How many high schools have you attended? email this discussion to a friend?

I have only been to 2 high schools in my life and it would have been only one if I hadn't moved. So many of my friends have been to 3 or more highschools. Sometimes because they moved, but mostly just cuz their parents transfered them or else they got kicked out. I don't understand it. It seems pretty crazy to me. I'm not exactly an angel and yet I haven't had so many problems to be forced to leave a school. So what's your story? How many highschools have you been a student to and why? (If you are comfortable sharing) Were they all close to eachother, perhaps in the same school district? Or were they spread far out, perhaps in different states or countries?

I have been only to one highschool. Basically because in what I have seen and experienced, most of the time, you graduate highschool where you have started it. Not unless you move to another place that is really far away from your current school. We are use to traveling a long way just to be able to attend the highschool of your choice. Granted that there are highschools that are nearer in your place, if that is not the highschool that you want to go to, you could choose. Provided of course, that you could afford to go to the highschool of your choice and your allowance could accomodate the fare it needs to go to the highschool of your choice.

That's cool. happyI think that it is easier to stay in the same school. A lot of schools have different graduation requirments and things like that, so you don't feel lost at all if you stay in the same school. My first high school sucked,so I was glad to switch to a school with more opportunity. ninja

That's good that you liked all your schools. Usually people who have attended many schools usually had problems with them, which is usually the reason why they had been to so many in the first place. I'm glad you had a good time in school.

I only attended one high school, and one junior high, however elementary school was a different subject. We moved kinda often so I went to 4 or 5 elementary schools, not counting pre-school. I was glad we didn't move during my high school years. It was fun having all the same friends for 3 years and all graduating together. My oldest daughter went to one high school also, and my youngest attended two high schools, but they were within 10 miles of each other.


myLot reputation of 94/100. _sketch_ (860)   ranked 86 out of 4,509 in student  4 months ago

Yeah. It was pretty hard for me to have to move away from all my friends and make new ones, so having only one high school must have been great for you.

I've only been to one. I think transferring to schools can be annoying! My one cousin did go to three but that was because he moved two times (first he went to the high school with my brother, then he went to high school in Minnesota & then he had to come back here & finish school so he went to a different high school). My friends went to one high school like me.

I think it's silly to go to 2-3 just because the student cannot do the work--then don't apply to the school if you don't think you are fit for it. It probably looks bad, too! They see you started at a good school got bad grades (or got kicked out) & then went to another school.

HAND!

I feel the same way. It is usually best to stay in one school.

I have attended only 1 high school as well. happy Well, that was the most memorable time period when I was still studying. We were so happy and me and my classmates were in the same section for the entire 4 years. We learned a lot, we grew a lot, and right now, they're still my friends and we still keep in contact. I'm not that far away from my high school and so were my classmates back then.

It was one of the happiest and one of my most accomplished years of my life. That was the time I met my current fiancee as well. She was also one of my classmates. happy


myLot reputation of 94/100. _sketch_ (860)   ranked 86 out of 4,509 in student  4 months ago

That's great! lol I think that that is wonderful that you are still in contact with your high school friends. For a lot of people that is not the case. I have just finished high school last year and I've already lost contact with most of the people I knew already.

I have attended 4 different high school..well for only a change so i decided that every year I should change my school, but anyway it was fun I meet alot of new friends..


myLot reputation of 94/100. _sketch_ (860)   ranked 86 out of 4,509 in student  4 months ago

That's cool. Change is a great way to keep from getting bored. I'm sure changing schools every year kept you from getting bored with school and probably helped you want to stay in school. I know I was getting sick of the same old thing every day. I got senioritis my junior year. lol.

I had three high schools. I was never a problem of any school, it's just that my parents were just mobile.


myLot reputation of 94/100. _sketch_ (860)   ranked 86 out of 4,509 in student  4 months ago

Did you like moving around so much or was it hard on you? My mom moved every year when she was in junior high and high school and she hated it cuz she always had to leave her friends.


myLot reputation of 96/100. djoyce71 (1234)   ranked 9 out of 4,509 in student  4 months ago

It was a bit hard for me to adjust to every new environment. It was also hard to leave friends.


myLot reputation of 94/100. _sketch_ (860)   ranked 86 out of 4,509 in student  4 months ago

Yeah. Well at least you didn't get bored with the same-old, same-old every day.

I only been to 1 High School. I think that would be great actually to move to few high schools. The way I see it this time is the world is changing rapidly and people are meeting other people from other countries and I think moving more as early as you can will help you to build self confidence for the future. This will be challenging but thats the world is all about. Build yourself as early as you can.


myLot reputation of 94/100. _sketch_ (860)   ranked 86 out of 4,509 in student  4 months ago

Yeah. I get what you are saying. High school is all about preparing for life, so that would really help.
