Childhood Memory - School Years

You remember a lot about school Courtney! I went to school all over the place (except for elementary all 8 yrs the same with the nuns in Catholic School). I barely went to high school here as I was always taking off with friends lol. But I did live overseas in England and went to school there to college in Oxford as well. I took English Lit and Art. Those were my best. I did a little bit of business school typing, accounting, etc. Then I went to hairdressing school later on.

Still sounds like you should be proud. you did right by your child and still got the GED. my favorite was spelling, english, and such but school was a lot different back then. much easier. even though i too was terrible at math. i had one math teacher in 4th grade that i hated because he seemed to choose me to pick on to the point of even making fun of me and looking straight at me saying i had that "dumb" look on my face. today a person could probably sue over that. most teachers i had i liked and they seemed to like me. 9th grade was great cause my spanish teacher took a special interest in me and helped me a lot even though all the boys were crazy about her cause she was beautiful. lol. one male teacher was also the best looking and most fun guy we could have. i used to imagine they would get together but don't know if they ever did as i dropped out to elope with my first husband. sorry this is way too long

I miss school life. I'm 35 now and finished school when I'm 20. My favorite is elementary years because life is easy and fun lots of playing. Highschool is quite hard for me as I am in a private school. College is easy for me because it's just public school or university. I miss having classmates and being busy with school requirements

My grade school years were all right. I had lots of friends. In grade 7 I struggled, that was after my brain tumor was removed. I looked different then everyone else did because they had to shave my head. Kids can be mean, and I remember it well, but I made up my mind then that I wouldn't act like that since I knew how it made someone feel. High school for me was like you describe it, drama and rumours. But I had fun also, I started and was basically a tomboy, but matured and became a young lady during those years. I still have 2 wonderful friends from my school years, one of them I met in grade 7.

I loved kindergarten. My teacher was awesome (I actually worked with her later as an adult,) I had a ton of friends, and life was just simple and easy. Then came first grade...and I started being bullied by some of the other kids. I wasn't popular anymore, I became really shy and anxious and got migraines a lot. My teacher was mean and I didn't have many friends. Second grade was somewhat better, I had my best friend in my class every year from second to fifth grade, which made school bearable. Although around fifth grade I stopped caring too much about school and spent my days daydreaming, which often got me in trouble. Middle school was hell. My best friend chose to go to a different school and my other closest friend ditched me. I was all alone in a new world and I hated it. I was bullied relentlessly by various groups of "mean girls," was seriously depressed, and often thought of killing myself. The only thing that got me through school was going home and listening to music, losing myself in books, and the stories that I came up with. High school was okay the first year, although I didn't especially enjoy it. I had a new group of friends by then and they made school bearable. But by the end of my freshman year they all started acting weird and I knew I wasn't going to come back. The Columbine Shooting and all the copycats happened that spring, so I became afraid to go to school, especially with rumors that there was a hit list going around. I ended up coming back for a few weeks my sophomore year but then I left school to go on independent studies. Which meant I got to stay home, met with a teacher at the alternative school once a week to take tests and turn in my work packet, and focus on fun things like creative writing and art. I had the same teacher for the rest of "high school," and she was the one who encouraged me to keep writing and drawing. If not for her, I may have never developed my artistic abilities. Of course, sometimes I wonder if staying home for high school made me the way I am today -- I don't want to work outside the home, and I hate dealing with people. I have bad social anxiety. But...maybe the jerks at school are the ones who made me that way. Overall I don't regret leaving public school, although I occasionally regret missing out on the typical high school experiences...which I probably would have been excluded from, anyway.

My elementary years were not so good as I was sickly. I enjoyed my high school years and not sick anymore. My favorite subjects were literature, English, Tagalog and History. I hate Chemistry and Physic.

I have worked hard for many years to forget school. There's nothing memorable for me there.

I remember when I was in the 5th grade my teacher took me to see her daughter perform in a concert, that's was so awesome. I had never did anything with my teachers before outside of school. Her daughter played the piano and she was really good. I miss my fifth grade teacher she really cared for me genuinely.
