Hi. I'm 13 yrs old and I go to middle school. I was an immigrant from the Philippine Islands and I jsut got in the USA a year ago but now I'm a permanent resident(not an american citizen). My problem is that my classmates in my school react to me so differently and unkind. They think I'm weird and outrageously different from them. They treat me like I'm an animal whom which they can make feel bad and harrass any time. My description of my self is I'm smart, I'm an "a" student, kind and very helpful. Sometimes, they don't want to be with me, they just go near me if they want me to answer a question on our assignments. I'm really sad of this because in my former school, I'm very respected and not used as an answering robot. Sometimes I even cry when I get home. But in my first american school in California, I'm treated nicely but when I moved here in Connecticut, I'm treated as described above. Is it because I am one of the best students in our class and they are jealous?
