theres been allott of busted threads latley so i was jus wondering something....

i graduated a fiew years ago so my facts are not completly straight.... but...... how is it that all these kids get in trouble on the weekends and the school is able to takes action diciplining for somthing off campus....

arnt school and your personal life seperate..... this shit is rediculous and it completly ruins any seperation between school and home... its very invading and there has to be some limits on how much a school can take action/ be involved in...

any body been suspended or gotten in trouble cuz of somthing that completly happend off campus and off school hrs?

what happend?

i dont think this is legit at all.

i once spent an hour talking to a principal in the office because a teacher saw my friend and i playing with airsoft guns on a saturday about 10 miles away from school. one of my friends was suspended for beating up another student on a friday night at a party.
it's bullshit, they shouldn't be allowed to punish students for what they do when they aren't at school, they should leave that up to the parents or the police.

i hate that too man. it pisse's me the fuck off when school interfere's with your personal life and suspends you for doing something that was not at school or school related. Its fucking bullshit. I havnt even had a personal experience but it still makes me mad.

I know a couple friends who have had experiences like this though, mostly from convo's on msn. one that happened a couple weeks ago was one grils called another girl a fucking bitch and a slutty fucking whore, and the other one said shit back( it wasnt cyber bullying, they were both saying equally hurtfull things. they are just kinda enemies) and then they both got suspended for a week. like wtf.

wow, i've never heard of some of these rules, but it seems like they would lose a law suit.

when i was attending public schools I got into quite a bit of trouble, but I was always happy the school took control of the situation instead of the state.

for instance: one time in high school some kid tried to run over me in the parking lot, literally. i jumped on his hood and held on until he stopped and shot me off his hood in the area where the buses picked everyone up in the front of the school. After that I started stomping in his roof. He tried to fight me on school property and things got broken up. As he drove away I ran to my friends car and began to chase him off campus. I finally caught up to him at a red light a few miles away from the school, ran up to the driver side of his car and pounded his face in.

well the next day at school i was pulled out of class by the police and they told me i was under arrest for assault. I explain the story and they said i could press vehicular manslaughter charges on this kid. i told them to tell the kid and his parents that and they dropped the charges.  however, instead they told the principle to suspend us.

so rather than court costs and the legal pains of that situation, I was happy to take a 5 day break from school.

______________________________________

but that's just one story....i have so many. damn i was a terrible kid, but kids jsut so you know. you don't need a high school degree to goto college. if you'r over 19 you can attend any university through their continueing education programs. that's how i got into CU with a GED and 4 years full of F's from high school. Now I'm a 3.3 gpa student with one year left on an accounting degree.

nothing like that happened to me but i have so many stories. i was also a horrible kid. but once i got to highschool i somehow magically matured. I never did crazy rediculous things ( well once in grade 5 but i really dont want to type some long ass story on how i suposidly 'brought a bomb to school") but i usually just got in trouble because i didnt care what teachers said. unlike most kids at that age i was not scared what so ever to talk back  and hated it when adults bossed me around.

It still happens though, my little inner "badness"( i guess you could call it that) surface's everyonce in a while with teachers i do not agree with. lol, i have never in the history of my highschool/ middle school classe's ever got along with a religion teacher...NEVER. I have a bad one this year too( im in grade 10 now)

holy fuck that is the dumbest thing i have ever heard. I actually WANT my school to do that so i can laugh in their fucking face's when they have no control on who i see outside of school and who i talk, call or text.

If my school had that rule i would just grab one of my friends( were really close...its a she just incase your worried) and make out with her right infront of the principal.

but honestly that is just fucked.

Some kid from my school took a shit on a subway (train not sandwich place) and got kicked out cus he had the school's homecoming shirt on that said our school's name.
But, how stupid could you possibly be that you pull down your pants and shit on a subway seat?  And while wearing a shirt with the name of the school on it nonetheless.  And he was on the subway closest to our school.

On another note: it is bullshit how schools interfere with personal life.  My school doesn't do this much, they still do it to an extent, but I go to a private school so I think that the parents and alumni would flip shit if they started interfering too much.

