After putting some thought into the status of our public school, and the intellectual presence of America on the world stage. I've come to realized than the majority of our problems could be solved with smarter kids and the best way to get smarter kids is to get a better public school system.

And now debate.

Hmm....my regular high school...people cussing left and right, people cheating left and right, people getting expelled left and right, people threatening you for answers, and most of all,
Getting done with your work, take a look around, and see everybody else not finished, this usually happens to me. Than I have the nice wait of an hour. (My periods are 82 minutes.) Because the rest of the class is still working, while I'm rotting in my chair.


Did you do an online school? Or have one of your parents teach you because const parents aren't even close to being able to teach you, the things you need to know to graduate. Also why couldn't they just send you to a different school..?

Wait a minute, how many periods does that Divine kid have in his day because that is ungodly long. In my high school, its only half that time and there are 8 periods in a day.

The real reason why I got pulled out of school was because of my friends. So don't even try to talk to me.



Oh, you mean private school, where I have to put on a school uniform? Not happening. Other than that, that's the only other school that isn't 45+Minutes away.
And I was taking online classes. A grade ahead of what the teachers at school were teaching. And I'm not reading The Magic Tree House either.

Uniforms aren't bad..? But that doesn't matter

Also I apologize if you took offence (which you did) I never tried to attack you I was just saying that even public school is better than home school when your parents teach you.

For example I dont have a cell phone and I'm the smartest kid in my class(I know im modest =P)


Cell phones are irrelevant in this scenario. Although a lot of kids text during class and it distracts them from the course, it's the teacher's or administrator's job to enforce any "No cellular devices" policies.

And honestly? I texted in class all the damn time and I still had a 4.0 all of senior year.

If you're a grade ahead of your highschool then I guess home schooling works for you. Keep it up then!

I like Independent Study because you get a week's worth of homework,and I finish it in three days,insted of five. I wish they did that at public schools,it would of saved me a lot of time over those past eight years.

Ever seen a modern day uniform? You know any pair of kackis and any polo you want? That's about 90% of the uniforms today.

Yeah, sometimes the public school system wants to make me spit nails on a nun though. They have too many flaws.

Thank god my school has no uniforms, but it does have a strict dress code it almost never enforces.

Private school uniforms are business suits for guys, and a skirt for chicks.

I'm not going to wear a business suit for 6 hours in a hot room.

I just do all my work in class and then do all my homework. For some reason my teachers get really P.O'ed at me for finishing all my classwork and homework. I've always gotten A's and for some reason they still have a problem with it. Stupid people, I don't think I'll ever understand them.

EVERY single private school in my county has a uniform of khakis and polo's I'm not sure where your getting the idea that you have to year a business suit or a skirt.
