Yeah, our school is just too strict with these internet bans. You see... the reason they don't let us use Google is that 2 years ago or so this kid at the school was in the library, researching and the librarian caught him on Google looking up "inappropriate things for a child to research". Ever since then the teachers here take it pretty seriously if anyone else wants to use Google.
If someone looks at inappropriate things at my school they bring your parents in and show them. It has only happened once and since then no one has ever looked at them again. But I can understand there reason for doing it.

Has any of your schools blocked PC?

Heh. My school hardly cares.

Plus, the teachers are fools, so they give us a computer assignment and then leave the room. What is wrong with them!? XD
Are you serious? Don't those teachers realize that potentially half of the class won't even do the assignment? XD
If I were you... I'd just ask someone who did the assignment for answers and use that time to have fun. XD

My school seems to block more websites every time I go on their computers. Sure, we can search for things on google, but half the stuff we click on is blocked, even forums like this. I've even tried to get on a site for revision on a particular subject, but that was blocked too. We can get taken off the system if we go on a proxy site, so I don't really chance anything by somehow getting into a website that was blocked. XD;

You start school this Monday? I don't start school till next Monday.

@Emma: Forums are blocked on your school computers? Wow... that's really extreme of them to do. The computers over here never blocked forums unless they were inappropriate. Even PC worked on my school's computers. I dunno if that'll still be the case this year though.

Most people start school before me, I don't go back till a week on Wednesday.

Some forums are blocked at my school. If a forum gets popular around school then they block it. But I am the only person at school on PC so it won't get blocked. Doubt anyone from my school would join up as most don't like forums.

That always seems to be the case at schools. If students really like a site, they block it. Nexopia was a big trend at our school, and they blocked it for no reason. Any sites that get popular among students always seem to get blocked in some way with some excuse given for the site in question.

I start school on Monday. I used to start school on the second Monday of August which would have been August 13th but it was finally changed to the last Monday of August.

As for the subject of blocked websites, nearly everything is blocked in my school. Most of the time, they are blocked for no reason. When I do a research project for school, I prefer doing the research at home where nothing is blocked. Only problem is that I get sidetracked from my project really easily by going to other sites. >.>

Yes I start school this monday:(
Wish I could start in the next week like you
You see... the thing about starting school a week later is that you get most of your holidays shortened. Like this year... there's not even going to be a spring break. All I get is a shortly extended Easter holiday and less of Christmas break. Not to mention a lot less days off school. Before I got two days off each month, now it'll only be once a month or every two monthes.

Our calender was changed this year. We only get Thursday and Friday off for Thanksgiving, which my dad hates. I'm not sure about our Christmas vacation, though.

You only get two days off school for the whole year?! Wow... never heard of that kind of situation at school before. But I'm sure they won't take away from your Christmas holidays.

You make it sound like you don't get weekends off...

I have no idea when I'm going back, though I'm guessing it'll be the 4th or the 11th.

...If you start school on the 11th, I'd consider you the luckiest dude ever. You'd get an extra week of summer compared to when I'm goin back. >_>;

@Dawg: Least you get 2 days for Thanksgiving. I think last year we only had one day just for Thanksgiving. >_>;

I was fine with our school calender, but people had to complain and now it's all weird.

Plus, now it's state law that we can't start school before August 27th. >_>

I wouldn't mind the extra week even if it meant a couple more school days get tacked on somewhere; I've yet to finish my summer homework.

...You actually get summer homework?! o_o;
Goodness... Over here teachers don't bother giving summer homework. I think they're too lazy or something. Look on the bright side though, Simon. You always have to almighty power of knowledge found in the internet. You can honestly find answers and help with anything on Google.

That's how I got help with a lot of homework. I bet the teachers always wondered why stuff was worded different than they said it. XD
