vaping in school bathrooms are so common, like hell!wtf do you mean i see 9th graders vaping and smoking ALL THE TIME? YOU’RE LITERALLY 13-14 😭???? Literally today i went to a near buy gas station to go buy a snack and we have to walk buy a small patch of woods and I literally would see CLOUDS of smoke coming from the trees, snaps from people smoking all the time and shi just GET OUTT ITS SO EMBARRASSING?

Who is we bro?

I started seeing my childhood friend of 10 years. Everything is great but there is one problem… our age gap. We are both in high school but he is two grades ahead, though our age gap is closer to 1.5 years since I have an early birthday and he has a late one. I’ve known him for long enough to know that he doesn’t have harmful intents and the Romeo and Juliet law exist in our state so there shouldn’t be any legal concerns. Please let me know if this is an acceptable age gap because he is a really great guy.

So, I want a girlfriend. Issue is, all the girls in my grade are out of my league, or they are just weird or vape. I live in a small town and my school is pretty small with only about 60 kids in my grade. I cant just go to my nearest city because it is too far to walk to (unless i want to walk for two hours there and 2 hours back only to make it to the outskirts of the city). And I dont want to risk encountering a random pedo on the internet. What do I do?

in my career i’ve only been caught once i’ve made over $400 and have satisfied plenty of customers

How good exactly is this, could this get me into competitive schools?

Yeah so I was in class when a guy in my class who was one of my closest boy friends randomly said:"Your thighs are huge you're like a footballer your jeans are close to ripping out"

EDIT: Him and I are pretty close and yes we usually tease each other but this was random and uncalled for. Plus I already told him that I was insecure about my body when he joked about my acne scars and how "no men would ever want to be with me "

Where I live we only have elementary school (grades 1-6) and high school (grades 7-9) and then college or something else I forgot the name of.

I’m a freshmen rn in a school full of smart kids who come from old money families. their parents are either doctors or lawyers or engineers or smt else. I have a 3.2 gpa I’m so cooked. I have As in everything except a C in math and a B in history but it’s gen so hard. I’m actually embarrassed and I truly believe im stupid. I searched up the highest unweighted gpa I could get and someone said 3.8 and that’s only if u get As every semester and that’s literally impossible for me

Hi everyone!
I'm conducting a research and I need to do a pilot study to test a simplified version of a metacognition scale, and I need your help! The survey should only take about 5 minutes of your time, and all responses are 100% anonymous.

High school students only!

Thank you so much for your help!!

Every fucking day feels like i have to be someone im not in order to "fit in" with these idiots, everyone is a fucking moron, obsessed with cigarettes drinking and vapes, and overall sick shit, Calling me Dumb and "the quiet kid" To the point of my entire town now calls me (Dumb "My name") They even started a fucking rumor about how i Am a zoophile and fuck dogs, And NO person can't fucking say hello to me without mentioning the stupid overloaded joke that i fuck dogs, Not a single day goes by in school that they call me a gay, zoophile showing me dog pictures and touching my thing to see if i am hard, Theyd slap me hit the back of my head, punch me randomly for no reason, choke me etc..

Every single time i jumble my words or mess up (i have adhd and communication problems) They would make it sound like i am the dumbest fucker out there, I have to be someone im fucking not, just so i can "fit in" with these fucking shit stains of humans.

Girls have treated me like absolute shit and terribly, In middle school i was apparently a sort of creep to them, they'd avoid me like the plague, when i wasn't in any sort of communication with them I never talked to them, never even looked their way, And yet i was some how found a creep to the point of a Girl sobbing because she was paired up with me for a school dance i didn't even go to in the end,

Every single fucking girl treated me like shit, From middle school to highschool.

Every single conversation a girl felt like some fucking game to keep her entertained, cause if i don't have those qualities then I'd be a fucking weirdo to them, beacuse they expect me to have adventures and tales for them to listen to every day i have to be built like a greek god for them to have the slightest bit of interest, i have to go and drink alcohol take drugs and go to loud parties which i despise to "fit in"

And when I attempted to have a bit of fun by playing a little skribblio game, with them, they Called me a dumb idiot and kicked me out because i was dumb and slow

All of these fucking morons can fucking die I don't care, every day i wake up hoping they die or get lung cancer from those usb sticks they suck on every day, i have to endure 2 more years of this bullshit of being treated like dirt and bullying and everything,

I’ve got a bunch of handwritten notes and questions from class for my kid, and typing them out every time just to search for answers is a pain.

