Subject: Uhhhhhhh Author: Marie [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 18:40:49 09/09/02 Mon In reply to: Caitlin 's message, "Yep" on 02:52:21 09/09/02 Mon I got out around the end of May. I think they want us to transfer into all-year school. Weird peoples... I never wanted to carry around a purse either, but they come in more styles than bookbags. And I know exactly what I have with me. With my bookbag I always had to do a mental check list. Not fun. It didn't help that two years ago my middle school came out with a no bookbag rule :( My locker was no where half my classes. Yuck.

You'll get lots of little vacations year round though. But it would be torture to have to sit through June, July, and all of August in school. I thought it was bad here in New England, but in Florida... That would be ridiculous. And we're not allowed to bring backpacks into class. Although I'm not in too much of a bad situation because my locker is right in the middle of all my classes, so I don't have to travel a village mile to get to my locker at least.

But over in the West, like Nevada, they already have year-round school! I don't think it'll happen for a while, but it'd be seriously creepy. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: LoL Author: Caitlin [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 17:16:23 09/11/02 Wed Village mile - it's an expression. Well, that's in the west. Every state is different, as is every school. Our schools haven't been considering year-round schooling too much. I've heard a few things, but it's not too big up here. My teacher was discussing it with the class one day and she said, "Year-round school systems? Can you all just see me standing on top of the high school, begging someone to shove me off? God, what are they thinking?!" So I know that many teachers are against it, and students would be in an uproar if it ever happened. Sooo, I don't think it'll be happening around here too soon. Creepy, yes. Tiring, yes. It just wouldn't be good. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
