It was his own fucking son. I still can't believe it. People at school are just acting like it's some story to go around telling. He was an incredible teacher who lost his life way too goddamn soon and people are using the story of his death as an entertaining lunch time conversation. What the hell is wrong with people.

like broooo i acc locked in so hard this quarter but she fr don’t give a shit bruh

like i’m actually JEALOUS of people whose parents give them money for As

bro she’s never proud of me for nothing. If i get bad grades she’ll yell at me, if i get good grades she’ll yell at me, she just yells at me no matter what bruh it sucks

It’s not edited yet and I just started the project, but I wanted to share some starting animations and basic movements! The circle is Timmy. He’s the nucleus of a cell and he’s gonna teach everyone about cells and such. This is also due in 6 days and I don’t know how I’m gonna animate this fast, but if I lock in and stay up late a few days, it should work out :)

High school grade 11 regent physics student. A month in school and the teacher has zero care at all for education, uses ai to create assignments, homework's, and exams. Barely knows shit himself. Just hands us a Chromebook and tells us to complete the ai generated assignments he creates with zero effort while he sits down and scrolls Instagram all period. Literally he's obsessed with AI, ranting about how "why the hell do something yourself when you can just use ai to do it" and complains how the school blocked AI on Chromebooks its actually ridiculous. I hate this class so much. How am I going to pass the regents what can I do? How can I teach myself physics? I'm really in a bad spot. I hate school.

So essentially what’s happening is that I’m in my sophomore year and we’re in the first quarter of the school year. Each quarter is a separate grading period and I got a 3.5 gpa. Unlike my freshman year where I maintained 4.0 the entire year. I’m honestly just scared and I’m not sure if I’m overreacting.

Keeping them lol-))EDIT: I keep getting asked why I’m so pale lol it’s because of a combination of conditions (bradycardia, severe anemia , asthma), and genetics, (the lighting isn’t helping lol)

Hello, I’m a current 10th grader taking ‘advanced classes’ at my High-school. I’ve integrated myself into taking these Honors-AP classes since second semester of 9th grade. Right now I’m barely scraping by with my current grades, I have a problem of only allowing myself to be told what to do, meaning I only study when a teacher hands out a pre-made study guide or when told to study a specific page or worksheet, etc. Which was the case in 9th grade but now in 10th I no longer have to luxury to have that. So, I’m wondering, what would be the most efficient way to study these courses when I’m done with my homework, or even completing homework more efficiently.

I do have trouble paying attention in 2/3 of my hardest classes, which is Honors Chem. & Honors Alg. 2, which in class I completely do not follow through of what is being taught and I often get extremely bored but come to find out when I self-study at home or doing homework I easily find the concepts easy. So, I’m also wondering on how I can fix that, maybe my sleep schedule is part to blame.

I’m solid at understanding concepts being taught in class and be able to develop it, but, my memory for that information is often short-term, so I’m asking what would be an efficient way to ‘train’ memory, if possible rather than having to put everything down in flash-cards.

I rarely self-study besides doing my assigned homework and even I rarely do that, and if I do it’s often half-assed or rushed to the last minute. I’ve honestly picked up some pretty bad habits and I’m worried that it’ll be too late or I’ll take in some pretty harsh consequences before truly changing and adapting to the new workload.

I did take geometry over the summer to take Honors. Alg 2 this year in which it may affect some pretty core concepts for that course. Overall, it’s my Quiz Average that’s bringing my grade down because I find these concepts harder to grasp thus i’ll need to self-study/do the homework deeply.

For Spanish, I do have a missing quiz in the grade book so after making it up I should have a guaranteed A.

For Financial Literacy, I often have motivation to do the coursework and most times turn it in a day late, but if I change my habits it should be relatively easy to bring it back up to an 95 average or above.

Overall, I definitely need to change my habits, which includes studying more, getting a better sleep schedule and motivation for all of the coursework I’m doing. That’s just my perspective of seeing things,

All I’m asking for is advice on how to study more efficiently and on what will work best to to improve my memory as well, down to the littlest details that can compound and eventually get me back on my feet again.

Thank you,
M. Thomas, Highschooler

I'm in musical theater, and so was my sister. Everyone in that class knew her, and loved her, and since I'm her little brother, everyone talks to me and loves me.