Is there any app or tool where you can just scan the question (even if it’s handwritten) and get a decent answer or explanation? Bonus if it works well for subjects like physics or math.

Would love to know what’s worked for you guys

Anyone need a dress for prom? I can ship it out to y’all, just lmk!

I'm going to be a senior next year, bur I have no clue where to go to school. My highschool offers an early college program that I was accepted into which allows for students to get direct college credits, however I'm not sure if the better option is to stay in highschool my senior year, take 3 more aps to weight my gpa and maybe do stuco, or go to college instead. For reference I really want to go to UCLA or Rice, both very competitive schools- I have a 4.111 gpa weighted and 4.0 unweighted. If I go to early college my class rank will drop because I can only take one ap as an early bird (currently eighth in my grad class). However, college would allow for more opportunities like research papers. Not to mention I have close friends in both and it hurts so much to leave them- +I'm not sure how I feel about leaving highschool so early. Any advice on what the best opportunity is? Keep in mind the early college is at a community college, nothing fancy, but my school is also a public one so...

It's that time of year where my school forces us to choose classes for next year.

I feel kinda guilty though because I'm taking theatre and an easy science class at my local community college. Everyone else who I talk to are trying to take 5 AP classes, 3 college classes and some intership or leadership thing outside of school. I know junior year is important but I also want to not be an anxious, sleep deprived mess next year.

I'm hoping to apply to a UC but if I don't get in then community college exists and I can transfer to a UC (I live in California for context).

Am I throwing away my entire life by doing this?

So I wanted to switch to English Honors, as I am realizing that regular English is gonna get harder next year, so I emailed my consoler asking if I can switch before the school year starts, and she said the administration will send out an google form to request a schedule change. So even tho she said yeah you can, people are still telling me it's not possible. Idk, does anyone know if it's possible to get into Honors if you're currently doing well in your regular class? Please lmk

do the electives you take really matter? i’m stuck on what to choose.. i believe we have to take a year of any sort of arts and two years of a language.

at my school we have visual arts which has art, ceramics, and jewelry then we have performing arts which has beginning guitar, competitive speech and debate, concert band, global music, percussion ensemble, theatre, singing/voice, and rock band. then we have languages which are only arabic and spanish and the same classes but for native speakers and additional ones are avid and yearbook.

some advice i’ve heard is to not take avid for my first year because it’ll weigh down my gpa? and im not sure which to choose because some electives sound hard but why would i waste my time if there are easier ones to do. i was also told sophomore year i’ll have a chance to do a language class at my local community college which can be finished in about three months (i believe). which is way better than two years..

what should i dooo?!

Last year, me and this friend were in the same class. For english classes, she would always ask me to send them my essay, one day before it was due. I wanted to say no, but I did not want to lose the friendship with her, so I ended up sending it. This happened 3 times.

This year, we're still in the same class and again for english class we have to write an essay. The friend texted me asking if I could it to her (we're doing it on the same topic). Again, it's a day before the due date and I want to refuse but I don't want to hurt her feelings and I don't want her to be angry with me, but I'm getting tired of it.

What should I do?

I got invited to the medicine and Healthcare, but it's pretty pricey and from what I can tell it's basically a summer camp to give you experience, no real reward or help with a scholarship

bit of context

Junior year, US History course, 7 students in the class

The first semester went lovely, my teacher is one of the best people I've ever met, I was doing well, loving the course. Second semester, some douchebag gets transferred over from another school and he joins my US History class. He now regularly makes smart remarks and gets the class off about 8-11 times a day. He and his new friend, another student just constantly make off topic remarks and questions and it is wearing my teacher's patience. I love this teacher, he's the nicest guy on Earth and he's been my favorite teacher ever. Now, Douchebag supreme over here is ruining it for both me and him. I'm not completely absolved from blame here either, the whole year I'd make quick off topic remarks or questions, just for fun, but never to this POS's degree.

He's also just a bastard.

Is it me or do teachers seem to respond quicker to a classroom fight when it’s a boy vs girl? A teacher came flying into break the fight up in 5-10 seconds after she got called. Also why does it seem like female teachers arrive first to classroom fights before male teachers do?

I wanted to be the best student I could be. So good I’d shock everyone with my intelligence, but mistake after mistake caused me to fall behind and now I feel nothing but regret. In my freshman year, I took an algebra 1 cp class and scored a final grade of an 89. I could’ve done better but as a kid, I was lazy. My friends all got to algebra 2 honors because they took geometry as a summer prerequisite course after freshman year. I was saddened that they were moving ahead of me, but by the time I realized how I had felt it was already too late. I was stuck in geometry cp for the entirety of my sophomore year.

