Top Ten Reasons Why School Is Great

This is honestly the stupidest list ever. Everyday I get tortured with bullies and whenever I try to tell an adult or teacher they always be like "you're lying we always keep out bullies here". Everyday I have P.E. and whenever I get in the teams I get kicked out and they say "Katy we already have 10 you need to go" and I came like 4 minutes before them. And no Animefan12, I used to have a friend who moved out of my school and we were friends and everyday I try to talk to her, I always get yelled out by a teacher the second I try talking to them. Whoever made this list was either a brainiac nerd or a 5 year old who has been taught by their kindergarten teacher that school rocks. Smh...

Yeah, no... Most of the time you're friends turn out to be backstabbers. If you want friends that will stay your friends, find Asian and Indian people. They most of the time turn out to be the most trustworthy. (No, I'm not racist. This is what I found out by experience and observation in High School.)

I know a lot of people always say they don't have friends in their School but luckily for me, I make friends with mostly upper graders. We always talk about games everyday and he at least cares about me and respect each others opinion on something.

Believe me, if you had friends like mine, you'd never want to go to school again. Our friendships just go on and off, on and off, on and off...you get the idea, right?

I hate gym! I'm terrible at it and I usually get hit in the face with a ball! At least one person has to trip each gym class! Besides, I thought sports were meant to be fun - there's no point grading us on them! And when you're the worst at sports/exercises in your class, despite being the smartest in everything else, you have to deal with some pretty painful taunts.

Yeah, the idiots skip it all they like and chill out while the rest of us, either thuggish jocks or people who actually care about school because of expectations, have to spend hours running around. I'm not sporty and personally, playing sport with screaming boys and girls who can't control their hormones terrifies me.

Has to be the best subject there is. The only subject other than English and Math that I am taking every year, no matter what in High School (Going into Grade 11)

It's good if you're not too fat and not too skinny. Oh, wait... Yeah, most kids high school metabolism sucks. It just depends on your body and training.

Wait wait wait, What is friendship?

Hanging with them is epic

This + drama = sweet

The best time of school is recess. I have always been the first to finish eating. Recess starts at 12:20 and I finish eating by 12:30.

I never have recess...

I never had recess. ever

Recess doesn't exist in middle school and up :(

Someone should make a top 10 list to give me some ideas

And getting revenge on them for being mean to you! >:D

I cried on my first day of school in kindergarten because I wanted to stay with my family. And I still love to up to this day! (Of course, I don’t cry about it LOL)

Yes, don't you just love it when there's strangers sitting next to you?

Aw hell yeah.

Not if they're towards you for years on end by people who can't get bored of the same joke. This happened to me, and they would call me the same name as a demoralizing joke for years. I got over it, they still haven't up to adult years.

Yeah sometimes it was fun to tease teachers and students

Is this actually the GOOD things about school list?

I love jokes is so fun and entertaiment

Yeah the only thing th@ make school fun is field trips

What you talking about...oh wait this was school in UK.

Once you get into high school, they don't exist.

Man I love these

"Anyone who doesn't think so is a retard."
Mate, there could be someone who is extremely successful and smart who didn't even like math as a school subject. Some people like it, some people don't. Piss off with that stuff.

Yes, math! One of the best and most helpful subjects of the day. Anyone who doesn't think so is a retard.

Math is awesome!

Then they hate you for literally no reason. Happened in high school and had to regain their trust because they forgot who I was.

Once I wrote an essay about vomit and I got an A+ on it

It depends where you live. I think in the US, lots of schools don't have to wear school uniform. But where I live, all the schools including mine need all students to wear school uniform. My school is very strict of everyone wearing their school uniform. I much prefer to wear casual clothing!

Um, I've had to wear uniforms all through my school life, which is currently... 10 years. Nice to see that I've had my creativity oppressed for a decade.

In my school you have to wear one and as always they make the belt too tight.

Tell them or just sneak out loosen it then go back its super easy

Actually my school has a strict policy about dreesing. We have to wear uniforms and that sucks.

Really? By sitting on your bum all day? And no, my teacher is very bad at teaching so nah.

You mean group projects where you do all the work and everyone takes credit? Ha, fun.

These don't exist, lmao.

If some parts of it didn't exist, lives would be far better in America. But of course, administration wants more money in their pockets over here so they won't fix anything AT ALL.

Yeah this is right since if we didn't know anything we would sure be dumb and helpless plus we gotta know math to exchange money.

If it never existed life would be way less crappy

Oops I voted for this. No offense, but school is awful. I mean it's useful, but teachers way too many unnecessary projects and abuse there power. They give detentions for uniform violations. That's just stupid.

Closest thing to what I thought.
Free school is a gift, and education is so valuable! I love to learn, and while it may be annoying at times, I remember it's a true privilege. Especially after learning about Malala.

No, it makes you pessimistic and unhappy. It may be considered a true privilege as we live in a first (or second) world country, but it doesn't help us much.

! At my school we had to do 50 crunches for the girls.

See section 32 - also I don't have a crush

Yeah that's good because you get to trick them like whenever

Most people never end up getting a job they studied for. Let alone become successful and manage a family nowadays because life is worse for teenagers now compared to about 30 years ago. Unless you go to Harvard (Lucky you, you stayed in the education system and never learned how corrupt it was,) you're basically stuck in a ditch.
