I hate those teachers that think your the next Albert Einstein and think they are the only teacher giving HW. I also hate classes that are a pointless jumble of all the classes. I have something called a success class were we learn how to be "successful" so far we have done Math, LA and a webquest in the class and I don't feel any more successful. I love science class this year. Right now we are doing a unit on static electricity and my teacher brought in a Van de Graaf machine or wateva and i love getting shocked.

Mostly not, it takes away time, you learn stuff you will probably never use, in gym you get extreme pain, you get homework
the only good thing is that you can play outside and get lunch thats (usually) better then your parents. so mostly NO.

Well, school is okay, because I get to hang out with my friends. What i don't like about school is all the work (both schoolwork and homework).

As I am currently in 8th grade, math is actually becoming a challenge for me. As Calvin (from Calvin and Hobbes) said:
"All the emphasis on right answers makes me feel bad when I get them wrong."

So, I don't like that very much.

most of the stuff you'll never need use is just an exercise to teach you how to think

school isnt always fun, but its really important.. my favorite class is pre calculus

School is OK, I get to hang out with all my friends and stuff, but i hate the excess homework. A little is fine to reinforce what we learned, but honestly, 60+ frickin problems that take anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes to solve? Just cause you had a bad day Mr. Teach, doesn't mean bore us to death!

One thing that I hate is that the people chat all the time during all the classes nonstop. That is annoying and it is disrespectful with the teachers. Some of my teachers get mad with this and once my math teacher put 11 people out of his class

Yeah, I hate that too, unless it is the "dreaded" class as every student calls it, then it is the most productive thing (no joke, you don't do crap in that class!). One time my English teach sent out 18 students; two suspended, 15 got detention, and one was sent out on mistake so no punishment...

Don't you hate that you can not open your locker from the inside?


I don't even have a locker because there are just few lockers in my school so I bring all the stuff from home.

Last week my math teacher send us not a big homework but it had almost impossible questions. I made the easy questions at school and I was going o finish the harder ones at home. I spent my afternoon form 2 p.m to 6 p.m doing 3 questions. And it was about a thing he didn't explain yet.

One time my English teach sent out 18 students;


Wow, that is a lot of people. My English teacher is just an idiot that can't control his class so we talk a lot. He has no guts to put anyone out of his class.

My favorite teacher is the Portuguese one because he makes jokes all the time during his classes and me and him make a "gum deal". When I have gum, I give him and when he has gum, he gives me =).

Very nice.

Well, I put up nicely with all the disorder around me. I haven't been victimized in years, and I'm grateful for that. Which reminds me, I could probably move schools sometime.

I don't have a locker. I'm quite sure one of the reasons that's so is theft.

And you think that at my school it is allowed?? All the students chew gum but some boring teachers don't let us do it but most of them allow it.

In my country it is not an obligation but I have Religion classes. I don't know why we call it religion, because most of the things we learn have nothing to do with religion. And my teacher can not make us like his subject so we don't respect him. In his tests, some guys write "because God is above everything" as all the answers. It is quite stupid, because most of the answers are in the texts in the test.

I am in my third year of college and I have always loved school. I mean, there have been times when I hate parts of it, but overall I love it.
Lately I hate everything, but that's a different story. >.>

School is great for socializing and learning new things.

I don't have many dislikes towards school. Besides at my actual school they've shortened the times of each class and have made more periods during the day. Last year we had four a day - each class was an hour and a half. Blue day and Red day, by that I mean on blue day there were four classes, red day, there were four more classes.

This yeah, they've taken that out and put in 10 periods for a day and each class is only around 30-45 minutes long. Really? How are we students supposed to learn in that time period?

It's why most of the time I choose to do the work on my laptop.

My study hall last year was great. I got to go into the computer room and just play flash games.
We didn't even have to study.

Sometimes though when we would get a substitute teacher because the original teacher was ill, she made us just do work.

There was no real point in study hall since I get all my work completed in class or at the library.