Schools frequently overstep their authority, but overall, I think its a good idea to have outside of school behavior noted and acted upon.

when i was in grade 11 they wouldnt let my boyfriend and I be together on school grounds or during school hours. no notes, no texting, no ANYTHING, all because we skipped one class together.
we werent allowed to pass eachother in the hallway and say hi. my school only had 294 people in it. he always had an escort between classes. it was sooooooooooooooooo retarded. 

but the outside of school thing thats retarded
i also dont understand how schools can randomly drug test anyone.... that would never happen in BC...or in Canada. I had never heard of that before NS.

wow this shit is ridiculous.  basically because of complaining parents and lawsuits, schools are getting harsher and harsher.  I want a school like fast times at ridgemont high.  back in the day people smoked cigs in the bathroom, got to leave school for lunch, and called each other names without any fear.

in middle school the principal told me he was considering throwing assault charges at me for gently bumping into a teacher.  i knew he was bluffing but I did have to sit for over 2 hours getting grilled.  their rationale was because the teacher came in literally in tears, I must have done something really nasty.  I explained the logical fallacy of their argument, but apparently this was way over their heads.  the woman obviously had a nervous breakdown and this set her over the edge.

yeah dude, my schools is messed up. one of my teachers is like a Nazi, he comes up with all these stupid rules, like if we wanted to go from the lower building to the upper buildin at our school (which are seperate) WE HAD TO HOLD A ROPE. We all just made fun of it and he got really pissed so they took it out.

Well, here in Boulder its simple business.

All the cops in this town have one purpose: DRINKING TICKETS

They could care less that thousands of bikes are stolen every year and that there is alot of theft in South and East Boulder. They generate hundreds of thousands of dollars a SEMESTER through student related drinking tickets, the majority of which happen off campus.

The police report it to the school adn then the school gets to make even more money buy charging you for retarded alcohol classes.

I had some great professors here, but administratively CU is a blood-sucking greed factory.

Needless to say, they have received ZERO Alumni donation from me.

I can't speak to public schools because I didn't go to public high school, but at my private school you had to sign a contract that said you would conduct yourself in a way that represented the school in a good light no matter when or where. Through this they could take action against you pertaining to actions that were taken on the weekend. I assume this is the same way that schools take action against the people in this thread who also go to private school. Public school is a different story. It would seem that because school is a requirement and public school is the government provided remedy to said requirement, that the administration wouldn't be able to take action when things happened outside of school that did not involve the state aka police.

Yeah man our school's gotten so bitchy now.  No hoodies, hats, holes in pants.  No music at all, not even during your free period.  They have to be in your locker, or else they'll confiscate them (fuck that).  You cant ride a bike off campus during lunch, you have to walk (fuck that).  Cellphones have to be in your locker, and if they see something that looks like a phone in your pocket, they'll take it and search it. 

A friend is diabetic, and has an insulin monitor, and has been called out by teachers so many times because he wears tight pants and its super visible.  It's hilarious to see the look on their face when they get bitchslapped after thinking they're so smart.

it's so gay what schools can do.

here's a story:

my friend was with a bunch of other kids/homies at lunch on the last day of school and his friends were smoking weed. ok, big deal right? no, this special ed. kid who was smoking by himself rats them out and my friend, who wasn't even smoking was forced to go to a drug rehab program/class and got a 10 day suspension.

the snitchery and gayness is horrible

i hate school rules

I can some what understand why private schools would pull shit like this but really public school have no right to do it.

I got in a lot of fights when I was little but the most bull shit one was in grade 7 when I turned around from my locker to put something in my bag I bumped into this gangsta kid and he popped one in my face so I fought back and I was the one who got suspended I was pretty pissed.

this is invasion of privacy for schools to be going through phones, and facebook/myspace accounts. How is it allowed? If any teacher called me out and requested to go through my phone I would straight tell them no and take my phone back.

Just take the battery out and give it to them, no possibility of them turning it on and looking through your shit

If they request the battery just say why, I can't phone or text anyone with a battery can I?

If they still persist they're obviously trying to look through your phone so just straight up claim it and tell them if they want to look at your personal info call up the police and tell them to get a warrant
