What's "school" ?

@harinezumikouken

It's a place where dreams die I think.

[Lady Seraphina]

I assume you were joking, but I personally think that teaching students to feel guilty about who they are and where they come from is a big problem.

@Lugubrious

The education system is royally fucked. Near as I can tell it is designed to make the smart kids feel like they should be less intelligent, make the... less advanced kids feel like they are failures and teach the middle of the road kids things they already know. Does that sound constructive to you?

[Crimmy]

Is this is the American school system at work, or did you guys just go to some really shitty schools?

Ohh...

Canadian school systems, though if we can't get it right up here I can't imagine the US is doing any better.

Australia's doing pretty alright, so I guess you guys got some bad luck.

@Crimmy

You are so fucking lucky. The only class in my entire school that had a teacher who made me want to try in his class was drama. Ever other teacher basically had me thinking that if I dropped out of high school I could probably do something better than them. Not strictly true but from there teaching method you'd think they been working at MacDonalds for forty years.

[Lugubrious]

It might be just me, but I've got no complaints with my own education past middle school. The problem I spoke of is just something of which I am aware. I've had quite a few teachers I really enjoyed, particularly in my last two years of high school.

@Lugubrious

You are so lucky, the management in my school was more concerned with having a good looking record and reputation than it was the mental, physical or educational state of any of the students.

[Ryonara]

My education was alright, but the environment was shit. I remember kids coming in smelling like weed and some which obviously just came back from a brawl. But that's what I get for going to school in the boonies.

[harinezumikouken]

Seriously. What's this "school" y'all keep talking about?

[Ryonara]

@harinezumikouken

It's where you put kids to teach them about society and turn them into the reason your country is doing so horribly.

Ah. Okay.

[Onarax]

>Tmw you have to wonder if you're the only one in America with a good high-school experience.

[Ryonara]

@Onarax

Oh we talking highschool? I was talking middleschool. Like, 6th to 8th. Highschool was still shit, but it wasn't like middleschool so it's better by comparison.

In Canada we have Elementary K-7 or 8 depending on province then High School which is either 8 or 9 to 12.

At my school I had too many absences one semester so our vice principals solution was next semester to only give me my graduation required classes so that if I continued to have bad attendance it would only show two glaring marks on the schools record instead of five. The three classes he took away were the three that I got out of bed in the morning for, the ones that kept me sane, drama, cooking and physics.

Do I need to put on my internet therapist hat? Because you all are looking like nothing but a big mass of scar tissue at the moment.
