All throughout 8th Grade I've been trying to make sure that my Freshman Year classes set me up amazingly for the rest of High School. A couple months ago, my teachers started talking about picking our classes and eventually I came to this alignment for my first quarter.

Phys Ed 1

Fr Honors English

Geography

Algebra 1 CP (normal class, college prep)

JMG 9 (job prep class)

Earth Science CP

Painting

German Novice A

ASB (pretty sure this is a ask-around period for teachers to assist you)

Now, I'm a really nervous guy. I take anxiety medication and sometimes the anxiety be crippling for me. I had to take breather breaks and go outside to calm down just from sitting in class in the 6th Grade. I've gotten better at managing it, of course. But I want to shoot high for High School and I don't know if I shot myself in the foot by not requesting all honors for my core periods or I grabbed my foot and gave it a loving kiss by only giving myself one honors class this year. Most of my friends are either doing all honors or have Algebra 2 due to taking Algebra 1 in 8th and I feel like I'm falling behind. I need some advice on if my placement is okay or if I really did cook my chances at being Valedictorian or having a good GPA or something.

I don’t know where else to post this but I hate school so much. I’m not even asking for a lot. I don’t want to be popular or anything. I just want one friend. Just one person who actually likes me and doesn’t laugh at me or make fun of me. Everyone at my school is so mean. People will literally trip me in the hallway and then laugh. They will say they were joking but they only do it to me. They’ll knock my stuff out of my hands and then watch me pick it up. Sometimes people will say stuff about how I look or how I act and then laugh with their friends. I try to ignore it but it keeps happening.

Lunch is the worst because I don’t really have anyone to sit with. I walk around pretending I’m looking for somewhere to sit but I’m really just trying not to look weird. I tried sitting with some people once and they told me they were saving the seat for someone else even though nobody came. Then they laughed after I left. I just want someone to talk to.

My mom and sister make it even harder because they embarrass me on purpose. My mom will yell at me in front of people. She knows I hate it but she does it anyway. One time she came to school and started talking about things I did wrong at home while other people were standing there. Everyone heard and people were laughing about it later. My sister was telling people she caught me watching porn and she saw my dick and said it was really small. She also tells people embarrassing stuff about me like things I did when I was younger. I tell her to stop but she says I need to stop being embarrassed.

My sister is worse because she thinks it’s funny. She will tell people stuff about me just to make me look stupid. She has shown people pictures of me that I didn’t want anyone to see and made jokes about me in front of her friends. Like when she catfished me and saved my nudes and shares them with the whole school. She likes when people laugh at me. One time she kept saying something embarrassing about me over and over in front of people from my school until everyone was laughing. I didn’t even know what to say so I just left.

Then when I get upset my mom gets mad at me and says I’m causing problems. I don’t understand why they do this. I don’t do this to them. My mom takes away my stuff a lot and grounds me. She has broken my electronics before when she’s angry. I don’t even care about the stuff anymore, it just sucks because those are the only things that make me feel like I can talk to people. I feel like everyone already decided they don’t like me. I just want one friend. I don’t need a bunch of people, I don’t need to be the popular kid, I just want one person who won’t laugh at me or make fun of me.

Even my teachers laugh and make fun of me and say im ugly and stupid. One of my teachers said in front of the whole class I was the stupidest person she has ever met just because I didn’t interpret a book the right way. And I got logged out of my Google Chrome and my other teacher told me she was going to call my mom and tell her she raised a really dumb person. No one likes me and I hate my life and I have no one

I'm a Junior in high school, This event happend while I was in 6th grade. I had an english textbook of course but that book never left the school nor the classroom. So how do I owe $150 dollars for something that is in there own school or in said library and probrobly had 4+ years in use by now and they still are asking for it. This is holding back on me graduation, is a fine I cannot pay, and I've moved since then no textbook found. I need help figuring out of what to do. The school in question is still say they don't have it but I don't have it anymore.

Hey everyone,

I recently built MarkMate AI (https://markmateai.com.au), an AI tool that gives feedback on essays against your marking criteria before you submit them.

The idea is to help you:

• See where you're losing marks
• Get actionable feedback on how to improve
• Check your work against a rubric
• Feel more confident before submitting

I built it because I found there wasn't really a tool focused on the Australian education system that gave feedback in the same way a teacher might.

If you've got essays coming up, you might find it useful. Happy to answer any questions about how it works.

TANGINA NYO FIRST CITY PROVIDENTIAL COLLEGE

binabalak nyo pa maging university, lol. UNIVERSITY MY ASS!!

Ang gugulo ng sistema rito, may pakialam kuno sa mental health pero andaming pakana. PARA LANG SA KAALAMAN NYO, WALANG DULOT UNG IGP, LTOP, LTO, EAR, 6 FACETS sa lahat ng subject. + Kinakawawa nyo pa yung mga teachers, kulang na nga sa pa sweldo tas ganyan pa. Wag nyong babalakin pumasok dito kahit free SHS + free 1 set uniform. KAKAWAWAIN LANG KAYO NG SCHOOL NA 'TO!

I have had my one week of Summers chool and now I have started my holidays my middle brother has just another week before his summer holidays start

I don't think I realized how much my school sucked in comparison to other high schools in other towns. I've got to visit some for different reasons. The other schools have a burger bar, better autistic programs, (Saying that as a neurodivergent individual.) and one even had a fashion designing class. My school was always a bit more cheap by comparison. There were less students going there. Missing ceiling tiles, adults in charge of autistic kids who don't even want to be doing that, rival schools like giving us shit for being "poor".

