Re: School- What do you think?

Enjoy school whilst you can - because if you think school is a hard day, wait until you see what Jobs are like...

It's hard to enjoy either.

Besides, at least you get paid to go to work and can choose what you get into.


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Re: School- What do you think?

As a high schooler in the eighth grade (yeah, my school is 8-12 grade), I think that school is one of the most important parts of our lives.  I think getting good grades is important too.  I got all A's on my report cards from 2nd grade to 6th.  Sorry, I sounded like a braggart on that last sentence.   smile

Re: School- What do you think?

I think that school is at least something to do.  If you just stayed at home you would get bored.  Unless you had a job, you'd probably be sitting at home 24/7 watching repeat T.V. shows and buying new video games every day.  I do pretty well at school (but i only have good friday and easter monday for break!)  and still can't believe that people can get "U"s in my language arts class.

The point is that I want to know your opinion of school. What do you think?

All and all, it's just another brick in the wall.

We do need education!  At least, I know I do.  I want to be a computer engineer and a novelist someday, and I'll need school if I'm going to do that.

Re: School- What do you think?

school itself is both bad and good, in general the school is **** in america, half teachers at my school probably smoke pot and usually are pretty bad at teaching whatever class, also the whole school system of how it works is stupid too, going to school at 8AM is just too early, less sleep causes a lot of bad factors, also there is a point where some classes are pointless, of course the basics in learning such as basic mathematics, english grammar, and history/social studies are the only necessities, though after that it really should be what classes you want to take on pursuing what you want to do

Re: School- What do you think?

I liked school, but we had the best librarian in the world who got a different job

(she told kids about Scratch after I told her and she's currently trying to get me to do classes on Scratch!)

and we are left with the worst librarian ever.

(The old one liked mmos!)


hey kiddoes i'm back

Sounds like my old elementary school.  We didn't do anything until nine.

8AM is early?

I call 6:45 waking up late.  tongue

Around what area do you live? Just the state. I don't want any closer. Just curious.

I actually am a bit of a nerd, I go to the the lowest school in the area with a 945/1000 passing rate.

Ouch.
