My school is loving handicapped as richard

[Madmitten]

Y'all jerks should consider entering a vocational program if your school district is partnered with one. I went to one for electricity and electronics in my junior and senior years. I opted for that instead of taking an AP class, physics, and calculus in high school as it took up over half the school day. Best decision I made in high school; you take physics and calculus in college anyway and I got a lot of experience that I wouldn't have otherwise.

I've been thinking about learning bout dem electronics
modding my own consoles and stuffs

At least you're not in Grade 11, having to do a grade 10 art class.

...full of handicaps. Literally, they put the disabled kids in with us, and one of them shouts random stuff for no reason at us.

Maybe that's part of his disability? :o

this is highschool right?

does it even matter what classes you take? a credit is a credit, a HS diploma is a HS diploma.
i would rather be taking 8th grade classes for 4 years.

You've got a good point there, for most classes. However, math is something that's pretty easy to take an AP course in, so if you have to repeat a year of it, then you're pushing yourself back a semester in college. If you're majoring in engineering or something like that, then you might also be pushing other courses back. I have a friend who ran into that problem, although he was probably more then just a year behind in math.

My schools biggest issue is that the teachers copies per year has been chopped down from 90,000 copies a year to 25,000 copies. However, other schools in my state are doing much worse (My school was apparently one of a few to pass their budget) due to this fat bastard

That's what I was thinking. I think he's a jerk.

Engineering programs are designed for you to start at calculus one. You save one class if you take AP calculus in high school and that doesn't neccasarily translate into a semester saved (or lost if you didn't take AP) given that your major's classes often have requirements besides math. I didn't take calculus in high school and I have never had a problem working on my engineering degree and math minor simultaniously.

Did your school have a furry day?

Sometimes it's to show confusion. Sometimes I add it in as not to sound sarcastic or condescending. I don't mean to sound that way and I typically don't, but the ":o" acts as a good neutralizer so the post sounds normal (At least to me it does).

At this point, though, it's become a habit. My posts just look and sound different to me when I add them, and now that I've used it for so long and so much, some of my posts just seem odd without it. Not necessarily bad, but almost unfamiliar.  :o

Kill them. Kill them all.

Kill them all so hard they will die to death.

To everyone who is using the same books they used the previous years, isn't it possible that your school are cheap bastards?

Not all schools can afford new books. I know near myself (Near Colten, too, I'm sure. Like he said with all the budget cuts) many schools can hardly afford to keep running their standard programs, let alone getting new supplies and what not. Some schools focus on spending in other areas and merely buy books that can serve fine for five or ten years, as they should. If students take care of them, there shouldn't be much of an issue on passing it down.

Granted, things happen, accidents occur, books age. But for the most part, they should last. And when they are worn or no longer carry updated material needed (As in, new discoveries are made, new accomplishments, etc.), then new ones should be purchased. If they have the money, of course.

Also, many schools mean well for their students. Sometimes they do shift money around and certainly salary cuts in specific areas could greatly benefit the students, but that doesn't mean the school is cheap. They don't often really even have that much power to decide what they get and what they don't.
