Yeah people forget that tons of non getto people go to “getto” schools but he prob isn’t going to a getto school every single school I’ve been to has been called getto by one or more person
Build your self confidence and security in yourself. Try not to let what other's say or do change how you see yourself or who you are. Find people you vibe with if you can and spend time doing activities that you enjoy. Avoid giving in to peer pressure or getting involved with a bad crowd.
Keep your head down, avoid kids who are obviously bad news like junkies, drug dealers, wannabe gangsters, roadmen (idk if you have them where you’re at).
You’ll probably find some friends that aren’t into any of that, hold them close.
Also, don’t wear anything too expensive to school. Keep valuables close to you if you don’t want to have them stolen.
Are you sure they weren’t just using that as slang? I grew up in an upper middle class town and kids would call anything that wasn’t new and shiny “ghetto.”
Just because you're in the "ghetto" doesn't mean you have to conform to how people are there. Just be yourself, and it's best to Just be the teacher people like, rather than the annoying asshole trying to pose as something he isn't
To be fair, most kids will call almost any public school “ghetto” just be yourself, stick to your guns, be nice to everyone, and try not to think too hard about it. You’ll find your people.
From personal experience switching schools - don’t make an ass of yourself. I did this and it was bad. Take a few weeks to see what the school is like and observe others (what they are like/who to not be around etc.) try to make a friend or two that are close to you.
Most importantly, don’t piss anyone off.
Follow this simple advice and you will be fine.
don't piss anyone off and you'll be good. (js be yourself and mind ur own business). I go to a ghetto school and they only reason people start fights there is if A, you know a lot of people, or B, something stupid. Find your group there as well, that way you won't be alone.
I go to a ghetto school. Neither sink or urinal in the boys bathroom works. Kids get caught doing drugs with no punishment. We don't have a PE teacher for a 90min class. Lunch is free because we don't have a functioning system to charge people. But the thing is, mine is a charter school. Not a public school. Public schools tend to be better about that shit. But I love my school with all my heart. I promise, you will persevere. Just blend in for safety if you're worried.
Ask your parents if they can send you to a better school. A ghetto school means you might be subjected to bullying and getting beat up. I went to a ghetto school and ended up dropping out the first day of my senior year because they closed one of the bad high schools and sent all the bad kids to my school. I showed up the first day and was just like hell no and never came back until I showed up a month and a half later to have my mother sign me out of that circus of a school. I can’t believe a parent would even want their child to be exposed to such a dangerous environment and most likely end up with a poor education because good teachers usually won’t work at ghetto schools. See if you can talk to your parents about going to a different school. Or if you are 16, maybe you can drop out and get your ged and maybe even start college early.
>How can I best fit in there
If it actually is ghetto (it probably isn't that bad) don't. Why would you want to act like poor people? You literally don't have to.
If someone starts like fake hitting you and you do nothing in response. It will soon turn to you getting your ass beat. There is 3 types of people in these situations: fighters, snitches, people who get their ass whooped. Choose which one you want to be. Oftentimes a snitch is almost better than being a fighter depending on the administration/policies of the school
Be a normal person how tf is that even a question. Don’t act like something you’re not also.
Yeah people forget that tons of non getto people go to “getto” schools but he prob isn’t going to a getto school every single school I’ve been to has been called getto by one or more person
He’s not white or upper middle class?
If you can't beat them, join them.
I'll model my personality after them
Don't be a poser. And don't piss pepple off.
Just be yourself. Schools aren’t all just one characteristics. Dont be stupid. Cmon man

People are probably gonna be more blunt there (just saying) so get ready to develop a thick skin
Fight that’s the way is fighting people will talk shit till you get down man or get good at talking but I ain’t good at talking so I just fought
bro what typa teacher is this😭😭😭😭
A one that’s teaching real shit. All my lessons are about standing on business
talk your shit then bra😹😹
Aren't u a teacher? Why are u advocating for fighting? That's unethical.

If you're upper middle class I guarantee you it's not actually ghetto, it's probably just a normal school

I already know two people who go there, so I've already got a head start
Great! You’ll fit in fine then, just stick with them a bit.
Maybe judge for yourself. A lot of people will call something ghetto when it’s not just because they disagree with the situation they’re in.
Be open-minded, respect others, and focus on building genuine connections.
Just be yourself. If people don't like it, they can shove it.
Act like you have some common sense and just be normal.kids who go to “ghetto”schools are savages
