Just a small rant about what I've been told yesterday.
Apparently because I'm 18, I cannot go to public school anymore. Now, I know I'm not the best kid in the world. I didn't make the perfect grades, I didn't even finish my last month of school, and I barely even paid attention in class when/if I did. That still doesn't give them the right to just tell me I cannot go to school. I was planning on passing this year and going to college next year. I had planned my whole future based upon going back to school in August. They even sent my report card saying "Your child will be in 12th grade the following school year" in June. When in the world did they decide this?
My mother posted on facebook about this. She has a few teachers of the county added and they commented saying that this was something new that they hadn't heard of. The principal's excuse for not allowing me? He would have to allow all the trouble making 18 year olds who want to learn back in.
As my fellow posters, I ask of you. Were they right in baring my access to public education?
