Obama YEAR ROUND SCHOOL YEAR DX

[Thorax]

If they go that, they should allow some of us who are gifted to get ahead.  It wouldn't make any difference to me though because I'm a senior next year.  But honestly, treating every student equally is the worst idea the administration ever came up with.  Every student is not equal and that is very clear to anyone who has passed elementary school.  I believe that changes need to be made but more school is not the only answer.  AP and honors classes offer chances for the smarter people to get ahead but students who fall behind never really fall behind even though they should remain at a grade level until they are damn well ready to proceed.  It might motive some people anyway.  If you don't want to repeat a year, you damn well better know your stuff.

Being pollitically correct and not offending people are all the rage nowadays...

If you let one student move ahead, you'll make the other student feel inferior, and we don't want to do that, do we?

I swear, America is becoming a socialist nation. What happend to the freedom to get ahead America used to have?

I believe that this could be a good idea. Maybe not year round, only like maybe 200-260 days instead of 180. It would be more like European and Asian school systems. However, I do not believe that a longer day would help. Increasing the school day would just exhaust students (including me) more, and this would cause us to not work as hard. On the other hand, if we can raise the standards for teachers and the curriculum these days, it would be equally as good. I don't want America to fall behind other countries since we are (or could be more so) a great country compared to the many third world countries. Although if he does end up making the school year all year round, he should also increase the break size and the amount of breaks we have. I say increase the school year: Maybe. Increase the School day: Not at all.

Don't be babies, deal with it. School isn't all that bad. But I do enjoy breaks too.

It "offends" people too much.

Why do people have to be so damn sensitive nowadays?

Because they do it to bother others.

The problem with people is they the give to much of a loving damn what other people think.  forget other people.  What did they ever do for me?  Why should I give a stuff if they aren't smart enough to keep up with me in school?  They should stay with the dumbforgets they belong with.  forget equality if this is what it gets us.

[Thorax]

Equality makes me feel inferior! :(

I don't really mind school. I can live with it. It's just what they make us learn is stupid. I know I'm never going to use half the stuff I learned.

[DrMobius]

I didn't mind it either.  Until May.  They I just wanted to get the forget out.

There should be year-round school, the hell I don't really care about Summer, it just gets so loving boring.
This is the routine for the average American teenager on Summer Break, Sleep In till 9:30, eat junk for breakfeast, take a nap, play games, watch tv, play games, go to bed. And then you turn pale.

Edit: Also you eat more junk food

Math is loving annoying, I'd never have to work out problems on paper, I'd have a phone calculator or something like it.

[DrMobius]

If you're in calculus, calulators are of limited help

I can see that you have no understanding of why these things were done.

Obama has not acted unusually to our allies and enemies, in fact Bush is a bit more unusual when it comes to foreign policy.



Also I wonder why he has so much popularity if he's doing such stupid(from your point of view) things. HRM. I wonder if it could possibly be that the rest of America doesn't see them as so stupid.

And I wonder if it could be that the rest of America that voted for him are stupid.

Corrected!

Yeah, I would like to see our country become better than Japan in all the GOOD traits. We need to give America a name other than a country that could kick your country's third world ass. Many European and Asian countries are good. I would enjoy having school 270 days a year, maybe. I agree with that guy. I am in my school band and I play Clarinet. I came back from Summer not knowing any of my scales. I sucked and had to re learn a lot of things. You guys need to stop being so "OMG NOT MOR SCOOL"
