At this school not only the local students but also from other country like from China, Australia, Japan, America, and Africa. They use English as their conversation language. There are many extra subjects (club). Sometimes they are so funny because they use different language to talk to each other. Even though they are different but they never have an argument.
Like in physical education (PE) subject the topic is about running. The teacher make a competition.
The teacher : 1, 2, 3 ready! Set! Go!
The teacher : Jarco, why don’t you run?
Jarco : I’m number 4 sir and you only ask for number 1, 2 and 3.
The teacher laughed at him. It is normal at school because every students have different point of view.
At that school they don not provide canteen, but the students are allowed to buy food and beverages from online application. Usually it need a long time to buy and arrive there because they give a complicated instruction to the driver (with other language). Nowadays the students are only allowed to bring food and beverages from their house. Some students agree and some students are not agree. The teacher make that rule because the food and beverages that they buy arrive after the lunch session and they usually buy unhealthy food and beverages.
California Junior High school is famous because of the rules and consequences. It only have one consequence. Every bad things that we do accidently or purposely we must get consequence.
