Firstly, thanks for the advice. All year they have been saying stuff, like I'm a tramp, and I say things back to try to scare them off. This is the first time they have ever hit me, but I think it just fueled their anger. I see them everyday at school (when I'm alone, usually) and I am quite sure they will do it again. It's been going on since September 2006.
Should I try to avoid them? I don't want to spend my life hiding, but is it likely that they would just forget? I never thought it would elevate to this level.
