Fearless said:Bah, next you'll get banned for not eating enough sugar, fat and looking too thin compared to other students.
tool said:I don't know, it really doesn't matter. As both punishments end up with the student not being able to do school work, may aswell give the student the better punishment which is suspending them so they stay at home.
The parents took the kid out of the school anyways and are finding a new one for her.
BillyBadAss said:At my school we could do work in detention, and Saturday School. That doesn't make sense.
tool said:All the schools i've gone to they didn't really let you do homework in detention, or it was very limited. Just each school having very different policys on how detention works.
tool said:one school I went to, if you had detention on the day of a test or any projects or homework assignments were due that day you automatically fail the tests and projects. Of course this was for a middleschool anyways, grades don't mean anything in middleschool so its a big deal. I don't even remember what my highschools policy was on detentions.
Fat chance of that. Might as well let her be raised by apes. At least then she can swing through the trees and have a kickass battle cry.Her parents said they will home school Deirdre until they find a more "reasonable" school.
Crash24 said:Ouch. I nearly failed the 7th grade because I was caught burning bugs with a magnifying glass. The best part was that the dozen other kids burning stuff all had parents that were big doners to the private school - so the faculty wouldn't punish them (yet they'll give the kid on financial aid a good working over). I was to recieve an "F" in science for "abuse of an instrument" and I had to talk to the county fire marshall about safety.
My parents transferred me to a public school and we never looked back.
