National Skip Day

[XSafire]

^
1.) Your Sick (as in health)
2.) Why?
3.) My Spring Break was 3 weeks ago
4.) I Go to school 5 days a week from 7:00am-2:45pm. thats almost 8 Hours, screw your six.
4.5.) I do work. 20 hour weeks. And unfortunately you don't normally work 6 days a week. It's normally 5 depending on the Job. Almost any kind of industry/business job doesn't work on Sunday.

Eh lol what if some teachers find out and already notify the office about it lol!

ooo were soo bad


do you know how many teachers probably come on this site. 1 then he/she leaves because they see dumb fags like you.

 

[Decisive]

Already skipped to many times. one more day and I'll have pass my final exam to pass. So I'm going to have to skip national skip day.

 

[deadzone]

I couldn't tell if you were serious because that was a bunch of bullshit. Let me try to understand this...



Okay, so they take roll on skip day (which is of coarse is expected as it is not a holiday) and then they take their results and it shows how much the school "Gets" next year. Gets what? Free tickets to subway?



"So yes" to what? You haven't proven anything yet as all you have said it shows how much the school will get next year (Which could be anything from money to amount of people skipping). So then the school lowers its standards based on its loss of whatever it "gets" and therefore gives me a lesser education then what is required by the state, so therefore I get kicked out on the streets with all my recent knowledge erased and by intellectual has been returned to that of my preschool days?
Sorry to tell you this buddy, but a high school education is a high school education. Yes there are some schools that have much better educational systems and you can easily go to college easier and be prepared for it by attending those schools, but it wont lower my knowledge and put me out on the streets as you say.

Also, I attend school in Virginia. Kentucky, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Virginia are the only states in the US who have a Commonwealth, which basically means we huge standards that we have to make, compared to other school systems. Some schools are set on a lower grading scale in which a

90-100 A
80-89 B
70-79 C
60-69 D
59-0 F (Or something along those lines)

Our grading scale is based on the following

94-100 A
87-93 B
77-86 C
70-76 D
69-0 F

So thats a 10% difference overall from a passing to failing.

Out of all the schools in America, these 4 have the hardest testing, grading, and placement ten all the US. This doesn't mean no one else uses this grading scale, but we do have a higher overall rate of education.

Why did I mention this? Because I am showing you there is no way I am getting put out on the streets for making A's and B's in a Commonwealth school.

Now that you are properly educated, I will continue.

One day out of 180 days of school, missing one day is a mere 0.5555555555555556%. Out of all your High School career, missing one day is an even smaller 0.1388888888888889%. Missing one day will make you miss 8 hours out of 1440 total hours of one school year. Now think how many hours a year you sleep, mess around, and strait up not paying attention in school. My guess it is probably over 8 hours. This doesn't even account for bathroom/water/etc breaks you take from class.
So even if your in school, your still missing a couple of days of educational time a year.

Now I conclude that skipping one day of school intentionally will not affect your education any percent worth mentioning overall. Even if every student in your school didn't attend school that day, the worst that would happen is a threat from the principle saying that He/She is very disappointed in the student body's attitude toward school, and that it needs to be takes seriously. The state isn't going to deduct anything from your school for skipping one day, and surely isn't going to ruin the rest of your life.

your obviously a idiot, no more than 10 years old, you obviously have no idea how "national skip day" started, little tards (such as yourself) thought it would be cool to skip on the day that the school gives it's enrollement over to the state in which they figure how many kids will be there next year on average and they give the school so much MONEY per student here in michigan it's like 22k per child for the whole year (that covers food, gas for bus's, books, computers , and teacher funds and the other resources you get at school) and the fact that your little tard-ass couldn't figure out what i said I'm guessing your dumb enough to skip?

as for the rest of what i said let me put that into perspective so a small little fragile mind such as yours can comprehend it without hurting yourself.

what is your school going to do without the money to support your sorry little ass? there gonna take the money away from other kids. in which will take the schools funds even more, now you don't have enough computers for everyone, do it another year go ahead, now you don't have enough teachers for all the class's and you gotta over populate school rooms again? now your school is extremely poor can't afford those little fix-ups here and there. and now your school looks like shit

so by doing that, not only did you make your school be a shitty highschool (ie none of the good college's will give 2 shits about kids from your school) but your intellectual abilities were studdered now you will be behind if you decide to go to college. so you go to college but oh my you didn't learn everything you would have if you had that money to fund the proper things needed. so alas you waste your mommy and daddies well earned money and drop out (because you know you can't get a good job to pay for college if you only have a highschool degree) and now your reduced to working at a gas station or saying "would you like fries with that?" for the rest of your life

now I know now your going to tell me oh but my daddy has a job and he said he would give me one, or I can get a job anywhere because I am smart. no your an idiot. anymore it don't matter if your a genius it's the degrees that matter. and as for daddy giving you a job, wow you make a little over minimum wage congrats your lower middle class. and even then you can still be fired if your gonna be lazy because i'm sure you don't know this yet but work is just like school you have to do it every day.

