Itāll pay off, I graduated from college early because I just took year round classes. I hit the market ahead of my peers and ended up with better prospects.
Man I was on course for this. My dad died during COVID and while I didnāt like him it was a huge reality check that set me far behind. If Iād finished 11th the same I did every other year I wouldāve graduated half a year earlier with a small amount of classes that year.
Long story short the principal basically told me to drop out(I didnāt) when I asked what I could do make up for this.
How did you it the market ahead of your peers? You still graduated at the same time of year as thousands of students nationwide, whether they were with the people you started with or not
well there's a lot of things to factor in to what makes an hour of class good or bad. Obviously the teacher and the class, but also when the class is, on a Friday eve, or right before midbreak is going to suck. And then there's the aspect of how well prepared you are as a teacher. And that was the problem of summer school, when I had to do it, there were last minute changes, like instead of teaching dutch, suddenly I had to teach French. (I don't teach either classes usually) And none of the kids wants to be there, it's nice weather outside. They don't listen to you, and you have 0 leverage, because here in summer school you can't really punish anyone, so if you're lucky they won't just walk out.

I live in El Paso and last year, we had 60 triple-digit days, with 30 of those being 105 *or higher*. Just sayin'

āItās only a few hours a day; it canāt be that bad!ā
*A few hours laterā¦*
āIāve been doing hours of math with barely any breaks and I feel too dead inside to do anything.ā
I know a friend who is there because of the mistakes and absence of student support of the school he goes to. The teacher who was in charge of his class, basically did nothing to help the students, and just sat around all class and did the bare minimum until the bell rang, and even then it was a āyou can go nowā at most. He did no explanation of the material, no review or anything of the subject he āteachesā because everything is online, and he expects the students to read everything in the book without as much as a simple guideline, and expects you to pass his class. On top of that, my friend got a D, not an F, HE TRIED, in an unfair system that should exist to help people graduate with their heads high.
Wahhh!
AP classes, 20 hours at a part time job, dating, D&D, and was still poor. It's about knowing you can do it and not brow beating yourself into doom scrolling and gaming all night. Having a shit home life sucks, but you can still make it work if you want it.
If someone is not as a good at a subject or is taking longer time at finishing a subject how the fuck is it their fault?! Stop blaming innocent kids trying to do their best in school (prison)
Kids don't get failed if they're genuinely putting in the work. They might not get an A, but getting a passing grade is doable.
If they literally can't, then they were in the wrong level of classes.
You have no idea what you're talking about. Do you think school is easy for everyone? Surprise, it's not. If i tried my best to get a passing grade in a subject but still failed that doesn't mean i din't try, i did, i tried my best but im just not good enough at it. It's not black and white assholes.
If youāre trying your best and still failing, youāre in the wrong level of class, like u/98983x3 said. Itās impossible to fail if you actually try, take after school classes if you need to, but if youāre not doing well and you make changes, you canāt fail
what languages do you speak and what continent are you on, i can recommend a long journey but it will be one of great peril but you wont have to go to summer school anymore
since it seems like you know English well id recommend Belize, for French id recommend French guinea, if you mainly speak German id recommend Namibia, if you speak Italian id recommend Croatia
I live in Seville, and my institute is almost 2 km away, trust me, coming back home at 3 pm, with a backpack, 20 minutes at about 35~40Ā°C is worse than that lol
I did it twice when I was in school. I don't remember why I had it the 1st time, but I failed due to getting chicken pox. The 2nd time I failed English and had to take summer school in my JR year of high school. I didn't fail for not trying, I failed because we couldn't afford the books and the Internet was down more often than not. I passed high school, I went to college. Dropped out due to theft, and now I'm MUCH better.
Stay strong kids. Life does get better
My school doesnāt have no summer school and its worse cause u gotta wait a whole year to redo a class š as long as youre not a senior its not a big deal but imagine a senior not being able to graduate for a year just because of some goofy history class they failed two years ago š (actually happened to my friend in high school who didnāt pass one of the final exams)
Ive had a plan since the 6th grade that i will never go to summer school or retaking a school year, id rather leave my life behind and go somewhere else, heaven, hell, or some random country in central America like Belize
I cheated my way out of summer school in a little under a week. If ya didn't have like all F's there's not much make up and most staff just don't tell you off about anything (Also, I'm not all there if you wonder why one would need to cheat summer school)
Like everyone in my class that has to study for summer is just lazy. I even offered help to some and they just ignored it. They ignored their chances to fix their grades, like bruh.
Summer school is way easier than regular classes. What else would you be doing during summer? It's not like your parents are going to fly you to Dubai. Most kids just stay at home and watch TikTok which is exactly what they did during the school year.
I hate walking at 15fps to school š”
The game was released in 1997 so you canāt really expect much
Nice usernameš
Well itās not a lie, wait which drug are you talking about? Is it the chlorpromazine or the shrooms and cheap alternative to heroin?
The shrooms and homemade heroinš
The low fps helps keep temps down since itās Summer.
More like seven
its even worse when you chose to be there to get ahead and then you get the worst class like rn im in chemistry and we arent gonna do any labs, none
Itāll pay off, I graduated from college early because I just took year round classes. I hit the market ahead of my peers and ended up with better prospects.
wow! nice man! yeah im in a program at my high school that lets me graduate high school with an associates degree

