	The argument of when the creation of music arose remains unknown and most likely will never settle, as it relates to vast amounts of historical events, religions and the overall creation of mankind. While a couple of scholars continue to choose to argue over the philosophy and origin of music, others prefer to admire it while it continues to grow and evolve. Music remains an art in itself and constantly exceeds listeners expectations.

Along with students who become the subject of bullying at school, there remains a multitude of bullied students who may not realize bullying is occurring. Potentially, students may become the subject of bullying by a teacher, but choose not to report anything because they feel as though no one would side with them, which may remain. “There was a girl I had a class with. She said the teacher constantly got on her. His job is to correct students, so thats why I think no one said anything about it, but he directed most of his comments only to her. She later told me that she felt he was targeting her but she didnt say anything to other teachers because she felt like they wouldnt believe her and also it would cause more problems,” freshman Coleman Powers said.

My mom is a health scientist at the US Department of Health and Human Services also in Atlanta. They raised me very well and explained the way of the world to me when I was very young. Now, I am a magnet student at North Cobb taking some AP classes as well. I would definitely say my parents are the reason why I am currently successful in school today,” Freshman Marissa Grier said.

A fake and non-supportive friend to someone in any community may poorly impact many for a while. If one fakes support for a community, it causes a ripple effect once the supposed support comes out. Faking support leads people to rethink the qualities of a person and potentially lead to mistrust.
