I think school is fine the way it is now.
I'm fine with the ammount of holidays and school time that I have now. And I don't think it should be any shorter. Remember this is our education, which is very important, so we should be thankful for the ammount of time we have now instead of wanting to make it shorter.
Well, okay, when I have a bad day I will want the school year to be over faster... but that's only on the bad days.

ah, good, i like people that think like me :P . the only thing i think i would like different would be to have shorter breaks so that our summer can be longer-get school over with sooner to have more time to enjoy. besides that, school is fine just the way it is(we can even do without the change)

I'm in 8th grade, last year of middle school.

My day? I get on the bus at about 7:00 AM every morning. I get to school around 7:15 and hang around with my friends until 7:45. I go to homeroom at 7:50 for role call and announcements for the day. I then go to first period. My first period class changes every 9 weeks. I'm having health now. Before I had physical education, and after health I'll have art and general music. Anyway, second period I have band. Third period is math and fourth is science, both of which are pretty self-explanatory. Fifth period is a class called "Developmental Guidance". Maybe occasionally we'll have a little "about you" worksheet to do or something, but usually our teacher has something else to do so it's basically just 30 minutes we can use to hang out and talk to each other. After that is lunch, 30 minutes where you can eat in the cafeteria (which I never do) and then go hang out in the gym. After lunch is over I have sixth period, which is West Virginia Studies. (I still have no clue why we have to spend an entire year every 4 years learning about a state that most people aim to move out of anyway. We also have this big SAT-type thing we have to study for that focuses entirely on state history. -_-) After sixth is a ten-minute break where you can either hang out in the halls or go to the lobby to buy pizza. Then I have my two english classes for seventh and eighth, which are divided into English Grammar and English Literature. The day ends at 3:06. If I don't have after-school band or play practice, I get on the bus to go home. Because they put our school in a really stupid place, it takes me 45 minutes to get home because of traffic when it only takes like 15 in the morning. So, yeah. That's my day. All my classes are about 45 min long.

Mah, that's all I really have to say for now. I'm bored.

EDIT: We got out 2 hours early today when it it wasn't even snowing or icy or anything. It was just because they were FORCASTING some crappy weather that just came (and it's 7:30 now). I'm hoping for a snow day too.

Awwh.. Mayl's too lucky. I'd really like my winter vaccation to be longer than just 'round a month. December 22nd to January 15th. >_< And then we just continue with our second term for quite a while, maybe March, and then third term and exams. O___O

Other than that, I want school hours lessened. 8am to 3pm is waay too long. It should be 8am to 1pm at the most.

In other words, I hate going to school.
are you enjoying the time of eve?

And,the holidays are divided out well.Now,if only they could decease the amount/stacks of homework they give out.^^
And,sometimes,I just don't feel like going to school,all the pressure everyone puts on you,just for you to do well in all the exams.But,its for your own good,yeah.XD

You're calling that long? Meh, we had longer vaccations some time back. I guess most schools are reducing the breaktimes. I wish we could have snow here, so we could have a snow day here. =P

I reckon school is great. All the holidays are a reasonable length in my opinion.

I'm in Primary, by the way. I'm going to high school next year.

When I was younger, I used to complain about how long school was and homework and crap...now I'm grateful that I go to the school I go to now. Shorter school days on Wednesdays, Christmas vacation starting on the 16th when other local schools are getting out about three days before Christmas, summer vacation starting in mid-May when those schools are getting out weeks later...I have it good compared to them.

What gets me, though, is those stupid policies...if a student is late to class, the teacher can't accept their due assignments...pure crap, in my opinion.

In my opinion, we should get much less homework. I get far too much. I think that schooltime is the only time we should be forced to work in. It's cruel because some people may do other things out of school and not have time for homework.
