Answer 1

first let me say i'm glad to see you want to finish school instead of just drop out. but honey, your record follows you for a long time.....do your best to get it cleaned up!!get your facts before you do any more STUPID things...the outcome may not be what you expect. don't depend on what sounds logical to you...there are rules and guidelines....talk to the guidance counselor, the adult ed class you are interested in,etc.....also a ged is not the same as a high school diploma if that's what you are looking at getting....you have made it this far........hang in there .it will be worth it....being out of hs and in the real world isn't what it's cracked up to be......esp with a bad school record.........g'luck!!!!

Answer 2

I don't know about your district, but here when you are "invited to leave" (which takes a string of very serious infractions) the student is not allowed to attend adult ed. How important is getting a diploma to you? Not everyone will graduate on time; I can guarantee you won't be the first, nor the only one in that situation. Consider this, though: do you wish to continue your education in the future, either college, tech school, etc.? Your file will go with you. Making yourself a chronic dicipline problem won't help that at all.

Lastly, I'll leave you with this. Sit down with the guidance counselor and your mom--see just what it would take to get the job done. Consider summer school or taking additional classes. Take responsibility for where you are today, but also be an active role in the solutions and programs that will get you where you want to be.

Oh, I wish you had a crystal ball so you could see how your "plan" will affect your future in every aspect of your life.
High school graduates earn over $100,000 more than non-graduates over their working years. It rally widens the gap if you go to college, earning about $250,000 to $300,000 more than a high school graduate during their working years.
Over 80% of the people in our prisons never graduated from high school. Wonder why? They don't have enough education to find a half-way decent job, so they turn to crime in order to pay their bills. Flipping burgers won't feed your kids or pay the rent, utilities, car expenses, taxes, medical care, etc.
A GED ("adult ed") IS NOT the same thing as a high school diploma! You are still considered to be a high school drop-out in the eyes of most employers, and will only be eligible to go to community college. What makes you think the adult (which you aren't) ed program will take you? Not if you get kicked out of school.
As for your mom, I wouldn't understand if you were my kid, either. Parents have several more years of life experience than you, and have seen what happens to kids when they get kicked out of school. Your mom only wants the best for you and to see you succeed in life. Your brain isn't developed enough to predict the consequences of your actions, and it won't be until you are 23 to 24 years old (a scientific fact). I'm sure your mom is significantly older than that.
So, do you want to be earning $17,000 a year, raise your children in poverty, live in a slum, use dangerous public transporation found in run-down sections of the city, get mugged, probably spend time in jail, and have MAJOR problems paying your bills? Guaranteed-- you will work until the day you keel over and die, with zero hope of ever retiring, even at 80.
Get kicked out of school.

Answer 4

Alright, I'm going to try and answer this question without inserting my opinion because I know how annoyed I am when people do that.
Legally you could drop out of school at your age. As far as getting kicked out there's always disorderly conduct and defacement of school property, but those are actions that will probably get you arrested as well as kicked out.

Answer 5

The wrongest way to go about this situation. If you are on a year round school you still got a whole year until the end of classes. How about getting your act together and going to night school to catch up on your credits. Think Smart, Not Stupid.

Answer 6

Well, uhm, you should graduate, but if you don't well yeah....
Uhm today a kid got expelled from my school he took 9 xanax's in chapel ( i go to private school ) and then someone told on him and when he was in the deans office he just ran out of the office and half of the administration chased him around campus until he passed out then they had to carry him into the school and lie him down on a table. haha, just thot I'd share that.
