Do/did you like School?

[Localonthe8s]

I hate school. I mean it's boring and all you do is to have your butt on the chair for 7-8 hours a day. But without an education, that would be worser then school. I have to get up early in the morning and come home exhausted from school.

But anyways, anyone here like school or not? Even if you're grown up, share your experiences.

The best answer for me would be sometimes. I liked school during my K-5 years, but once I got into middle school, school lost its luster. And, obviously, by the time I got to high school I ended up calling it quits. And while that wasn't a good decision, it was the right one.

High school is becoming too much for me. I don't know wether to drop out or not,

Don't drop out.

You have to be an idiot to drop out of school, no offense to those who have already.

I like school, because you see your friends on a daily bases, including weekends, haha...everything as of right now couldn't be better for me...other than having massive amounts of homework everyday, I'll take it.

I HATED K-5, but once i got into Jr. High and High School, I loved it (except for the big ammounts of homework).

I somewhat like school, but I hate the school I am at right now. Too many rude people, and it's overpacked (at least 2,300 students are in my school). :glare:

I want to go back to a PA school.

Don't drop out.

Agreed.Tough it out. It'll be worth it when its over.

Al, I'm not offended because I know you have a habit of running your mouth without having any clue what your talking about.

And, just so your clear, there are many good reasons for dropping out.

I like high school because it's challenging work. In middle school, I really didn't feel challenged. I don't like to do HUGE amounts of homework though. By huge, I mean like 1-2 hours of homework PER class.

Like the inability to graduate with your class for reasons beyond your control. I'll be damned if I'm working my ass off all those years to graduate with some other class. As you can see, that was why I dropped out. Other good reasons include being harassed/bullied in such a way that it makes it impossible for you to come to school and learn. We all have a right to learn in a safe and orderly school, and when that can't happen, its as good a reason as any to drop out and pursue an alternate means of earning a diploma. 

Need I say more, my furry friend?

I didn't mean to sound rude or anything. I was just curious. Isn't that the point of school? To work hard and get good grades? As for harrassment and bullying, i don't see why a visit to the principle couldnt fix that. But then again, maybe things have changed.

What decade did you go to school in? These days (since the 90's) a trip to the principle is about useless. IF your lucky enough to find the principle. Yes, the point of school is to work hard and get good grades, and IMO to graduate with those you began school with, not some class of strangers. Graduation, IMO, is much more meaningful with your own class.

I graduated in the early 90s...

Well maybe things were different in the 80's then. Obviously things weren't like they were in the mid-late nineties and early 00's when I was in my middle and high school years.
