how old are people in 7th and 8th grades?
Im never around when people have fights in my school. There'll be a huge stampede and Im just like "nothx". As soon as a stampede forms the staff come running out of the blocks so there really isnt any point. Having fights is pointless, imo, you just get put on report or excluded/suspended D:

Ive seen a few fights, girls swinging handbags and pulling hair, guys just punching the crap outta someone else, but nothing major. There are no weapons of any sort even allowed in my school.
