Firstly, some teachers, especially the white teachers, are racist they like white kids while hate black and Asians. Next, they let you go up a grade every year until no matter what, even if you fail all your tests. Because of that, loads of kids who aren’t ready to go to middle school end up failing. Another reason I left back in 8th grade is no one in ISY is getting in to good schools. If you look at the school's history, the last time someone got into a school like Harvard. My last reason is that at least 25% of teachers like girls more than boys. For example, one of my last assignment was a group project and there were me and my friend who were boys and a random girl. We all wanted different things for our group project, but we made a compromise which would be fair to everyone, but that girl told the teacher that she wanted to do her idea and she made us do her idea!!!!! When I tried to tell her about our compromise, she didn't care, and she made us do her idea.

Well I’m an ex member and the school is big though but the teachers are horrible and they dont even respond to other students. They even comment about the other school being so bad and thats wrong cause their school is bad. The students dont even learn here and most of the class doesn’t know anything!
