My old school they barely cared about everything, you were allowed to have phones out at anytime unless the teacher puts a policy on it in some way. School lunches were stuff, but we were allowed to go off campus when we had a free period or when it was lunch (which is just a study hall for some of you guys), no one can't really tell if you're in a class or not so a lot of people could get away with skipping, but some of the security guards/patrol officers knew some people, so those guys can't really get away with stuff. Some teachers would give you almost full credit for late work, even if it is very late. You can roam in the halls as long as you aren't in the academic halls, which there were a lot of halls and only half of them were academic. Cafe was big as a gym and the library was big as a small gym and had lots of computers, they don't often check computers so people usually use a VPN on the computer to do stuff they need to "do" without getting in trouble. No one really cared to do pledge of allegiance. I miss my old school a lot.
Now I'm at a school where they don't accept any late work, so it goes to a 0. School lunch is stuff and there's no off campus (yes I can make my own lunch but I used to go off campus all the time and get my own lunch at my old school so I got used to that). You can't have phones out at all or they take it without any questions, you'll get ranges from detention, in school suspension or 3+ days of suspension. What if I need to know if it's okay to stay after? What if my parent is trying to tell me something important but I can't respond back? We are also forced to do pledge of allegiance. I seriously hate this school and I wish I never had to move.
