So my fellow VT's, I have been toying with the idea of going to public school. I habe been homeschooled since 3rd grade. But my life has becone so dull...I'm in 9th now. I think the chances of this happening are high. So my point being, lay on your opinions and thoughts.

It will certainly diversify the range of people you are in contact with. You might also make new friends (and even enemies) but it could widen your view of life, and provide some fun, new oppurtunities.

You just need to be tolerant of the idiots who don't want to learn, those who insist on causing misery for others. And cooperate with teachers.

And that's completely normal. Grab it by the horns and try and enjoy it :)

You can always give it a go... If you dont like it that much you can revert back to homeschooling.

why would you want to be in a public school? it's not any better than homeschooling. besides, your social life is pretty busy and you learn much more than we do. am i correct?

No, not really. Besides the 2 friends that I see maybe twice a week. All I do is school in my room, gets pretty boring lol.

when you go go public school. try to make as many friends. and say yes to any opportunity you get. don't think about the future of the adventure just go with the flow. If you need any advice I will help you. :D

Try it :) you can get involved with clubs, more friends and well have fun then being stuck at home! They both have their pros or cons no matter what choice you choose.

Depends what you feel works best for you, if you feel you are tired of homeschool then go ahead and give it public school a try.
