OK

I dislike school for different reasons. I can't comprehend complex material and my attention span is low. I'm not meant for school. It doesn't help they force you to wake up at 5 and be there at 7. That's unacceptable.

Just lay low and avoid the popular kids and relish on the fact that they will all be failures. Failing their dreams and getting pregnant before their ready. It happens.
 
It's true that school isn't meant for everyone.

I personally love school for the learning. I love to learn and knowledge is the greatest power.
The people in my school weren't bad either, I liked almost everyone.
Then again, I come from a small town with a population of 1,000 and an even smaller school size.
We all knew each other and we got along, for the most part. I couldn't stand most of the teachers, though.

I honestly think it's the government's involvement. I had to attend probation one year because I got dreadfully ill and missed about two weeks. Yep, I had a doctor's note for every day. Yep, they still counted those absences unexcused. Yep, I had to go to probation with the potheads/drop outs and thugs, attend court AND do community service. I have a burning hatred for the government. They need to stop poking their noses into our ****. They slap a number on our faces and say they force us to go for the better of society. That's bull****. SORRY, RANT OVER.

Like I said, school isn't for everyone. Sitting in a classroom for 8 hours a day isn't healthy; mentally and physically. Especially for children who literally cannot do it. Yes, I know there's "special" things to help them, but that isn't right either. I take my sister to school a lot in the mornings and I see 10-12 year old girls wearing booty shorts... the teachers do nothing. All they do is text and "date?" other people when they should be focusing on their intelligence. Unfortunately, this is not caused by school, but by public media. GETTING OFF TRACK AGAIN. Point is, there's a few things why school is corrupt (ANY school) and a few things why school is definitely needed. I never said once in my life that I wasn't thankful for school.

REGARDLESS, all you can really do is avoid the people as much as possible. It makes you want to curl up in a ball and just question the world, seeing all those people like that, right? I know how you feel. Don't give up, you only got a few more years to go! c:
 
I don't know about you guys, but here in Canada, I love school. People just generally get along. I feel that if everyone is a stoner, you're not looking in the right places. In my school of about 1800, people in the same grade generally get along (I'm in Grade 11). I enjoy my teachers, friends, and my only real inconvenience is the Grade 9s who don't know how to walk in the hallway.

Yeah it's not bad but we some teachers really suck, and there are a lot of herb smokers too. If it's not weed it's getting drunk every weekend.

I agree that school can be a huge inconvenience when you don't actually feel like you're learning anything significant or when your deprived of your learning by other students. Just hang in there, or you could always just bomb the school.
 
I actually go to a pretty prestigious school.
As much as I love school life, I'd really like to get more time to enjoy my teenhood.
We have exam finals starting in grade 8, and we get a huge truckload of homework, projects, assignments from each class. Not to mention many nights of stressful memorizing and cramming. (haha procrastination)

As an overall school is o.k.
The fact that the fun and work load balances out is pretty good :)
 
I dropped out 3 years ago. I still do different courses from home in things that I'm interested in (art, dog grooming, etc)

School isn't for everyone, but I still think going to school, even just for primary school, can teach you a lot socially, and obviously give you the groundwork you need to learn things on your own. All in all, the system doesn't always work, but even if it didn't work for me in the traditional sense, going to school taught me to respect others and that everyone is different in what they can and cannot do.

There is not one more thing in my entire life I hate more than school. When I'm there, my voice and dignity are lost; having to cater to the desires of a corrupt government and the many puppets within. On top of this, the "students" and "teachers" are the most horrible people I've ever met in my entire life.

Trust me. It gets worse. Much. Much. Worse.

You just truly have no idea yet.

Also... as a note :: I enjoyed highschool and that sort of thing because home life wasn't the greatest.
So. School, despite even getting bullied by teachers, was a breath of fresh air.
I mean... at school I didn't need to have a hatchet ((small axe for those of you who don't know what that is)) under my pillow.
 
I never actually despised the idea of learning things via schools. Parents were always the ones who sent you guys to school, because they never have time to teach you about everything you need to know before you can truly start your life. However, all of the schools are more along the lines of "getting the job done", so the execution isn't exactly thrilling to hear.

The literature-oriented side is what irks me the most. Don't get me wrong, I completely understand I need to read, write and communicate properly so everyone can understand me. But when it goes too far, it does taste sour for my tongue.
Although Qu?bec's educational system is generally more lenient than in the other countries, it has a major flaw that makes transitioning to Cegeps (sort like of college) very jarring. The secondary schools (basically high schools) never properly prepared us to handle post-secondary studying. One of the most glaring issues is how late we were taught about literary analysis. None of the students from any secondary school can partake the class until they reach to a cegep. And by the time they finally do, they tend to hit hard on the brick wall when it comes to adapting to that class.
Any literary analysis asks you to analyze said books like a nerd, the teachers are crazily finicky about the grammar and you'll feel very limited on what you can write for the text. It's almost like you must absolutely master the grammar for said language if you want to accurately convey the ideas conveyed by the works. Personally, I hate on how often I had to stop reading a book to fully comprehend the intricacies from every sentence. By that, I meant that you have to read extremely carefully or else you might miss important details that may potentially cripple your reading comprehension needed for writing a good enough literary analysis. When you see that some cegeps have half of the first semester students failing the class, there's definitely a problem on the educational system.
For me, literary analysis is so laborious it made me hate reading books, and my reading problem only makes it much worse than it should be. Is that hard for any school to not entirely relying on books as source material? Since secondary schools are better suited to make us explore what kind of career we'd like to head, why not relegating that kind of literature in there instead of cegep? Do we even need that while I'm looking for a IT job? It won't ever involve literature crap! Why were they insisting on it anyway? Schools really need to get on with the times!
 
School is life, school is paradise, there's no place like school, it's absolutely amazing, and all the things you learn like wauw, I love it!
(obvious sarcasm is obvious)
 
Hated school went to a ghetto school with ghetto people they were really shallow and rude.Teachers didn't care about you and would do nothing to discipline or make the kids disrupting the class be quite.And by the time I realized that peoples opinions about me didn't matter it was too late because I'd spent most of my time caring about what they thought of me instead of getting good grade... :\
