I need serious help.

I am in 9th grade and have recently changed schools, leaving behind my friends and everything I had built from the moment I first started. Since attending this new school, I have never felt so unsatisfied in my life. It is a major downgrade from my previous school. The place itself is horrible, especially considering the $12,000 annual tuition. The teachers are unbearable—constantly preaching about how supportive and understanding they are when, in reality, they are the exact opposite. However, they are the least of my concerns.

The students, on the other hand, are even worse. I’m not exactly sure how to describe them, but the best word that comes to mind is "weird." It’s a far cry from my previous school, where students were mature and kind. In comparison, these students are even worse than the teachers.

Firstly, they are extremely disruptive in class. I don’t mind people being silly and having fun (I do it all the time), but these students take it to a whole new level. Secondly, they are annoying to be around—constantly obnoxious, mean, and oblivious. I've even seen at least two students vaping or smoking something else, despite being only around 14 years old.

Some of them have also made inappropriate comments toward me, calling me "gorgeous" and "sexy" in a "joking" manner. But considering I’ve only been at this school for three days, I don’t think those are things you should say to someone you barely know.

Additionally, 97% of the students are white. Is that a bad thing? No. But when you’re the only non-white individual, it sucks. Every time I come home, I have a mental breakdown thinking about everything I’ve lost—sometimes even feeling the urge to cry at school. I’ve tried discussing it with my parents, but it’s futile. My mom gets mad, says she has no other option, completely ignores everything I tell her, and just tells me to get over it.

I don’t know what to do. I can’t stay at this school any longer, but I have no other option. My sister feels the same way—she even vomits from the stress. I have experience moving schools, and I can confidently say this is the worst one.

Any suggestions what to do?
