Hi my name is Danielle and I’m a sophomore at Aurora Alternative High School. First I want to tell you a little bit about myself. Well I'm tall, I have brown skin, brown hair, I wear glasses, I’m funny, loving, and kind. I love to talk on the phone, go shopping, and hanging out with my friends. Now I want to tell you a little bit about why I came to Bloomington. At first I was living in Benton Harbor, Michigan. I attended Benton Harbor High school. I think that it’s not a good place to go to school or raise your kids. When I was going to school there I felt unwelcome and the teachers were never helpful. Well, to me anyway. I think it had something to do with my brother, but I'm not going to get into the details. So then I started to skipping and that was starting to be an every day thing. Then it started getting worse. My mom finally took me out of school and I came down here to live with my sister.
