They didn't give us school handbooks this year because our school district can't pay for textbooks, much less calendars or the rules in writing, and refuses to give our teachers a contract and reduces their pay to less than the lowest entry level salaries in the state. . . .But they can, of course, afford to buy the office persons fancy new computers and give the administrators a 10% raise. My school obviously rocks.
hah, I've got a fucking pop-up book compared to the shit you guys have. anyways, here's one. If you're late, you miss class, completely, and you have to sit in a room in total silence. We can't even read. We've got cameras on every corner, and lunch is only 20 mins long, in order to minimize the amount of time we have to riot. We get no bathroom breaks, so we have to go between classes(yet if we're late we can't go to class at all). At my school, we have "words of the week". We are taught 3 words of each subject(reading, science, and math), and then we are expected to know these words. So our principle walks through the hall way and randomly points at kids: "what's the word of the week, kids!?!?!!!111" and if you don't know it, he fucking puts you in ISS. I love trying to talk to anyone of any position of power in that school too. They all hide deep in their lair, while we all run around in circles trying to get ahold of someone. Fuck this, I'm going to bed.
heh, I know. I can't even count how many times I ended up in structured lunch. I was always walking out into the hallway with a pen in my pocket and then some jerk of a teacher would be like "you obviously don't have permission since you are hiding it" it's like wtf? I forgot it was there. Apparently they were afraid of graffitti and thought that they were too dangerous.
They held a big assembly yesterday for parents and had a band and everything to make it look like it was a really good school... I think my school is one of the worst in the state. The principal is said to be seen "driving her mustang around town during school hours"
Well im off to school right now, but ill post mine when i get home...We have some rewelly stupid ones about liotering and smoking...
Back when I was in HS, the handbook specified that you were not allowed to bring guns, knives, or rakes to school... wtf?
Are you really from Alabama? Maybe it's a farm thing? Rakes could do some damage...someone probably used one at some point in time. That's how writing utensils were banned from our hallways, a girl stabbed a boy with her gel pen when he dumped her.
No, I'm from The Woodlands TX, a corporate owned master planned golf-centric city... no farms anywhere... Though the school district was based in conroe, a kind of redneck country town...
HAHAHAHA!!! omg. Some of these are outrageously funny.... And rakes are also banned in my school. It's a southern thing
My school is pretty good for rules, i ws reading them in psyisics, but there is a no loitering zone the city implimented around the school grounds and you could get suspended and fined for "congregating for any reason"...WTF? My principal is a weiner though...And on staff meeting day we only get a 40 min lunch, what happened to lunch HOUR? Last year, on staff meeting days, we had to do somehitng for .5 hours so we didn't get a 1.5 hour lunch, on time in december, they made us take our shoes and shuffled all the kids in to the gym for a "dance" and everyone was just pissed off...and if you left the school you would get in trouble...Also thaey had "Sting daze" where we missed a day of school to take part in programs that noone wanted to...all so the school could get more money, then they got audited...
jesus christ! so in math does 2+2=5? i mean siriously though, where the hell do you go to school? all the crazy shit that people are posting makes me wanna go give my principal a hug and a thanks. i mean dizzamn
^^yeah, its fucked up. What's even more fucked up... someone gave me a bad rep point for that post. Could you possibly tell me why, instead of just hiding behind your computer?
My School Rules. 1. Make a Learning Plan 2. Make Learning reports (in which I can say a sentence or write a book.. my choice) 3. Every week, do at least 25 hours of learning of any kind each week. Such as a philosophical conversation, a painting, a university course or a book (as long as you're learning--but you decide that).
my school was the sort you attended from the age of 4 until you were 18, it was girls only, religious and private. We had far too many rules to write down, but a few of my 'faves' were * Students were not permitted to bring their own cars to school, even if they parked them off school grounds. In special cases, a student would be allowed, but only if they were in the 7th form (i.e. last year of school) and obtained written permission from the headmistress. Futhermore, if you wanted to ride in a car driven by a student, even outside school hours, you had to get written permisison from her. Nank-y. * Only the 7th form were allowed on grass banks. The rest of the school had to stick to the flat bits of grass *Students were not to use vivid, whiteboard marker or twink, as these gave of noxious fumes that may have bothered others. * In winter you must not be seen outside school in just your uniform shirt or jersey - the uniform raincoat or blazer must be worn at all times. In summer shirtsleeves are permissable, but not just the jersey. Gym uniform (and that was hard core, we even had regulation P.E. shoes) must never be worn on public transport. Also, if you are under ten, you must wear your straw hat at all times, except during rain. *You must not eat or drink on the street whilst in uniform. During school hours, those in the lower school (ages 4 - 11) are not permitted coke, sweets or oranges, manderines or other citrus fruit. *There will be no horseplay in the corridors, students will not walk more than two abreast *All students will stand when a teacher and/or adult enters the room and stay standing until asked to sit. Also, all students must hold the door for the teacher and/or adult if they wish to come through. and it goes on and on.... i'm so glad I escaped.
At my school you could get Suspended or expelled for having an unauthorized inhaler. I wouldn't want to be the bitch who has athsma
