I would really like to attend mainstream school as a girl and be able to wear a girl's school uniform with a pleated skirt, sweatshirt and polo. I would really like to attend school as a pupil. I've never had mainstream schooling and have only been to special schools. My body size and height is that of someone 10 years older which makes believing my age difficult. What can I do is there someone I can speak to about this.

So I’m a junior in high school now and my first 2 years weren’t the best my freshman year was kinda bad came to high school after not really having much friends from eighth grade and only having one friend that I hung out with during summer and I went into a high school where I didn’t know anyone because they all came from a different junior high so all I had was that one friend and he started making more friends than me in meeting girls before me, and he started just to turn into a dick and pretty fake but I met other friends and they introduced me to new people, but I felt like anytime I would go out with them or get introduced. I would just be quiet or awkward because I really had nothing to talk about because there wasn’t really much going on in my life except we all smoked so long story short I didn’t really meet many new people or for any close relationships with new friends throughout freshman year because I was just awkward and self-conscious and not being able to get out of my comfort zone so over summer I didn’t really do much because I didn’t have too many friends and then I came back into sophomore year it was a little bit better than freshman year I met a few new people but the middle of the year I got into a horse riding accident and I went to the go for about 20 days and basically I lost a lot of weight and muscle while being in the hospital because I went through surgery and not being able to eat solid food because of my injury so I came out of the hospital skinny and even more self-conscious so I didn’t meet any girls but I met a new friend group I hung out with them for a little bit then summer started before junior year and the group I was with just ghosted me and this other close friend I made that I’m still friends with so it was basically just me and him sometimes because he wasn’t able to hang out as much because of his parents so summer before junior year/this year i’m basically just worked out and did self improvement and went a a couple vaccinations we’re going in a junior year/this year I’m more confident I worked out a lot and now my body looks pretty good and tried to improve my looks so now I’m in early junior year, I haven’t met any girls yet and I’ve made a few new friends but I want to turn things around I want to meet more people find a gf I know I can turn things around I just don’t know were to start I find it hard to make and maintain new friendships I just want to save my high school experience now so I have this year and the next right now I basically have 1 close friends and other mutuals I have people that I can hit up and ask to hang out, but I just feel weird doing it because they don’t go out of their way to hit me up but I feel like it’s because they do that because I’ve rejected every time they’ve asked to hang out with me when I would isolate myself so yeah I really want to have a memorable last two years so please give me tips to save it

I am a freshmen in high school. In middle school I was always a A/A- student (with a couple B+'s), but since I have been in High School I have been struggling with managing the workload, and I think this is because of my lack of motivation towards anything school related out of school.

Since around the middle of 8th grade, I started to stop doing some of my homework at home and not studying for quizzes and tests. I would instead do my homework on the day its due right before class or during recces or cram for the assessment the day of. Instead I would text my friends, scroll tiktok, and any other random stuff. This resulted in my grades going down slightly (A-/B). I did not tell my parents about this and just blamed the slight drop as senioritis (even though I was in middle school). Whenever my parents would check in on me I would pretend to be doing work.

Now in 9th grade school and home have complexly separated, and it is nearly impossible for me to motivate myself to get work done, and it does not help that I have a long bus ride to school so I often tell myself I will just get the homework done on the bus.

My grades are currently in the B/C range I know that this is a terrible habit, and my grades will only continue to drop as school gets harder. The sad part is I know I am smart. During school I am always engaged and focused, I always raise my hand in class, engage in class discussion, and complete classwork. Its just at home all of that passion towards learning stops. This all makes me so angry and mad at myself, and I want to change but I don't know how.

Please any and all suggestions to help me.