Now, they’re all moving on to APs and Honors classes for their junior year next year, meanwhile I’m stuck in all cp. they’ll be in calculus bc and precalculus and I’ll be stuck with freshman and sophomores as a junior. I was hoping I could take an algebra 2 honors course over the summer after sophomore year to catch up with how much progress I’ve missed. I want to succeed just like all the smart kids at my school not just my friends. However, I was informed by the math department chairperson that my school didn’t approve of algebra 2 courses over the summer because of how extensive it is.

So, I’ll be stuck in classes full of freshman and sophomores as a junior because I was too stupid to look out for myself from the start. I genuinely feel like I’ve failed. I don’t know what else to do. I don’t want to be left behind. I started self-studying algebra 2, trigonometry, precalculus, and calculus just so I can prove that I’m keeping up with the rest of my grade, but that’s not the same as attending the actual classes.

I know it’s petty and pathetic , but I’ve considered suicide because I don’t think I’ll amount to anything after high school. I’ve ruined every chance I had at success, I don’t think there’s another path for me to take. What should I do? Is there anything to do? I don’t know what step I should take next.

Sorry if my post was incoherent but I hope you understand what I mean.

Hello everyone, I'm in Pre-IB Spanish 2, and my teacher absolutely sucks at her job (This is really long so bear with me).

To give a little background: I am in the 9th grade IB program, and my class isn't very big, maybe 20 kids at most. Not only that, we are IB INDIAN KIDS, like smart, smart kids. Almost every single kid in this class has straight A's and has probably never gotten an email home (let alone a referral).

To start off: It started near the beginning of the school year, when I was goofing off with a friend, and she sent an email home. I wasn't too mad, because it wasn't that crazy of her to send an email home for me talking loudly. But after this event, she KEPT SENDING EMAILS. She said that I keep talking across the room (she sat me by myself), I use my phone all the time (?????), and I keep sleeping and not doing work (BTW I HAVE STRAIGHT A's). And the one time the IB assistant principal came in, she wrote me an EMAIL HOME for talking during the lesson. Like you would think this would be the end of it, but from what I understand, I have gotten almost 6 emails home, 3 lunch detentions, multiple emails forwarded to counselors and assistant principals, and a call home (my parents didn't see almost half the emails because she SENT THEM TO ME BY ACCIDENT BRO).

Finally, we had a test, and I forgot to put my phone up in her "phone holder," and I put my hand in my pocket, and she got up from her seat to walk around, and she saw me put my hand in my pocket, walked to me, and asked what was in my pocket. I said my phone, and she took my phone and said, "You're getting a 0 for cheating." After the test, she said she was changing her mind and giving me A REFERRAL. I literally got on my hands and knees (practically) to do anything but a referral, but she wasn't budging and just said, "No, no chico, talk to administration." I genuinely don't know what to do because I'm pretty sure the IB assistant principal thinks I'm a bad kid, and I have a parent-teacher meeting with the IB assistant principal. What should I do, bro?

Side note: On 3/28/2025, I got ANOTHER REFERRAL from my science teacher because I had FBLA a couple days ago, and I had the day excused, but the buses came like 5 hours late, so we had to go back to class. I already skipped almost half of 4th period and had to still eat lunch, so I didn't go to 4th period and went to 5th period. That day, she processed the referral, but I don't think it was that serious because I didn't receive any punishment. I am almost 80% sure the parent-teacher conference is for my Spanish teacher, but I don't know if they will bring up this referral as well.

ANOTHER MASSIVE SIDE NOTE: I AM BY NO MEANS A BAD KID. I have straight A's, Indian, national FBLA winner, in several clubs, and I am doing an internship for biomedical engineering. Multiple other kids complain about her and receive emails home, lunch detentions, and several other things, even though they are IB INDIAN STRAIGHT A KIDS. I genuinely care about my high school career, and I want to go to a really good college, but now I'm scared if it will all be ruined by my STUPID SPANISH TEACHER.

What should I do, bro? Talk to the IB assistant principal? Try getting all my friends to fire her LMAO? Or just cry and beg to not get a referral and thug it out for the rest of the year? Or should I try switching schools, bro? And am I really the one at fault here? I have no idea. Please help, bro. I don't know if I'm cooked for high school. I can maybe try appealing this, but IDK.
