and if a poor child with tree bark skin came to our school, nobody would accept him. The world’s tallest man, after looking over all the cases that I have researched, has the highest chance of being accepted in our high school. People that pick on others might be afraid to mess with him due to his height, his feet, and his hands. If the world’s smallest man came to our school, it would be a completely different story.

    Fremont High School is a place to learn, and some students truly believe in this. Even though the school is in Los Angeles, which is known for a bad reputation, some students seek success.
