A friend of mine was a substitute teacher here for a couple years before he got full time work. He traveled to almost every school in every ethnic neighborhood and gave me a rundown how they go together. He himself is a gay half Korean/Chinese born in Canada.
- Filipinos from the Main St area. Their grades suck, attention span rare. Girls time was spent on nails and hair, guys dancing and playing basketball. Nicest kids though and very respectful. Do not send your kid there if you want good grades.
- West Side whites. Wealthy, clique, hard working and charming. But can be ruthless (girls) and the boys can be violent. Nice to your face, and very respectful. Send your kids there if you have the status and money to ensure your kid is not outcast.
- East Van First Nations from Hastings. Violent, hungry (said kids ate from vending machines), massive home problems, zero attendance. Counselors worked full time with most of them and class sizes were often 10 students. 20% graduate. Lots of drugs, booze and sex. Most girls had babies by grade 11 and dropped out. Do not send your kid there for any reason.
- South Vancouver Indians. Good students and good respect. The girls were very high achievers and the guys were smart but sometimes didn't care about much other than hockey or drinking. A good amount of violence. Send your kid there if they are tough and cool with Indians.
- South West Vancouver Chinese. Disciplined. Hard working. Respectful. Send your kids there if they like studying and clubs and are cool with this type of Chinese.
- East Van Chinese. Hard working, respectful. More thuggish and lots of drama between groups. Girls getting into it too. Lots of relationship drama, fights on weekends, drunken stupidity. Do not send your kids there unless its the Tech High School.
I could go on for a bit but you get the idea. Immigration of one core group fucks it up for the rest. Even the Chinese can't deal with each other. Spread the immigration out and make some room for people who can't afford to buy citizenship but have the necessary skills to make the points.
This is so spot on it's quite funny.
