RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017

The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.

If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.

To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.

I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.

I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.

I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.

I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.

Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.

Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

My school is fucking insane

I can not be the only one that experiences shit like that, mostly BEFORE THE HOLIDAYS.

Have you ever experienced when there is this one school week where you get BOMBED WITH MUTLIPLE FUCKING TESTS INBETWEEN ONE GODDAMN SCHOOL WEEK?!

So what am I bombed with?
A fucking chemistry test on Monday, a fucking french language test on Tuesday and a MOTHERFUCKING maths test on Thursday...
I forgot, this, what I like to call, killing-spree actually started last week where on last Thursday I had a fucking physics test and on Friday a fucking essay.

Teachers do not give a fucking shit about what PSYCHOPATHS they are for making us do all this FUCKING SHIT

And yet they still wonder why pupils get such bad grades recently...

WELL WE GET TO TAKE YOUR GODDAMN UNWARRANTED TESTS EVERY FUCKING DAY BEFORE HOLIDAYS AND WE NEVER GET SPARED FROM YOUR BUFFALOSHIT, THIS IS WHY, YOU FUCKING BASTARDS

But guys, let me tell you, it gets worse:

I have not told anyone here about it, but since I am already pissed off about this, I may as well bring it out now: In our first weeks we had in this grade (Not to mention our LAST grade here, where those last exams want to rape us but probably will not succeed on me), most of our teachers announced the dates of when we would take their tests. Most of the time it is 4 test throughout the year, some subjects just have 2.

And here comes the terrible thing: Despite having told us about those exams (I absoultely LOATHE that word) and how much they shoved down our throats how IMPURTUNT (Notice the lousy way of typing "important", that is how much I actually give a shit) they will be, THEY ACTUALLY PLANNED SOME TESTS AFTER WE ARE DONE WITH THOSE... AXUMS(See? much better)

I shit you not, even AFTER our longlasting TORTURE near the end, they STILL want us to take their unholy unwanted tests. No, I MUST be the only one, there is no way in HELL that there are actually schools out there that demand children to take tests AFTER their days of pain were claimed to be over!

I do not CARE how much one would defend such a thing, MY SCHOOL IS A FUCKING INSANE ASYLUM!!

RE: My school is fucking insane

I've had those days before myself. I had to do a big test in English and a quiz in Geometry once.

Also, in California, since 1999 there has always been a big testing week called STAR where for 2 weeks most of the day is focused on testing. It kills a lot of class time, but damn, I hated the fact that they decided to put everything we learned at the very end, rather than do it in 4 separate quarters (doesn't Harvard do that?).

Now though, they've ditched the STAR test and are going to replace it with something completely new, involving computers. I'm really curious to what it is.

Really? I passed that on my first try. In fact, my test scores were far above what was needed.

Funny enough, the school accidentally called my mother that I failed it and needed to go to what was called "CAHSEE Boot Camp" (lord knows what that was). The school later explained they called my by accident.

They should just call the tests interrogations and just get it over with. After all, that's all a test is, if they really wanted to know if you learned, they would just ask you what you learned. Might as well just make that fence around the school a barbed wire fence and put even more cops on campus. At least it would be an honest totalitarian state.

...Plenty do, but it's usually just in the form of metal detectors, and rarely involves pat-downs.

My school is fucking insane

I remember I was once at a speech group talk (anyone else have those where they do those once a week and take away your lunch?), everyone at the table was telling me to start wearing my ID lanyard (I saw no point in it), and one of the students brilliantly says that a better form of protecting the school would be metal detectors! It's one thing for schools to do it, but another for students to support it.

My school has very little security, only two(that I know of) SRO's, no ID lanyards or anything. They also give us a bunch of liberties as well. Although thinking about it, I think that by doing this it caused the lack of a school Hierarchy, and it most likely would create student body more willing to listen.

We also have around 2,000 or so students. Although that was a few years ago, so it might have changed, but it is still a lot. However I assume I'm a lucky one in terms of schools. Especially by Hansgrohe's post.