I'm not saying I dislike it, it's just that everyone wants to talk to me. It kinda feels like how everyone is overly nice to someone because they have a disability. I think they're trying to welcome me to the school but I don't know.

Hi!! Freshman here. I don't really know what to title this post, but I'll just get into it. I'm not in band, choir, or in any sports. I've never done any of those types of activities. I have severe social anxiety, and I would hate to have to preform in front of people. But, I have been in book club, writers club, art club, and theater crewduring my elementary and middle school years. Currently I am only in the crew section of theater, which I do not enjoy. However, im starting to worry that not participating in these "competive/active" activities are going to stunt me later in life. Is this a realistic worry? To continue with this, im also not in a gym class currently. I'm trying to work out a plan that will allow me to skip this class entirely. That is basically all the input I have for this subject, any thoughts? Sorry for the rambling, this has been on my mind for many years, and I do not have many friends to discuss with.

It's awful. I find Americans very strange and I'm black in a mostly white town even though there's lots of black kids that I see in the hall I'm the only one in five out of six of my classes,for the most part no one speaks to me and some kids are very mean to me and don't treat me very well.

It feels like I'm on an alien planet where everyone acts very weird. People in America are very miserable it seems and I don't know what to do to make more friends.

I'm feeling super depressed and don't feel like myself,no one sits with me during lunch and everyone already has friend groups as I'm in junior year.

What do I do?

So i have been thinking about scheduling for next year and here is my thoughts and i want to know if this is too ambitious

(Not in order)
Ap physics 1 and 2(one class)
Trig/precalc
Ap world history
Honor engineering robotics 1 half of the year
Honor engineering physics the other half
Honors english
Intro to programming python one half of year
Personal finance the other half
Honors chemistry

This is what i want to do but it kinda feels like it would be hard, im pretty passionate about these types of classes so i think i could keep good grades but is the workload too much? My math background is honors geometry algebra 1 and 2 im also taking a intro to coding class this year we touch up on python

Even more specific than Math

Last year was a great year with good gpa, lots of activities, and plenty of free time to do things that I like to do. However, this year just seems to be failure after failure. I became extremely anxious about everything, leading to a drop in grades (like getting a 79 on a history essay and consistent 80s in math). This just makes me more anxious and demotivated and causes my performance to drop even more, and I don’t feel like doing anything anymore even stuff outside of school. I went from the mindset of wanting to get into an ivy to being happy if I just got into my state school.

Has anyone else experienced this sophomore year, and does anyone have tips for getting out of this trap? Is there any way to save my application from these heavy hits?

Hello, I’m in a pickle of whether I should take AP Statistics or AP Pre-Calculus over the summer to get ahead. But, from what I heard AP Statistics is a solid, easy AP in which would fit perfect for my Junior class schedule since it could replace my spanish class which I would no longer need to take or should I go ahead and self-study Pre-Calculus now so that during the summer It’ll act as a buffer for the enhanced pace of learning AP Pre-Calculus over the summer.

Just a little bit curious about this — thanks.

Im so pissed about ts. In the cafeteria at my school they removed the doors to the bathrooms entirely. I personally dont use the school bathrooms but most people do and I know some girls even change in there for sports practice. What makes it worse is the fact the stall gaps are disgustingly large. Like see someone taking a shit from the outside with the stall door closed large. Even though we still have stall doors this is a huge breach of privacy and not to mention how unsafe it is. Unfortunately it isnt technically breaking any rules so theres nothing we can do. Super fucked.

?? Yes or no

14m. like i have social anxiety but like when i try talking to new people its like im ignored and in my school, it like genuinely only happens to me. im introverted but when i try to socialize i get ignored.

i live in the south, and so naturally there are a lot of conservatives around though my city is a blue dot.

this cult like group of "religious followers of christ" that is based in a neighboring southern state goes on tours around the south, claiming to spread their gospel and convert anyone who is not them into them. its hardcore and really cringy. anyways on monday they came to our school to protest on the sidewalks (bc its legally city property) against abortion, homosexuality, and other things. Its annoying as hell and nobody wants them there with their giant stupid signs and the WORST part - they bring their poor small children with them who belong in school but instead are at high schools trying to pass out flyers.

