Asshole Students

In almost every class there is always a group that doesn't give a shit about school.  They never shut the fuck up, make fun of everyone else, and make it a bitch to learn anything in class.  Think about it, why does the school make them come to class?  If they don't care about it, they don't, then why should they ruin it for everyone else?  They think they're cool talking non stop and making snide comments when the teacher is talking.  They obviously don't care.   Why should the students, and especially the teachers, have to deal with this?  If a kid doesn't make an effort to even try, they shouldn't be able to come to class.  Make 'em sit in the library, who cares, just get them out.

Thoughts of a High School Student

Some people might argue it helps teenagers develop into adults, maybe.  But from the view of teenagers now it's all just pretty useless.  We learn about stuff that will probably never help us in, let's say, ten or fifteen years.  We should only be taught the essentials to daily life; basic math, English, an PE to keep us fit.  All the other extra baggage can be taught to you depending on the profession you want to pursue.  Because honestly, lets face it, we won't use half the shit we learn.  For instance if you want to become a journalist, why do you need to learn about atoms and the difference between active and passive transport?  Schools should realize that nobody, beside the usual teachers pet, wants to learn about half the crap they shove into our ears six hours a day five days a week.