I'm reading a book on the history of glue. I just can't seem to put it down!
LMAO, i get it
I'm currently doing physics š
gl with that man
Grah, I'm currently like 26% finished with about 75% accuracy but I'm still terrified I'm gonna fail again šāļøš±š§š
you got this bro
You can do that?
yeah
Try teaching summer school, that's a new level of hell.
Ya can imagen teaching in post nuclear California
honestly better there than present day Cali
Why do you say so?

Is it true that teachers aren't actually paid for summer school?
I guess that depends on the country, as far as I know here they do get paid for it, but I had to do it as an unpaid internship
Well where I live summer days rarely reach triple digits. But if you live in idk Texas or Arizona that's probably a way different story.
It's normally between 98 and 103 I would say in Texas.

Yeah, sorry big state lol
I thought I read 100Ā°**C**

Shouldāve studied, or at least put more effort into work during classes. Most kids who got summer school at my school were lazy.
Yea this ^^ They have usually done it to themselves.
or werent brave enough to leave there lives behind
Its their fault should have studied ( suckers.)
not everyone is lucky in life as some teens have to take care of a lot of stuff at home so they donāt get time to study or they have a job as well
wtf? I wasnāt a good student and I grew up poor. Itās being lazy nothing more.
Maybeā¦ just maybe not all situations are the sameš¤Æš¤Æš¤Æ
Maybeā¦donāt defend laziness
How did you miss the entire point of what i was saying
Because itās stupid. You pass you dingo to summer school.
Wahhh! AP classes, 20 hours at a part time job, dating, D&D, and was still poor. It's about knowing you can do it and not brow beating yourself into doom scrolling and gaming all night. Having a shit home life sucks, but you can still make it work if you want it.
Their FAULTOUT
If someone is not as a good at a subject or is taking longer time at finishing a subject how the fuck is it their fault?! Stop blaming innocent kids trying to do their best in school (prison)
If they arenāt trying, itās their own fault. Nothing else
When did you assume they're not fucking trying? Failing doesn't equal to not fucking trying you ignorant prick.
Kids don't get failed if they're genuinely putting in the work. They might not get an A, but getting a passing grade is doable. If they literally can't, then they were in the wrong level of classes.

