i am in private school i'm in 11th grade and i have the same students since 6th. the school is very expensive and my mom want me to finish it so i can get my High school diploma. the class sizes are small and the teachers are great. we also have to wear uniforms, but now i feel that my safety is at risk. today i was at the park in gym class and i was talking to one of my friends and one of the boys came up to me and said "i heard you called me a cu*t" (now i know guy's name but i have never spoken to this kid in my life, plus i am not in any of his classes.) i said "i thoses words never came out of my mouth" then later as the class is leaving the park this girl comes up to me and starts yelling at me saying that i was going to stab her.
(i also know this girl's name but i have never spoken to her in my life either.) it turns out that another girl that i know and have classes with told her this. both ppl were yelling at me for something i didn't do. what could i do to stop all this?

I shave my head. but the school authorities told me to grow my hair back and not do it again. but they allow long shoulder length hair (on guys) and also HUGE spikes.

if they are really concerned about neatness... isnt having no hair neater than having messy bushes? isnt an afro less 'respectable'?

any feedback?

PS: its a pvt. school. might have something to do wit it... but i dont think so.

I have two boys. The eldest is 9 and soon will be given sex education at school. Do you think I'm right to be concerned thinking that's he's too young? It may be his last year in believing in Santa but now-a-days they're gonna end up learning about the birds and the bees first.

There's such a problem about mothers getting younger and younger. Is teaching them in a Junior school the right answer? I don't think so.

Why can't kids be allowed to be kids now-a-days? Do you think I should ask the school not to include him in those lessons?

Assuming they have school aged children. And if they don't, why not? Do you blame them or think they should be part of the solution instead of "opting out" of the system? And isn't it a little bit hypocritical about talking about fixing the schools and trusting the schools to educate the country's children when they don't even use the public school system themselves?

I live in Scotland so the school system will probably be different where you live but basically I have been at High School for 5 years now and i'm doing my highers (Grades to allow me into university).
The thing is i'm having a extremelly difficult time keeping up and i'm starting to fall behind really badly. I hope to get some kind of job in 3D Design but if i'm having this much trouble in school I would hate to imagine what university would be like.
Also I haven't discussed this with my parents because the would probably have a heart attack at the idea of me leaving school I could just leave if I wanted to but I would hate to let everyone down so I really have no idea what to do.

I'm in Grade 12, and every year so far I've had to read a book by Shakespeare. This year I've got to tackle King Lear. I don't understand why. My teachers and my parents say it is to appreciate the language back then and the language today, but there are better ways to appreciate English than to try and understand writing that is several centuries out of date.

I haven't gained anything from Shakespeare except a headache and frustration out of trying to understand the ridiculous language of the books. We will never write like Shakespeare did, there are plenty of wonderfully written modern books that accomplish far more, for me at least, than what Shakespeare wrote.

Or maybe I'm just a dumb teenager who is too used to writing as if they are on MSN all the time. Maybe it's just me.

I'm tutoring a second grader as part of my education class and I still feel a little clueless as to what is the right amount of difficulty for a second grader. I decided to do an activity on homophones with him, here is an example.... Teachers, do you think this is too hard?

*Homophones*

Homophones are words that sound the same, have a different spelling, and have a different meaning.


*Fill in the blank with the correct homophone

1. Do you think the old women down the street is a______? I don’t know, ______ old woman are you talking about? (which, witch)
2. Last night _____ was a party over at our neighbor’s house. _____ known for _____ parties. Too bad they didn’t invite us! (they’re, their, there)
3. There was so much snow on the ground last night, that it took us over an _____ just to get back to _____ house! (hour, our)
4. My mom warned me to ___ careful around that ___ hive. If I had listened to her, I wouldn’t have gotten stung. (be, bee)
5. My best friend wanted me to ____ him at his house for dinner. But, when I found out they were having ____ loaf, I told him no thanks. (meet, meat)
6. I felt so sick and ____ this morning. I didn’t know how I would make it through a ____ of school. (week, weak)
7. On a ____ day like this, I could sure go for a hot bowl of ____. (chili, chilly)
