I have this one English teacher that teaches me 20-ish periods a week. I had her last year for Cooking, and to say the least she's, "unhelpful". This year I have for English, Science, Geography, and Drama. She yells every class, about anything; from garbage to lack of effort. I admit I have been kicked out of class once or twice, but since September.
Thursday's is her worst day, she teaches 7 periods and 2 classes. She can't stand kids after lunch, and yells at us. Our other teachers politely tell us to do push-ups and that's it. Why can't she be like that?
It's not just my class either, I can ask kids from grade 8-12 and they'll remember her, and her rants. She usually loves me and wishes I was in High School already (I agree). She ALWAYS tells our class she wishes our school was a boot camp. What should I do to handle such people?

**I am ~usually~ polite to her. I have that "Yes Ma'am, No Ma'am" thing with her.

I really do like archaeology and i'm interested in the mysteries of the world, like aliens and where's The Lost Ark and all of that. I also like writing scary stories. I also really enjoy movies. I love kids too. What do you think I should be? I'm 13 years old and i'm doing a project for school about sending a business letter to a college. We're practicing how to make business letters.

Some people say that girls achieve more academically in a single sex school and that discipline etc is better. Other people say that a mixed school is more natural. Any thoughts?

My dad pushes my a lot in school, and I get straight A's. I have since 4th grade. I believe that this expectation is unreasonable. I try my hardest in school every day, but I also try to have fun while I'm there and have a life. I don't study as much as I could, but I grasp the material in school and get A's on most of the assignments. My dad sais that I am unmotivated since I don't study a lot and people from other places in the world are going to laugh at me and take my jobs. He has also called me retarted or stupid from time to time since i seem to argue with him about the pressure he puts on me. I got a 91 on my English midterm and he sais I'm "Slacking." I am two years ahead in math and a year ahead in science, being in 10th grade and taking Chemistry and Pre-Calculus. I am in the top five of my grade, and I take all honors classes available. Who do you think is right? Is my dad putting more pressure on my than he should for a 15 year old or should I study harder?

I work as a substitute teacher and watch children in elementary beat their teachers , call them obcenities, and all the teacher can do is send them to the principal and wait for the next temper tantrum. I have seen this over and over again, One 6 yr old child told his teacher his daddy said he didn't need to do as she asked because she was just another "******" I was so upset when she blushed and told me this child told her this on a daily basis.
I think parents who choose to rear this type of child should home school. Am I wrong?

I hate high school. I don't have many friends and I feel invisible. My senior class is huge so the graduation ceremony will be very long. Honestly, I could care less about anyone I go to school with and I really do not want to have to sit through the ceremony, watching a bunch of people who I do not know or do not like walking across a stage. So my questions are: Should I go anyways? Is graduation really that big of a deal? People tell me I'll regret not walking, but I don't think I will. Does anyone know of anybody who did not walk at their high graduation?
