One day in Lindley Middle School there were two girls in Mr. Foreman’s classroom and their names were Anazia Maisonet-Snell and Lanecia Hayward. So as they were just sitting in class doing their work Lanecia decided she was going to take Anazia’s pencil case because her pencil broke and when Anazia saw Lanecia took her pencil case Anazia said, “Give me back my pencil case” and Lanecia didn’t which made Anazia very upset.

Alexandra Robbins in chapter four of overachievers, has said throughout the chapter that students cannot cope with so much school related stress that it affects their mental health and general well-being. She does this by addressing the concerns of the students that she has been following that results in stress. She emphasizes students lack of sleep that ultimately affects their attentiveness at school. She also includes the effect of No Child Left Behind and how school practices have transitioned into focusing on america’s testing culture than the pursuit of creativity from students. She claims that cheating is on the rise and is becoming a standard practice within students because it helps relieve the pressure that students get buried in. Skeptics would disagree with her arguments of students’ unhealthy school relating stress by pointing out that students have their own right into what they choose to participate and how well they want to excel in a classroom and if it's too much they can stop. But like AP Frank and many other students across america including myself; parents force their children to achieve higher, And creating the image that they aren’t good enough or they won't get into college. And one thing I can strongly agree on is the lack of sleep that really creates stress!

I went to the same elementary school from kindergarten to 5th grade, Suncoast Elementary School. My brother, my sister and I all went to Suncoast Elementary school from k-5th. My sister is still in elementary school, but once she gets out she’ll either go to Gulf Coast or Powell. My brother, my sister and I all had the same kindergarten class room but always had a different teacher. At that school my brother would hang out with the people in the office often so when I got there they all knew my name and was extra nice to me. This is only about my experience from kindergarten through 3rd grade.

School is a crucial part of a person’s life due to the amount of knowledge and successability a person might gain in their future.

I turn to the building, not even two seconds after looking at it, a lady in black comes up to me and grabs my arm. "You need to get in the school before the bell rings young man!" Her voice was eerie in a sense. She dragged me into the building, standing there were tons of other students talking to their friends and socializing. The lady walks back outside to "greet" the other late students. I stand in the middle of the sea of students, not knowing what to do.
