    Alright so what are your guy's schools like?

    Mine is alright I guess... The courses are good but god the people in my school are SO stupid!

    Ex.

    -Last year someone didn't want to take a test so they called the school and called in a bomb threat!

    - Someone else last year kept pulling the fire alarm everyday for almost 2 weeks! (IN THE WINTER!!)

    - There's like a fight EVERY day for the most stupidest reasons.

    - This girl told my friend that she was pregnant when she really wasn't!

    and so much more I can't continue. So what's your school like?

    edit: oh yeah there are over 1500 students in my school.
    and we have one of the top 3 rugby teams

    :chemist: For the record, I go to Oak Park High in Winnipeg, MB, Canada.
    -Trying to get out after classes: Picture 900 people all heading for the same doors. At the same time. Not gonna happen.

    -We've had 4 fire alarms. In the last 4 days. The first one was a real fire, last 3 were total BS. It does kill time nicely though. False alarms are fined at $650 a pop.

    -My chem teacher has almost blown the entire school up twice. Picture a weather balloon. Picture it full of hydrogen. Now picture it exploding indoors and taking out ceiling panels. Neat, eh?

    -***holes, ***holes and more ***holes. If ***holes could fly, this place'd be busier than Heathrow.

    -Every night before Halloween (the 30th), the words "Oak Park High" are spraypainted to read "Toak Park High". It's a tradition, and people make bets on what colour the T will be that year...hehe

    - Nearly 2000 students.

    - Far better funding for sports than fine arts. (Can you tell that I'm a band and theater geek?)

    - Fairly high academic standards. (We have six National Merit Scholars, plus a bunch more Semifinalists and Commended Scholars.)

    - The downfall? Most kids are WAY too interested in their cell phones and clothes.

    - The bigger downfall? The school itself is practically falling apart. We had a gas leak and four water pipes burst all in one day. The wiring is so bad our computers crash regularly and the electricity has been known to suddenly cut.

    That's it? My school was put into two shifts because it has over 4000.

    My school is ####. If you sniff it, it smells like ####. If you lick it, it taste like ####. If you touch it, it feels like ####. Hence, my calling it ####.

    Only good thing I heard of my school is that our school had the highest score average in the FCAT Writing test. (I dunno if it's in the U.S or just Florida or what) I think the principle lied. My essay had a little drawing of a guy cleaning #### off a toilet..

    Oh, look, bird ####. (That's what decorates the school)

    My school is rather small compared to some of y'all's, I think. We have maybe 500-600 students, I think. I live in a rural area outside of a small town, so go figure. The students that go there are okay. I don't really have many friends, if you're wondering. We have the normal groups, one of them being the preps, which I don't really like, but whatever. The teachers are alright. No rocket scientists or anything, but some of them know what they're talking about. I actually like my principal; he's on the younger side and pretty cool.

    All in all, I suppose I'm...content, if that's the proper word, at my school, which is called Dan River High School. Let's just say I'd rather go there than our cross-county rivals, Tunstall High School :chemist:

    My school life was hell. I was picked on almost every day and I didn't even have any classification. I was a shadow that nobody remembers. I had like, maybe one friend at a time and those people I did make friends with don't even talk to me or hang out with me anymore.

    Teachers thought I was a lost cause because I took an IQ test in the 6th grade to find out I was a level behind in learning. So I was stuck in modified classes or special education classes. I never asked for help because I had HORRIBLE self esteeme, so I usually failed tests and barely passed.

    My biggest accomplishment in high school was not only graduating, since doctors didn't think I would, but also passing an acidemic history course with a mark in the 70's. Something I assumed I could never do and was convinced I was going to fail.

    I graduated on June 26, 2000, and I wear my grad ring with pride.

    My school is decent at best, the administration is good. I do have some things to complain about, minor things though.

    I love my school! It's crazy at times, and some classes are insanely hard, but for the most part it's awesome (not to mention that I'm really glad that my friend from home decided to come here next year. ^_^) It's got a really awesome view of the bay, so there's no complaining.

    Bay view.

    Oh, and according to US News it's the 21st best college in the nation, but it's the #1 public university (the 20 before it are all private). Go us! :p

Thats the main problem at my school... everything thinks they are better then everyone else and they are all ####ed up. The school is like filled with old buildings and it sucks. sucky school site thing...

    Hmm.. well, I have no peer pressure, good food, no annoying teachers, no dumb kids, no bullies,... or anything like that. I don't even remember what the bad things about my school was....


    Yeah I'm homeschooled. ;)

    my school is uniform free! So i've got luck.
    But that doesn't mean i like my school. My school is strict Christian, and i'm not, so that's already one thing that annoys me.
    And i'm not alowed to dye my hair too. Also, i'm not allowed to wear short skirts, too short t-shirts (i mean by that, a t-shirt by the bellybutton, what actually isn't too short) Oh yeah, and ofcourse NO pants, cause that's from the devil....(for the girls)
    Everyday we read 2 times in the bible *choke,choke* and pray a lot in there. :x

    But in spite of that, i had a great time there together with my friends!
    Well that's my school for so far.