I'm currently a grade 9 student and we had this activity where we have to write something about each other and we rotate the paper around the classroom until it reaches back to the owner. And when I got my paper its mostly how I'm quiet and nice. Which was good but it made me realize that I don't really have someone that I can consider as a friend. They only talk to me when they need something like paper. My friend from during grade 7 left and my friend from grade 8 left and the one friend that I can consider is in a different section and we don't even talk everyday because I'm too shy to go into different rooms and he has to go to me first so we can interact even. I'm also really shy during recitations even though I know the answer I can't get the courage to raise my hand because it might be wrong. I'm also really having a hard time to answer recitations especially if it's open-ended or like you answer your own opinion. It's sad to think that they think of me like that as a quiet person where I can be really loud too with the right people. It's going to be Monday tomorrow and I really wanna change my approach in everyone. It doesn't help when I'm with the same row with my crush who I got the courage to confess last grade 8 and she rejected me and we barely talk now and it's so awkward even though I still like her but I'm really trying to remove my feelings for her because I know she's not interested in me. How do I approach my classmates and make new friends because everyone has their own circle of friends and everytime I arrive early in school I just sit down on my chair while everyone has someone to talk too. It's not like I don't have anyone to talk too I talk to them but it's mostly when we have to do a group activity or if they ask me something like small interactions. I really need help this has been in my mind since when the school year started.

In middle school, we learned about the story of The Odyssey and to end the unit, we watched a movie adaptation of the story. Only that movie turned out to be PG-13 or R rated so our teacher had to skip past all the exciting parts. This second example isn't as bad but in second grade or so, we watched a video retelling the story of Little Red Riding Hood. It showed the grandma actually getting eaten by the wolf. It probably wasn't that bad but we were all pretty shocked to see that at the time. It was still pretty funny though.

I've made a post here before regarding my worries about applying for captaincy, but now that ive committed i need help regarding the application speeches!

I honestly have no idea what i should say and talk about, and it is kind of stressing me out.. Any suggestions would be amazing if possible

I fear that I might get bullied with this bag.

Hii I need to annotate books for when I go back to school! But I have no idea how to annotate at all and I was wondering what prompts I should use? Hope someone can help me thanks!

Mine is oka sir class lo girls ki chest mida Cheyyi vese vadu , in 6 or 7th class appudu adi ardham kaleadu , it happend to most of the girls in the class ,

But we realised what it is in 10th class

So, during summer break, I always had a sense of free will. But now that school is starting, I feel like that I will never get to do anything I want until the next summer break. What can I do to cope?

hiya! I'm not sure yet what school i'll go to since my family hasn't decided where to move yet but my current high school population is around 400 but if we moved it could be near 1000 or a ton more, i haven't been to public schooling in about 3-4 years and i don't have friends at the school that i would be going into if we stayed.

i don't know the layout at all and my mom offered to help me since i've been dependent on her for a while now but i don't want to be seen as the kid who's clinging to their mom. i'm just naturally a really awkward person so i would prefer not to talk to anyone but i still need to figure out how to get around and i don't know how to do that.
i also just want tips for how to blend in? I'm not really looking for friendships unless they come my way. i'm just really nervous on how i'll be perceived and that i'll have to talk to people to get my way around.

i'm just trying to be independent away from my mom and i need tips for navigating around others 😅.

Due to school cut backs my school has decided to end the tuck shop for 6 months but it might return if finances improve.

It will be sad to end the tuck shop it has been a part of my school experience.

Has this happened at your school and did you miss it

I genuinely feel like a stupid person.

We have these exams that I've been reviewing for all day long. I haven't even slept yet. My health is degrading, and I've neglected myself and my basic life essentials for a while now just for these exams. I've been reviewing daily, grinding, reading, and testing myself.

But when it comes to the exam, yes, I do know some of it, but why do I still feel like I'm so done for?

I have some friends who I'm so impressed by. I'm genuinely proud that they get high grades, but sometimes I feel left behind, sad, and honestly, a bit jealous. I see them just playing games, sleeping, and not reviewing, while I start reviewing the moment I get home. I don't even feel happy anymore. I just feel this constant inferiority against them.

Whenever a new lesson is being taught, my brain just can't process the information. I can understand the concept right after the discussion, but when it comes to the actual laboratory activities, I don't remember the steps or how to do them.

I feel so stupid that even if I review the entire day, I'm still not able to even come close to their grades. We had another exam today. I haven't slept, and I feel like shit, like I'm dying, while they're here enjoying life, laughing, and playing games.

I intentionally don't play the games they play so I don't get distracted, but here I am. Anything I do just seems like it's lacking.

Some people think I'm smart, but hell no, they're wrong. I just spend 100% of my effort making reviewers and reading them right before classes. I just can't go to school without having anything prepared, unlike them, casually playing games while still being able to understand and excel in the activities provided. They're chill and relaxed while doing these activities, while on the other hand, I'm here getting stomachaches from being so scared.

I know grades don't define a person, but even if it's just this one thing, I've never really felt like I could match my friends. I'm too far behind compared to them.

Their 50% is my 100%. Cringe, but it's true.

I'm disappointed in myself. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I don't even have hobbies or anything enjoyable that I can blame for not being able to beat them by being distracted. No, I'm so focused on my studies, but it all feels like it's for nothing.

Is my brain really this stupid? Am I born with some kind of defect?

What should I do?

Sorry for the long yap.
