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.

School Now In Your Home
Glad that it snowed? Snow day blessing?
Think again. Innovative teachers have decided that the awful education system can be brought to your home with technology and parents are ecstatic.
Just when you thought you had one place left for peace of mind, they find a way to barge in.

My school already started this and its AWFUL. First off if your like me and can never understand written directions and always have questions, theres no where to go. Second, teachers run out of ideas, so they start racking up pointless assignments just to keep us "busy". Sure its nice that we get out a day before June, but you know what I would rather just make up a week in the end and get some freedom in the long run.
Also the thing I hate most.... we get more work to do than we would EVER get in the classroom. If your school hasn't started this yet, you don't know how lucky you are.

I can imagine a button on their screen labeled "Random Assignment Generator". Every click sends a pointless assignment...
And I'm in college so I guess I got out just in time!

RE: No school today? Think again.
When you hear the sound of school teachers, don't you get too scared, just grab your friend or buddy and just sing these magic words:
'OH, fuck you, schooling!! You can suck my dick! You won't take my snow days cause your just God's sharts (fart)'
"Thou shalt not be an asshole"
-The one commandment of atheism.

"If you call xcriteria a shithead, he will write a ten page essay on why he is not a shithead, link you to a tedtalk on bullying and the tvtropes page on insults. After reading and watching all that you would evaluate your life and decide to never call anyone a shithead ever again."

For anyone who remembers me going on an archive binge: Thank you all. I know I ended it being a drama queen, I don't really agree with the ideology anymore, and I'm really not the same person I was (I went through a neopagan phase!) but still this site was the first online community I was in. I graduated from school and turned 18. Time flies. KFC Nyan Cat, June 20, 2019.

Same here. Just counts as an absence no worries.

That's one way of thinking of it. I prefer to think that you are the snowflake and school is the raging inferno of hell.
