Do you remember school fondly?

[Ikagura Ikagura]

The school system is fundamentally flawed I'll agree.

The problem is that kids that don't care and mess around are slowing others for sure but the kids with real disabilities/issues that make their learning harder are left behind (or forced to go in the next grade without any help to make them learn things so they get a bigger gap with the level they're in) while kids that are "gifted" are bored and rarely go in specialised schools/levels.

Although being good at school and being smart aren't mutually exclusive.


PS: I find it strange when people say that "high school are the best years of your life" which implies that adult life is boring or that they have lost everything afterwards.

Good and bad first grade is meh
Second grade is alright
Third grade was fun had the pleasure of getting into another branch of school that had me and 5 other students as a class in second semester it changed as more students flocked in not terrible as I got to know few good kids that never saw em again.

Fourth grade was a pretty cool year got to know one of my best friends for the next few years.

Fifth grade was mid as heck

Sixth grade was rubbish it also started my downfall in math.

Seventh grade was alright having went into a new school got few memorable teachers and moments like when one teacher slapped my mate so much he didn't even have time to cry.

Eighth grade was less impressive than 7th didn't help my math teacher was a zero and arabic teacher had the class become a undisciplined mess...

Ninth grade well first semester is nothing unusual save for my math teacher who if anything had a big butt and didn't teach anything in math a minus 3 in teaching also in ninth second semester it was 2020 lockdown time second semester no study only play .

Tenth grade lol I have no memories of it its all online one thing to note it was the year where ww2 is discussed that was like "my time to shine" nope its quarantine time and there went all my hopes for making the ww2 lesson a great memory.

Eleventh grade first semester sucked , second semester was well bad in terms of studies but in terms of everything else it was good it also signalled the time I started to workout changing me a lot both mentally and physically.

Twelfth grade it was another year for my development as a person didn't study well so I didn't pass still suffering consequences to this day I applied again and passed but only physics and chemistry left gonna apply for them in span of few months and see what happens.

Yeah, thou looking back me and my friends were pretty cruel bullies.

It's been a long time but I remember it being fun.

I miss seeing my friends 5 days a week but I don’t really miss school.

Absolutely the worst part of my life.
So much so that I will never judge my children if they resent the Education system and wish to peruse an alternate lifestyle to escape it.
I was recently diagnosed with PTSD and the reasons for it has absolutely nothing to do with my current Military service ?
We really don't talk about the lasting effects of school abuse.

 

[Pandaprewmaster325]

There really wasn't anything fun about watching all the other kids gather into the groups of people that they'd be with until they graduated, while you sit by yourself.
When I was little, I cried about it, but, fast forward, the grand majority of the population is not able to accomplish even a single task alone, and is happy to be a worthless, herdfollowing idiot if it means they don't have to be responsible.

There's also all the schooling I just didn't bother with. One of the teachers harassed the crap out of me until I just stopped going to her class. She was probably jealous because I had more gonads and common sense at 12 than she did as a grown-ass adult woman who hadn't achieved anything other than being an eternal high schooler, and had evolved into a huge, non-stop chattering mouth. Kind of like some sort of D&D monster, before D&D started sucking so hard.

I didn't go to much high school, I just got my GED later.

Teachers can be cruel sometimes I had a math teacher in 6th grade that used to target me specifically we were once all drumming on the desk when she was present when I started drumming she punished me and only me like the whole class drummed why me?

Another memory of this awful teacher is when there was a bug in class it was so sudden that it made me jump she got scared but decided to pick on me for jumping cuz I was surprised she is one of the reasons to blame for my decline performance in math it was only this one teacher and such incidents never happen again until 11th grade which I had a chemistry teacher who thought its fun if he turned me into a clown in front of class another awful human being who most likely decided to pick on me cuz I stood up to him and told he doesn't teach us properly none from class stood up with me :| so he must have felt safe to prey on me when my classmates aren't ready to stand up against a crappy teacher.

Teachers can be cruel sometimes

My high school history teacher had it out for me and would talk to me in ways that would cost him his job nowadays. It was incredibly shocking to me... And the chief reason for which I became a teacher myself, to completely wreck him on his own field. I'd beat him up if we crossed paths today, too.

I too have resentment for the chemistry teacher he was insufferable and that's all im gonna say and when you try to speak up everybody cowers and decide to stand with the teacher instead of their dear colleague and classmate who they knew for years man the education system is rubbish , it rewards lazy behavior if u don't study for 11 years you pass YES its that bad here in Jordan then 12th year its serious suddenly great way to set up kids for failure and teach them nothing but crappy attitude and behavior.

 

[Pandaprewmaster325]

Yes, I had that. I'm like...who's side are you on, again? You know why schools suck? Because of YOU. All of you are the reason this school is not a National Lampoon's 90s movie, not me- I was down from the get-go, I don't know what you guys are doing.

Sorry to hear, though. =/ Actually, all of my class once screamed in unison that I had, indeed, messed up, and I was NOT getting away with it.
Crabs in a bucket.

BTW, mmm... fried crab.

You too tried to stand up for something but ended up being alone sorry im having hard time trying to understand your post can you be more simple with your sentences?

A lot of people have their experiences from school be mostly negative. They're not wrong with that; in fact, if you were to ask me that question Waffles, I would've gotten into my troubles that my school has done to me all the way in second grade to 9th grade and how they destroyed the English Curriculum for me exclusively for some strange reason, making my intelligence intact but my reading and writing comprehension skills being lower than the average person. This alone caused me to have three school transfers (first one didn't help, and the last two where due to us moving to a different state living a happier life fhan usual) and I still continue to suffer with these bits of downsides about me to this day.

But you know what? Screw that history. I think that I have discussed this history with evreyone ive met so much that it can be a little annoying for me and them to pick up and see what could be so wrong with it. I have met a bunch of better people and my High School + College has helped me developed into a better person, realizing more that my nostalgia for mentioning this should be weakened for better experiences. While this had haopened to me, i would have to say that despite all of what Ive said i do remember school fondly.

 

[Nidoking's iconNidoking]

Parts of it... certainly. Something about the nostalgia of the whole thing and missing the simpler times. I definitely knew some people I miss and wish I could reconnect with.

The funny thing, though? I'd probably hate to actually relive most of it given the chance. Just a hunch.

 

[King Koopa's iconKing Koopa]

Nope. Still healing from the trauma from it.

 

[Pandaprewmaster325]

What sort of school it is to cause trauma

 

[Antilocal123]

Only fun part about it was drugs /j

School’s pretty fine, it was just really boring from what I remember.

And the vaping, just ruin your lungs with a Marlboro like a normal teenager instead of stinking up the bathroom you fucking prick.

I remember high school fondly.
