Some distericts have alternative schools, charter schools, or specialized schools where students might attened only a few times a week and complete the bulk of their work at home or where the cirriculum has a different structure and focus. Typically this is only available in highschool.
You're not alone in hating school. Thousands of kids of all ages hate school with an unbelievable passion for a variety of reasons. Maybe they're bullied, have no friends, hate getting up early, find the work boring, have mean teachers, find the work irrelevant or unchallanging, don't fit in with anyone, etc, etc, etc.
Here is some advice from someone who hated school as much as school could be hated.
1. Find something you like and would possibly like to do as a profession. For example, let's say you like robotics.
2. Bother your instructors or school councelor about getting involved in a program that has to do with robotics (or whatever you like). Believe it or not there are tons of great programs out there for kids and it's the job of your school to tell you about them but they usually don't because a lot of kids don't care so you have to take the initiative about it.
3. Engage yourself in class by asking questions. Believe it or not, if you start asking questions about a subject that bores you to death you might actually start to find it interesting.
4. Do your work and if you don't understand something find someone to help you with it and make an honest attempt to understand it.
5. If you have particular difficulty with a subject that you do really try hard at, ask the school psychologist if you can be tested for a learning disability. In the US the testing is free and they will help you if you do have one.
6. If you have no friends at school or don't fit in, don't worry about it. In a very short amount of time, that won't matter because you'll soon be worrying about more important things such as how much your new job pays. Focus on your studies and hobbies that you enjoy and take advantages of all the things your school offers you. Strike up conversations with your teachers once in a while, they'll apprciate it and you might have something in common. Remember, they HAVE to assign you certain work even if THEY find the subject boring because the state decides what they teach and how they teach it.

I'm an education major and I actually just got done taking a class where this was a major topic. Where you child goes to school should depend on the individual child. You want to send your student to where they can develop the most. If you feel that the public schools in your area are not sufficient enough then don't send your student there. A lot of public schools in America are not doing too well so I can definitely understand your worry. Private schools may or may not work, sometimes parents can't afford them or don't believe in what they may stand for. Home schooling can be very successful for some, although others may argue that it keeps them from developing socially or having a sense of self. If you're afraid of you student lacking friends get them involved in some kind of activity, or camps, most communities offer a bunch of things for kids to do. Students are all different and should go to school where you think they can do their best. Some do better in public while others do better in homeschool, that's why they are all offered.There is no right or wrong way, just each persons individual belief.

You can always go for a GED, but you really should finish high school at least. Even fast food places want high school diplomas now just to flip burgers and deep fry fries.
The GED isn't as good as the diploma, but it won't close all of the doors either. No high school means no further education. With the GED you can do trade schools and a few collages let you take night courses.
If you want out of school so badly, try this. Do your best, Get all A's and better and they may accelerate you to the next grade level, this way, you'll graduate early and be done with it.

Sure. Drop out of school. THat way you can earn considerably less than everyone else, if you can even find a job. THat way we can add you to the welfare rolls and support your sorry butt. Get a grip, in life we all deal with things we don't like. THink how lucky you are to have school as an option.

no !grow up, suck it up and deal with it ! you are talking about the basis of your entire future, do not destroy it at such a tender age. you will have plenty of time to screw it up in later years. and by the way it would help to know specifically why you hate school !

Cyber school. The school district you live in will pay for it, so there is no cost for you or your family. You can get information about it in your guidance office.
