The EGG 

In my School

by Esther Flores

In my school, Woodburn Success, there are mostly Hispanic students such as myself.

In my school everyone does their own thing, their contracts and the work they need to do. Teachers help you when you ask for help and you are not allowed to get below a "B" or 80%. I like my class. My school is Alternative, so supposedly teens that come here are bad students. Some have really big mouths and some are quiet and do their own thing. But it's alright. That's why it is Alternative.

I live in America, in the State of Oregon, and I think that in Oregon everything is pretty good and goes pretty smoothly. Sometimes people are prejudiced; in my case I am prejudiced right back. Where I live, in the town of Woodburn, we have some problems like with water pollution and the town center. (There are too many people hanging out there and it makes it look ugly). It used to be nicer before when I was a little girl. I remember it was nice. Now it is all messed up. Those are two problems we have in Woodburn.
