Thats an interesting question for her school, that would suck if they did, becuase Im not good at the sports that they have. Lol ;D Basketball isn't my sport, usualy.

Nabooru

They do at some schools.

JDog

Oh, that sucks, Im not going to those schools, why do some schools concider sports as a class?

Nabooru

I dont know I think its stupid.

JDog

Me too, because some kids arn't athletic, and then they don't do well, and then would fail those classes, and then do it again, and again, and again, and again, and, I think you get the point. Lol.

Nabooru

Well they are elective I think.

I'll be a senior at my school. I start in about a week, and my schedule is a little missed up. We go by 4 blocks per semester and I actually have to take spanish III before Spanish II, which is resp. 1st and 2nd semesters.

School where I am is a total joke, most of the people are really retarded and the teachers will sometimes give the students a 20 or 30 point curve, or drop the test scores entirely. That sorta sucks, because I usually get the highest scores in my classes. And last year, our US history class which was honors was retarded, we barely did any work in the textbook, so all we had was 'cheat sheets' which are read: cheap. I always got a 90 at least on those tests, but everyone else would fail, and the teacher would just drop the grades. THAT SUCKED! I wanted to get a higher gpa from that class, but the teacher always gave me 95's for the six week grades. Whore  that lady was.

This year, most of the good teachers are leaving, which is a total loss.

I have these classes:
1. Spanish III
2. AP Calculus
3. AP ENglish
4. Hon. Physics

1. AP Calculus
2. AP English
3. Art IV (Teacher left, but she was stupid anyway)
4. Spanish II

JDog

Wow, that sucks, all of the good teachers at mine and mags except for Mr gusler are leaving, who am I suppose to talk football with durning the time we are suppose to be learning? :( Poor mr parker, and mr gerber(A cool teacher) is moving to Ohio to teach, WHY is he leaving, he was the only reason I liked math, now, I don't know, and mr ross will be teaching middle school(Which I think is stupid because I think he is suppose to be teaching chemistry and what not) Mags would know that one, wow, I have never written that much of a speach before, Lol

Nabooru

lol in drama we have to do a monolouge in drama amd I am not fabulous at those yet. I hate my english teacher though. She is like strict and very litaturized but really doesnt care about us its weird. And my math teacher isnt great.

JDog

I hate my english teacher too, and she hates me, and I think she could care less about half of us. >:( That just tells how good of a teacher she is not.

darkphantomime

Don't I know it? I had AP chem last year with a very good teacher. Still failed the AP Test though, coulda passed if I had more time for that class :'(

THat teacher's retired now, which sorta sucks. Only one person signed up for AP Chem. so they decided to drop that class, which is EXTREMELY RETARDED.

I've also been in OSS (True suspension) for 6 days in the past two years. I may be smart, but sometimes I'll willingly break the rules because they are stupid. Like uniforms. I tried to sneak past those guys with a sweater on, didn't work forever though.  :'( :'(

But hey, at least I got a 4.49 gpa and am 4th in my class!

JDog

Oh, that freakin sucks. Is that class required?

darkphantomime

Well, no, but it was much easier than the other AP science: AP Biology. NOw Biology is all that's left.

That teacher was the head of the science dept. And he taught chemistry, which is required. He was a very good teacher too, explaining things thoroughly and using everyday examples. One of the truly good teachers at Anson High.

I got the highest scores in the following end of course tests:
Chemistry
Physical Science
US history (only like a handful passed, and I was the only one to make a 4 on the scale)
Precalculus (not state test)

2nd highest:
Geometry
Algebra I
Algebra II
English I (97)

There are some others, but I can't remember right now.

JDog

The only person that got a reward in english from my class, was magmarfire, which tells that she isn't very good, he is so smart compared to some of us in my class. My other friend is ususaly getting high grades in english, but not this year, he did very bad because she isn't very good, I ususaly get highs scores in english too, but because her the past years, I sucked because she is so boring and I can't concintrate(Spelled wrong) school is going to be tough this year. I made the honor roll 4 times in a row in english untill I went into her class, and squeked out a d-. which is almost failing.
