Well...that freaking sucks!

Wow, that's incredibly early. Nowhere here starts until the second week in september.

 

Huh, I figured the time ours started back in high school - around August 20th or so - was one of the earliest in the nation. Does your summer break start mid-May, then?

 

We go back in september and im at college!! Seems a tiny bit more fun than school though.

 

Where I live, the school year started in april, but for some reason they decided, when I was in 10th grade, to slowly bring it forward to January. So every year till I left school, we started a month early every year which just sucked.

 

I remember how much I hated that! They claim that it's for "football and other sports", so they have enough time to practice :dry:. It gets better in college. I went back August 26th last year, so...hang in there!

 

It oughtta be illegal! School should start in September like the good old days!

 

You aren't alone. My school starts on the fourth of August as well.

However, we also get summer break earlier. You probably do too.

...

Wait, you're from -

Hey...

...

SUSPICIOUS EYE GLANCE

I think we may live in the same area. Not many areas start like we do...

EDIT: Probably not. Tennessee is a big place. Would be an amazing thing if I actually saw you at school, though. :lol:

Ours do.

 

My high school did this, yeah it is because we got out earlier.

 

I don't start until the second week of September...I finish school in April aswell. So I think it may be your area

 

Haha I start on august fourth too haha cx

 

so unfair

 

So, let me get this straight. You are provided free education until college, and the thing you are most concerned about is that your school is opening 2 weeks earlier than you'd like?

Well, damn. No wonder I don't have any friends.

 

My best friend's school starts the first week of August. I feel bad for her, but I start after Labor Day! But then summer doesn't start until late June for me, so it all evens out I suppose.

 

Stop complaining, my school goes all year round.

 

I'm so bored that I would be willing to start school now! Though, I have to wait until the 25th...

 

If you're in post secondary, then almost all post secondary schools are like that, due to summer semesters either being a full 4 months, or 2 summer semesters condensed into 2 months each.