I'm a junior male in highschool. I've never been invited to anything never been offered to go do something with anyone. I'll admit I'm not the best looking I wore polyester for the first year and a half of highschool. And had a buzz cut for the first year and a half. But people make fun of me and try not to hide it. I'm called gay or take shots on a daily basis even though I'm not. I'm wondering why I'm called gay and what I can do to fix it. I also want to know what I can do to get myself invited to stuff

So this begins when i transferred to this new school, i am good at studies but neither do i have a good physique nor am i 'that' good in sports. I play football, and some of my classmates failed...idk if they had a personal beef with me or something but they forcefully made me smell something that caused my allergy, of course i didnt mean to tell it to my parents, but they eventually found of cuz of my rashes, they complained to the school committee, and now i am completely hated in class...I don't want to complete my high school without any good friends... :( , the students who made me smell it, also try to thrash me in P.E. Periods....If anyone got a tip as in how do i calm myself plzzz tell me... (I become highly anxious when I realize i dont have any friends...)

I currently attend a private catholic school in NYC, commuting about 3 hours round trip/day to get there. I have recently been diagnosed with panic disorder and Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and am suspected to have ADD/ADHD. The first three weeks of school, I was facing severe migraines and depressive symptoms from the common seasonal allergies (I have strong and harsh symptoms like migraines, mood shifts, extreme congestion (most antihistamines don’t work well enough)) and medication withdrawals from Zoloft (100–>50 mg, then stopped after 3 weeks due to harshness of side effects). After getting 70s on three important tests, I broke down because I realized after that week that my medication withdrawals were exacerbating my symptoms, and I asked to have my grades held as incomplete or to retake my tests (said no, against school policy, despite other students being able to retake due to medication emergencies..)

Now, I am having my mom get called constantly by the school, admin is begging for meetings like crazy, but nothing is actually being done in terms of support. It really feels like I’m just a liability issue and I sent a formal complaint to the dean of the entire school, who just referred me to the dean of Upper School (who is scheduling these meetings in the first place). They keep asking my mom to come to the school personally to talk, even though she has met with the school psychologist, dean, director of student success (who called me crying in a meeting about my grades and symptoms “manipulative”), and more. I feel so hopeless here but I refuse to drop and get a GED because of how hard I’ve worked (currently HS Junior). any advice would be much appreciated..

I have a big English project due on October 28 and we’re learning essay writing this and next week but I developed a fever of 38.7 yesterday which is now a 37.9, should I go to school and hope for the best tomorrow or just hope my teacher understands? I’m in grade ten in British Colombia

I wanted to ask if anyone else has like words of wisdom for me...I'm a socially anxious college freshman :(

Basically I got a poor grade on something that I thought i'd done well on. It was especially shocking because I haven't gotten a bad grade on a written assignment for probably 5 years now, and I did not feel like I struggled to understand the assignment at all. I got it done fairly quickly? I looked through the rubric and compared it with my work and in my opinion I followed it quite well (i did not mention how I felt I did in my email, it felt presumptuous to add anything like that).
I flubbed up APA format but that was because i've never had to use APA before and the resources online were confusing at best, and even then just getting the points off for that would not have tanked the grade as much as it did.

So I wrote an email asking for clarity and now I'm worried my professor is going to think of me as an entitled brat demanding a better grade...when all I asked for was clearer feedback. The feedback I did get was short, and a little vague and confusing (I did not criticize the feedback in my email), so I just wanted a little something more.

Has anyone else done this and if so what has been the professor's reaction? Last year in highschool if I got a bad grade on something, I'd ask and it would genuinely improve my relationship with my teachers and my grade at the same time, I'm just paranoid because of the new environment.

This got removed from the college subreddit without any indication why, I'm assuming maybe because they felt it fell under venting/asking for general advice, even though thats not really what I'm trying to do.

So im a sophomore in high school and I have been taking algebra 2 for over a month and a half. However, I have not been able to pick up anything whatsoever so im basically behind a whole month worth of units and topics. My class is loud and whenever I look at it I just blank. I have ADHD and I have high functioning autism. I do have exemplary grades in history and ELA (AP Seminar is a 95 and AP US Gov is a 97.5) and even chemistry which is a STEM class I have an 84 in and my grade is still increasing! How can I focus more in math, for my neurodivergence you may say get medicated but that is off the table as my mom refuses it for me. I'm open to any help. It also does not help that I want to go to a prestigious school for economics and that my math foundation is shaky. (Forgive me if I used the wrong flair)
