Shanghai High School International Division=SHSID=Study Here, Sleep Is Deprived
One of the most prestigious schools in Shanghai.
Positives: The school is ginormous, the facilities are top-notch (ice rink, anyone?), and you can choose from up to 20 sports for PE. The IB program is one of the best in China, with 10% of students getting a full score of 45. Similarly, the school pumps out Ivy League acceptances. The fact that it is more Chinese than other international schools means there's not a lot of problems with bullying and underage drinking/smoking/vaping compared to other schools.
Negatives: The school is extremely Chinese for an international school, with 90% of the population being Asian. They are also very conservative, and prefer downplaying scandals before actually addressing the problem at the roots. The students here are very stressed bc teachers don't understand that students cannot do 3 hours of math homework every night. And it's funny how little the school teaches vs how hard the tests are. Without a tutor, you're screwed.
Oh yeah, forgot the GPA deflation. And how all the previously mentioned Ivy Acceptances are often hoarded by 1 person, though the school wouldn't tell you that.
But despite all these downsides, the students have an odd pride of being there. All in all, despite all the complaining the students does about their own school (and all the fantasizing they do about SAS), they ARE proud to be there.

Get the Shanghai High School International Division mug.by Internetjunk September 11, 2022
Get the School mug.School is what we call: a nessessary burden. You have to do school so that you aren"t dumb, but it takes forever and is pretty boring. Go to school kids.
"Ugh I have to go to school today."
"At least I made a friend at school, that's what makes it kinda fun."

Get the lawyer school mug.a place resembling prison, and it’s like torture the only enjoyable thing, is the breaks and recess since that’s the only time you can talk to your friends without getting shushed by a bitchy teacher (sometimes it could also be called hell because some teachers are real demons)

Get the Casuarina Primary School mug.An awful school located in Avenida Sarasota,Santo Domingo,Dominican Republic
Its a huge school with great and equppied facilities.The teachers are alright (except for the old ones).But unfortunatly its filled with rich,bratty,spoiled people who love to torment everyone is not just like them.With an administration who only cares about the schools image with parents and investors to keep the cash ROLLING in.Its Pre K-12th grade and offers a good education if you can overlook the absolutly horrible spoiled students.
