For crying out loud, Ludacris is a rapper not a word! Ludicrous is how it's spelled. And FYI - capitalization and good grammar is still required in the adult business world! Anonymous, you are right, these comments are a sad statement about the whole situation!
All of these comments are a sad statement about the teacherr, students, and the schools. This is why I homeschool my children.
I agree with the other students who have spoken. All the material we'll need to learn wil be taught befoe the SOLs. This dramatic decision by the county has shocked me. Cutting into June like that is crazy. There is a certain amount of days students must stay in school, but not all those days are needed. Let's say that we need to stay in school for 180 days, we'll only need 150-170. After the SOLs, we either review or have fun. Some kids don't even go to school in June, and their parents let them. After the SOLs, no one takes school seriously. They spend hours on those long tests, after that they just rest. By June everyone will be too tired to even think about school. Many will have plans and go on vacation. I personally will not be at school during those days. I'll be too busy at home playing on my xbox 360. I can't wait to leave home and go to college. Atleast then i'll be able to leave this county and go to a much better one.
