Student Answers - Gr. 9

1. What was your experience as a student like from middle school to high school?

My experience as a student from middle school to high school was pretty average. Living in a small town, everyone kind of already knows each other. This makes things a lot easier.

2. What were some positives and negatives of school life?

A positive aspect of school life is that you don't just learn things from books. You also gain life experiences and learn things that can be used outside of work or school. You learn things like team work and patience. A negative is that sometimes some of the people there can influence you in a bad way. You never know if a peer/teacher is going to do something for the benefit of everybody, or for the benefit of only themselves.

3. Tell us some interesting stories about your school life.

The school I attend broadcasts its own television show. As somebody who is involved in computer graphics and audio/visual, I was involved of the production of the show. Basically, I was able to learn how to use all of the equipment, and learn how to run an actual television studio. It was lots of fun, and definitely a good experience.

4. How is high school and middle school different from schools in other countries?

I don't really know what aspects in Canadian Schools are unique from other schools, because I've never experienced life at another school outside of Canada, nor have I really travelled outside of the country.

5. What are some things that are important to Canadian students? What are some issues that exist in Canadian schools?

The values of Canadian students are going to vary based on the student you talk to. Personally, I believe that individual rights are important in schools. Freedom of speech, for example. Canada is a bilingual country, and I think that is a big issue in schools. Students being able to learn in their mother tongue is important.