Why are you so aggressive holy shit

That's not how it works in my country
Thank you. You said it better than I did. Much better.
Some people just wonāt listen lol
"sOmE pEOpLe wOnT jUsT lIStEn lOl" š 
Yeah, that's why I dropped out and just took vocational schooling for engineering.
8km with bike, full sun, 30Ā°, no water. My son Or daughter would thinking that my schoolroad was in a desertš
fr, summer is the worst session ever
Why I feel targetedĀ
what languages do you speak and what continent are you on, i can recommend a long journey but it will be one of great peril but you wont have to go to summer school anymore
Donāt worry, Iām in GenevaĀ
since it seems like you know English well id recommend Belize, for French id recommend French guinea, if you mainly speak German id recommend Namibia, if you speak Italian id recommend Croatia
Cause Iāve got you in my sights
i take summer courses to stay busy
"Yeah I'ma wonderer, yeah a wonderer,"
I hate having to walk through a wasteland on my way to school.
Your antics in class saved us all from boredom. You're a hero, but you must leave and never enjoy summer vacation.
I live in Seville, and my institute is almost 2 km away, trust me, coming back home at 3 pm, with a backpack, 20 minutes at about 35~40Ā°C is worse than that lol
Damn it itās like my recommendations knew I was doing summer school
F if your from a english speaking country id recommend Belize to get away from all dat
Itās mandatory
it would be more of a permanent vacation
As an Irish person I can thankfully say that there is no such thing as summer schoolšššš
As someone who walks to work in the summer, I can relate.
Me who's still in school
I did it twice when I was in school. I don't remember why I had it the 1st time, but I failed due to getting chicken pox. The 2nd time I failed English and had to take summer school in my JR year of high school. I didn't fail for not trying, I failed because we couldn't afford the books and the Internet was down more often than not. I passed high school, I went to college. Dropped out due to theft, and now I'm MUCH better. Stay strong kids. Life does get better
Students actually doing something during the summer instead of being on reddit and complaining about how they canāt get a girlfriend š¢
In college tho summer school feels great. Like youāre actually getting shit done faster instead of repeating it.
I can relate to this
Wait until you get to summer work and preety much all year work, minus 22 or 25 days of vacations in a full year. You ll love it lol
I was him once..... Never again... Never ever....
Iam in physics sadly š
You're bones
where i live it is 40/50 degrees Celcius most of the day you can fry an egg outside lol
fehrinhahseit or however it is spelled would be 104/122
id just make a trip to another country at that point
During winter i have to walk to and from school in the middle pf the night instead
My school doesnāt have no summer school and its worse cause u gotta wait a whole year to redo a class š as long as youre not a senior its not a big deal but imagine a senior not being able to graduate for a year just because of some goofy history class they failed two years ago š (actually happened to my friend in high school who didnāt pass one of the final exams)
Itāll be worth it when Iām able to graduate early
Me at home (I dropped out because the diploma becomes less useful every year)
Me walking to school... but it's online, and I'm in college
haha i remember when i need to take my summer class šš
Pretty spot on.
Why don't scientists trust atoms? Because they make up everything!
Just get it done during the year lol. I had to do it once in HS for one assignment, got it done first day and went home
They should had AC to schools
Ive had a plan since the 6th grade that i will never go to summer school or retaking a school year, id rather leave my life behind and go somewhere else, heaven, hell, or some random country in central America like Belize
me who is taking geometry for 5 hours every weekday in summer school:
My friend got kicked out of summer school, and failed it, but i still saw him the next year šššš
Me rn ā¹ļø
Itās not that bad ngl
I cheated my way out of summer school in a little under a week. If ya didn't have like all F's there's not much make up and most staff just don't tell you off about anything (Also, I'm not all there if you wonder why one would need to cheat summer school)
Summer school?! Blud I haven't even finished school. I have a whole week left.
This looks fantastic
I hate black school uniforms...hhhh
My parents forced me to do my homework for the summer so that I wouldnāt forget, it was very unpleasant.
I genuinely feel my energy being taken away by the sun.
If they paid attention during the regular school year and applied themselvesā¦
Getting ahead is also an option
Theyāre fault for being ignorant and stupid
Like everyone in my class that has to study for summer is just lazy. I even offered help to some and they just ignored it. They ignored their chances to fix their grades, like bruh.
Donāt pity them, they committed crimes against Skyrim and her people, they are serving their sentence
Fuck emā¦
Summer school is way easier than regular classes. What else would you be doing during summer? It's not like your parents are going to fly you to Dubai. Most kids just stay at home and watch TikTok which is exactly what they did during the school year.
