I know some people that are in higher grades; one of my friends from New York is in one grade ahead of what she's supposed to be. I guess that it wouldn't be bad to go because I have a lot of friends that are in public school, I just wouldn't want to be stuck in a building that controls almost everything that you do for more than eight hours. I mean, it's like prison. You can't even go to the bathroom whenever you want to. O_o Everything is so controlled, there's too much work, (And then once you get home, which is usually late, you have homework. After you've finished that, it's usually time to eat dinner, and then you have to go to bed unless you want to be extremely tired the next day!) I would just rather be homeschooled... It's my opinion, though. The schools are just too obsessed with how much information they can stuff in a kid's brain each day.
wow, we hardly ever get homework, and since this is a small town, i can walk home from my school and get home in about 15 minutes, and i control the teachers (at least their tempures) and i usually mock and be sarcastic to my History teacher and he called me a moron! man the nerve! XD
 
Lol, Kayleigh, I see it in totally different perspectives than you. We have a lot of freedom, and, I guess the homework is what you're supposed to have, they gotta prepare you for when you go to college and whatnot. There isn't so much work, it can get intense, yes, but if you're prepared, then you will be able to handle all of it. The cool thing is that you are always with your friends, so you don't get lonely. If I was homeschooled, I would get really lonely, but I'm not, and I guess I like it that way better =/.

I never liked my history teachers!....save for one....
*tosses pitch forks and torches around to create an angry mob*
Get 'em boys! Hehe...

We do get a decent amount of work here in Miami. Sometimes, it seems as if the teachers think the work is more important then the actual learning!
 
Lol, I wonder how he got that idea, Scott...? XD J/K.

Well, anyways, you're lucky that you don't get very much homework. My cousin lives with us at the moment, and he's in 5th grade. You should see how much homework he has! I feel sorry for him; he'll want to go play outside with my brother or something after school, but he's stuck doing schoolwork, which he's been doing the whole day! And once he is done, he has to eat dinner and then get ready for bed. There's no time for him to play.

Plus, the teachers always seem to give him sign-ups over really stupid things! One time, he accidently forgot a red pen, and he got a sign-up. (If you call them something different in your school, they're the slips which notify your parent that you've been bad, and they have to sign it.) Those teachers are too sign-up happy. x_x; They'll give them to you over the dumbest things. Like if you accidently forget something, then you get a sign-up. (Or two, or three, or four, etc. It keeps going on and on and on...) If the teachers forget their whole schedule, then everything's perfectly okay! That's the annoying part.

But, I don't see why I'm complaining, lol. I don't even have to deal with it. It just irks me because my cousin does...
 
I don't really get a lot of homework... not that I really do it when I have some. I try to do as much as I can but I usually get sidetracked. Next year I'll make it a goal to do all or at least most of my homework. The homework I do get I usually try to finish in school... because in school I'm in work mode. Once I get home there's a million other things I want to do. Thank God for study halls! I see why teachers do give homework though... it's just that when you have 6 real classes and each one gives you an hour or so worth of homework, there just isn't time. So I hope that next year I'll try to overcome my procrastination and actually do my work on time...

My history teacher is really nice, yet really hard! He's my hardest teacher and I'm struggling to maintain a C- in that class. But he is one of my nicest teachers other than the pop quizzes and tests he gives! Actually all my history teachers have been nice. It's the Spanish teachers I gotta worry about...
 
I'm going to 7th grade and I'm exited because it seems
Im gonna get pretty nice teachers this year.Even thou I
always get along with teachers because I never misbehave.
 
I'm going to be in 6th grade. All of my subjects in my other school were taught in the same classroom.
 
8th grade, what where you expecting.
 
I blame public school for all my problems, but I still think it's ok...not great though :P If I was homeschooled, I'd have a hard time socially once I was out of school, I think. I was actually homeschooled as a kindergartner since my teachers said I was on a third-grade level of intelligence or something back then. The sad thing is they didn't even offer to promote me a grade...if that would have happened I would have been with all the people I get along with all my life, which would have caused some other good things, but I won't get into that sub-topic. At my school the work isn't all that hard, but maybe that's because I hardly do homework. Odd thing is that I still get As in all my classes o_O ...
 
i'm going into 7th. the year of semifinals, no watching movies on special occasions, and more homework. its also my 2nd year of middle skool.

Yeah it's crazy. There are no bathrooms for 5 periods in my school. That's more than half school day. I'm beggining to wonder why they actually have bathrooms. :P

One of your friends in New York skipped a grade? :P
I'm not surprised. Schools here are so easy.
And I'm actually in the top public middle school in my borough.
Which isn't too surprising either.
 
From my constent moving around all the world and the country I'm going to be in the 11th grade, so I'll be a Jr. next year. I should really be going into the 10h not 11th but ehh..life is good to me sometimes. Allthough going from algebra 1 to Caluculas 1 is kinda odd but I'm getting the hang of it. Still being skipped by one year most of my friends are a grade under me, but that dosent matter all of our class have kids from diffrent grades. MAn but most of the kids in my new class will be in the 12th and 11th grades which is going to make me the KID as in the youngest, man thats sourly going to suck.
 
I am going to be a freshman, nothing big really. A lot of my friends are afraid of high school, but I already know a few people there, so I'm not all that nervous about it.
 
High school is nothing big, just a lot of older people. But people make it out to be something bigger then it really is. For me I felt no difference with high school and middle.