Im not even gonna tear down your post this time, as I realize there is no point in arguing with someone who gets there facts from a cereal box.

First off, just to bash your little theory into oblivion from the start:

My school has plenty of funding. We have a $1 Million dollar Turf football stadium. So I'm pretty sure were not on too tight of a budget. The state grants us plenty of funding due to out extraordinary standardized test scores.

Then, just so any little fragment you have left to hold on to, I will bash that even further down the drain.

I am not 10, as Im currently attending High School which is a known fact, as I am writing this topic. Who's the "tard" now? I happen to be 16, 17 in September.

I am pretty sure I know what I am going to do with my life, and am planning on putting myself through college with my well-earned money. I will then consider marriage after my second year of school.

A new High School is opening up 20 miles from my current one. Overcrowding will not be a problem.

My Dad is in technical sales, and cannot grant me a job since I need a minimum of a Masters degree to even be considered to be hired in that area. Also, my Dad simply refuses to help me pay for college, because he thinks that if I pay for it myself, I will have more of an incentive to be their.

And finally: Dude STFU. I'm talking about missing ONE day of school. Do I need to repost the facts? Obviously they went right over your confused head. Just because we miss ONE day of school, isn't going to start a chain of events that lead to the destruction of education, and then human kind as we know it. Read the fucking facts that I posted, and maybe you will get an idea on how minuscule missing one day of school is. Also, find me one article on how skip day got started. Just one, the history of how it got started. Find me that and you will look like less of an idiot that you have already proved yourself to be.

Awesome cant wait. Three day weekend

Xsafire has a point, it's just one day, he's not going to end up at Mcdonalds.

 

[inpherus]

and yeah, missing ONE day of school isnt going to fuck you up.
im pretty sure all of you have missed ONE day of school from an illness? or anything? and since you can only be young once, go for it.

it would be awesome to make a website. then it would look more professional

Ok so your school has a stadium that they whore out , congrats what about the other kids on this forum that isn't that lucky? very very few schools have things like that going for them.

oh wow your 16, so what your a freshman something along there? congrats bud I have 3 years up on you and atleast 10 in intelligence (if you couldn't put that together I was refering to years there aswell)

once again the overcrowding thing isn't just to do with you, it has to do with other people learn to think more on a larger scale (and yes it would because if they kept runing it down they would be forced to that school and it will eventually do the same thing that it did to the old school.)

Your dad seems like a smart man congrats

Your an idiot, what "facts" did you state other than your a moron wanting to skip school, and as i said before "national skip day" is the day they figure out how much each kid gets for funding the next year you need to learn more about this topic before you can even remotely argue to me on the same level.
as for finding the begining of "national skip day" ask any teacher why the kids skip they will tell you, you are simply put an oblivious idiot.

I'm done arguing. No, your still an ignorant idiot, and you didn't win the argument so don't go and feel good about yourself.

Now, here are my last opinions on your uneducated post.

Who cares how old you are? I was merely defending myself from your idiotic insults that I stated how old I was (by the way, I'm a sophomore) . As for my school I wasn't bragging, I was also backup up your unproved "school collapse" theory, and that by skipping school it wont cause any school to have deducted funds. And the "facts" that I stated are these here...

One day out of 180 days of school, missing one day is a mere 0.5555555555555556%. Out of all your High School career, missing one day is an even smaller 0.1388888888888889%.

My guess it is probably over 8 hours. This doesn't even account for bathroom/water/etc breaks you take from class.
So even if your in school, your still missing a couple of days of educational time a year.

Now maybe since you have 10 more years of education then me, and you are 19, then the average person would assume that you would learn to read the entire page before making an assumption.

Also, if it is common knowledge on how skip day got started, then why can't you even find some hard evidence on what you claim are facts?

You are simply giving up because I have ran your whole credibility into the dirt. You have nothing you can possibly come back and say that will help your arguement, as for the proof. I told you where to find the proof your talking about not reading the whole post's? I did read your posts there the exact same as every scoring system in michigan aswell as I'm sure many other places. As for the whole where to get the evidence as I stated before ASK YOUR TEACHERS, ANY TEACHER AT ALL HELL EVEN ALL OF THEM, THEY WILL TELL YOU THE SAME DAMN THING THAT I DID. EVEN ALL YOU OTHER KIDS ASK YOUR TEACHERS ASWELL. So if you can't come up with anything against my arguement or atleast put my arguement in question. then I did win this confrontation. so have a good time I'm tired of argueing with the ignorant anyways.

 

[b1b]

Uhh no.

1. My parents wouldn't let me in a million years.
2. Skip days are pointless and boring, I'd rather be in school.
3. You've just had a vacation, you should be rested enough.
4. You go to school 5 days a week for 6 hours. When you are an adult, you'll be working 6 days a week for 8 hours a day.

Seriously, go to school...

1.lol....
2. come on seriously?
3. My vacation just started yesterday
4. i go to school 5 days a week
