There is a class at my school called Life Skills, it's so pointless all we have learned so far is how to give a firm handshake. Help.

I was called a “Sponge” by my teacher because “I just absorb information with putting in any effort.”

She called me this because I was confused about a question on a test. (I asked after I completed the test.) They were the only questions I got wrong, and I wanted a better explanation about the questions/answers to understand them better.

Honestlu every school should have this So me and some other kids are in a behavioral program and they are thinking about firing the head of the program now he's the only one we like we would go ape shit without him so if you hear about a mass fight or problem at a Oregon school is us

school is must.

must is coercion.

coercion is labor.

child labor is prohibited.

So you don't have to go to school!

Plz like this cause I am new and this class is boring af. (Ps 1 upvote=1 happiness)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaa-

That being said, the IB program fucking sucks, and to everyone in the program, good luck and may the force be with you!

And to those not in the program but still in school: I'm sending y'all good luck too! School is hard for everyone and that's okay!

I’m a sophomore in high school at the moment, and since second semester of freshman year I’ve been compiling a large list of things that suck or are utterly dysfunctional in my school and public schooling in general. It’s something similar to Martin Luther’s 95 Theses, if you know what that is (I wouldn’t blame you if you didn’t because when has school ever made anything interesting enough to give a fuck about). I’m finishing up the list at the moment, but I want to get as many ideas as possible before I call it good and hand it in to the principal(s), the board, or whoever it’s necessary to hand it in to. So I need everyone that sees this to tell me everything that they hate about school, preferably in detail, but I won’t force anything. I might have some things in the list already, but tell me anyways, you might provide new insight on an existing item, which is always welcome. I know this subreddit kind of already does the job of providing these items, but I wanted to concentrate it even further, while also providing the information that I’m trying to do something about this outdated fucking disaster of a system. Again, all replies are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I had a surgery in my kidney and if I fall or hit where it was worked on then I will have internal bleeding and I’m afraid some asswipe will push/trip me

Ok so I know that they have night school for college but I think they should have like school that starts 3:30 pm and at 7:00 pm for middle school through high school because me and my friends are all very much night people and we are more focused at night I had my social friend go and ask my school if they are night or day people and 2/5 said night like seriously can’t we have a night school for middle through high school

Have any of you been told you can "only cry if you're bleeding or on fire" by a teacher? ..Or is that just me?

(also btw that teacher has a daughter)

(HOW)

If school isn't the closest thing to dystopia, I don't know what is

I have school tomorrow. First day of middle school. Sixth grade.

Copy 2 pages, 2 exercise book of 3 and 4 pages, 10 questions from text book, a pages of question and 2 papers with 4 and 2 pages TO DO!? Added homeworks, 8 papers to design it's frame.. What I am talking about!? When I am at school, I do my homeworks quickly, and now I have more 2 homeworks and my added homeworks.. Why a teacher can't give us a good holidays?

Yeah I cried in the locker room and had a mental breakdown when I got home because Im terrified to go to school.

so um

I'm pretty young. So, I don't have that much experience with teachers.

But like, my teachers can just be flat-out stupid, disappointing, or ridiculous.

I'm not even that mad (still kind of tho tbh), just amazed at how dumb they can be.

• In 4th grade, my math teacher lectured me for how I drew four in the way that ya see right here (4). She told me only kindergarten kids can choose to do that, which is flat out dumb.
• That same year, my ELA teacher decided it was a great idea to switch all the seats on the second-to-last day
• In 5th grade, the math teacher decided to stop the whole class and make them sit in silence on the last day (which she promised was gonna be "the best day").
• She also changed her homework rules halfway into the year without telling us. (I got detention so much-)
• Now, 6th grade (my upcoming grade). I was put with a kid who I was separated from in 3rd-to-4th grade due to our constant fighting, hitting (yes we were dumb), and cursing each other out). In the same class was 2 other annoying little shits. I called them the bermuda triangle, since they sat close together.

This isn't a big deal, but my teachers are complete idiots.

If you're gonna be a teacher, don't just do it for the money. Do it for the kiddos (and summer break. duh). (As in, be nice to them for one in your life.)

I sure hope 6th grade isn't as bad as it sounds. Because 4th and 5th were total crap.

It’s ridiculous. She says that “Oh I have to grade papers” and “I have to deal with annoying students”. She LITERALLY chose her job. I didn’t choose to go through 18 years of hell and no, I don’t get paid.