anyways they're gonna be back tomorrow, and this time, my school is ready. Actually, the school isnt bc the staff cant do shit but the students are counter protesting. We're making signs, playing music, and having a sit in protest where we will sit on the ground around the anti abortion protesters, not engaging with them or yelling at them, just sitting and holding our signs and making a statement.

im so hyped hehe

anyways just wanted to share that with yall, and as a sign if anyone has a similar experience: DO IT. protest. It matters. If there's something that you care about, show that you care.

also if anyones wondering abt the bible quote, im not religious and have touched a bible maybe 50 times in my life but took it upon myself to look up some quotes to shoot back at them when they quote the bible (incorrectly i might say).

edit: the counterprotest went amazingly well and we matched if not outnumbered the protestors.

also these comments genuinely frying me LMAOO

another edit: for anyone worried that i misused the bible quote: DON'T WORRY!! I kept it turned to the other side (the first pic) the whole time cuz it was more comfortable to hold so no one saw the back if that's what u were worried about! love n peace 🫶

hi, i'm a freshman in highschool and i've been skipping school for the past 3 and almost 4 weeks now and my parents just found out that i've skipped the entirety of last week and 3 days of this one. they already know about the 2 weeks before this that i skipped, and they were angry and made me promise that i wouldn't skip again, but i still did. the reason why i was skipping is because i have absolutely no friends in this class and i'm basically a loner at this school. i go to a class full of girls and no boys and they all SOMEHOW know eachother already and very well at that. they're all in a huge friendgroup except me and this one girl called sarah that they bully even though sarah has absolutely no idea about it. they go through her bag and her stuff on breaks when she's not in the classrooms, find old pictures of her, stalk her on instagram (even found sarah's girlfriend like hello???) and take pictures of her and her drawings. i really don't enjoy being in that environment and being around popular mean girls like this. mind you, we're only 15 and they all vape, smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol already. i've grown up as the "weird kid" my entire life and going to a place every single day filled with people that are absolutely nothing like me makes everyday at school a living hell. one of them even called one of our teachers a whore (not to her face obviously) because she marked her absent for a class she WASN'T in?? 😭😭😭😭

they don't really bully me or make fun of me but everytime i hear them laughing at something in the back i feel like they're laughing at me. everytime i do something, it feels like everyone's staring at me and preparing for me to do something wrong so they could laugh at me and make fun of me and it's so draining having your brain constantly stressing you out about what other girls in your class think about you whenever you make a single move. now, i know some people will say "who cares about what they think? they're nobodies!" but it's really not that easy to actually adapt to that mindset. i come home from school so unbelievably exhausted and tired because of this, and now that grades are starting it's about to be even worse.

last time i skipped school for like a week only (which could've easily passed as me just being sick) i came to school in the middle of the day for 3 classes because that's the most i could handle. when they saw me, they immediately made comments and were like: "oh my god, no way, emilie came to school! that's crazy!" while laughing. one of them also said "don't you know school starts on september 1st?" and the others just laughed at that. ever since then, i've been skipping and was too afraid to come back since i'm a very sensitive person and take a lot of things people say to me to heart.

when i told my parents about all of this, all they could say was "there's absolutely no way that none of the girls in your class are decent people! you have to go to school! you're going to get expelled and won't have a future! everyone would laugh at your stupid reason for skipping school!" but they don't understand how mentally draining it is to be around these people every single day for hours and having no friends in that school on top of that. they're going to be super disappointed in me once i come home and the argument about me skipping school once again is probably going to be very bad and i'm afraid to come home. i know this post is super lengthy but i really terribly need help because this back and forth skipping and parents finding out is ruining my mental health terribly

I'm 16F, and there's this guy I met (who approached me), that goes to a different school than I (thankfully), we were texting just normal stuff and then he said something along the lines of "when can I see you again." So I interpreted it in a way, and started to flirt with him just to see what would happen. And so that went on for a bit, until I finally decided to talk regularly again, but he's still being flirty.

I'm not sure I even like him since we only met in person once and it was pretty innocent.

I just feel really nervous now when I get a text from him, and I'm not sure if it's just butterflies or I'm genuinely just uncomfortable.

Now I'm just unsure what to do and I'm probably going to see him really soon (at a school fair).

If anyone can help me out, like I'm not sure how to tell him I don't really like him and it was just me testing things out, and I'm not even sure if he likes me either so.
