Did you choose your school?

[UnknownError]

Obviously not Primary/Elementary or whatever. Like High School.

I wanted to go to the school 2 of my friends go to. How ever my parents made me go to the one for my area. :/
It actually sucks. Like seriously. I hate it. T.T
The school I wanted to go to is muuuch better. :(

ANYWAY so yeh, did your Parents let you choose?

[Haven]

Nah, my parents forced me to go where I go now. :/
I wanted to go to a magnet school for the visual arts, but they wouldn't let me.
So I tried another magnet school, and still no.
Thus ending up where I am now.

Which works out in my favour, my second choice has turned into a terrible school the last four years, and my first choice I would have to be at a bus stop at 6 am and get home at 4pm.

I chose, but it was the one either the one my sister or cousin was going to, so either way i didn't care. Alot of my friends went to a school that was closer to their area (i went to primary school in the next town over) and i'm glad i didn't follow them, it's kinda trashy and i met a ton of interesting people along the way.

Give it time, your 13 just in first year right? Everyone's scared of their shadow in that year lol give it time.

[Vonn]

I didn't get to choose, but I actually wanted to go to the school where I go now.

[FullyAlive]

I chose, I took the 11 plus and got into grammar school whereas my twin goes to the local comprehensive school my parents would have been happy either way but i wanted to go to grammar school so that's what I wrote down :)

Yep, first year. :P

[RAWWR]

I got to choose, although my mum told me the schools she would prefer me to go to, I ended up choosing the one she went to anyways, but then I wanted to move half way through due to bullying from teachers and students, but my mum wouldn't allow me.

[Jess]

to sum it all up, I didn't get to chose, but I didn't want to go to any other school district's high school. I like my current one.

[eatthis9999]

I Got to choose my school so i go to a grammar but if i didnt i was gonna get to choose a private school to go to

[JackOfClubs]

Yes. I didn't want to go to the area public school, and most of my friends went to the high school I chose. I don't regret it at all.

[Perseus]

No, since I go to a public school.

[PAfarmerkid]

Nope, I go to a public school, no biggy. Not a big school and it stays pretty calm. Small town, haha.

[Syvelocin]

My mum chose my primary school for me, a French Immersion school :rolleyes: I started really complaining about it later. But now, I wouldn't have it any other way.

No say in the rest of my schools until I chose online school for year 11. My stepdad chose the actual school, but it was my decision to try online school. And of course I chose my college. There are many schools I would prefer, but as far as Atlanta, it was my favourite.

[Tristin.]

i choses neither of my schools, always been put to one lol

i love my school though lol so yayayaya :D

[Charleigh]

Yes I chose the school im in now.
Mum and I had a big fight about it, she wanted me to go to an all girls school...
Thank FUCK she got it into her stupid head, I am a boy and girl person lmao ^^

[Dimitri]

Yes I did in a way..........I started off at Canton South but I then decided to go to Perry because they have the Pre-Med program that I am in now.

[closed]

I was able to choose, but my decision was just as my parents...

[Contra]

Yes, I did. It was the one I prefered, so my parents didn't interfere in my decision.

[Noooooooooo]

Nope. I go to the school which my parents chose. I want to move to another school but my parents won't listen =/

[Lonely_Shadow]

i go to public school so no i did not

[ikhasgkfjh]

Even though I am in Public School, yes I did.

[Sogeking]

I go to a public school so no, I didn't.

[Modus Operandi]

I wish I lived somewhere where there was more than one HS to choose from. I'm not particularly fond of my school, it was built in the '60s and hasn't received any major renovations in that whole time. Not to mention the musical arts department is relegated to two rooms on the very edge of the school. Our marching band is kickass though, so that's something.

[Wicked_Syn]

Yes, my mom let me choose and I love it haa

[Sova]

I didn't choose, wasn't even asked. It was presumed I would go to the public school with all the people from my primary. Either way I didn't mind though, the school is pretty shit but at least I met a few people that are cool, which makes dealing with everyone else slightly easier to bare.

[Ambrosia]

I go to a public school in a town that is counted as a "village" of maps. So no, I didn't have a choice!

[TheSleepingInsomniac]

I chose to leave my high school and go to the public grammar school this year

[Daniel_]

I didn't get to choose, however i'm quite fond of my school. If given the opportunity to choose right now, any school I wanted to go to, i'd stay where i'm at now.

[Quahog]

No. My parents really chose which schools I went to. There were good schools in my city, and there were also bad schools, and my parents always made sure I went to the good schools. It sucked, because most of my friends went to the bad school, and I wouldn't be able to talk to them.

[bvboy]

I was in one catholic school first, but it had all these ridiculous rules so I wanted to change schools, and I did, but to another catholic school which was actually way better, it helped e make my own choices and decide for myself what is the best thing to do in different situations. There weren't any stupid rules for no reason. I loved my school.

[Etzim]

I had no choice but to go to a private school. Forced by the district. Its no ordinary Private School....But I did choice to go to my technical school. But its like a job you have to apply to get in.

[EvilDeathMist]

my dad wont let me go to the one i want to cause its a city school, but i think i would do much better if i went there than to a subburban school

[Malcolm Tucker]

Yup. There are loads of secondary schools here. I picked one that suited me best :)

[Zephyr]

No, there was no other option. In any event, my high school was better then the other nearest other one, they had this crappy system called 'academies' where a counselor would place you in one of four and you had no choice in your courses.

I chose my college. I'm about to drop out though, they've raised the tuition from $69 per credit hour to $84, can't afford to go >_>

[Fushigi]

both me and my parents wants the school im going to :D

[Weeping]

It was pretty much my choice. Now my parents know that my school is wayyy better than the one I was supposed to go to.

[Skeptical Bear]

I just picked the closest school. I had no other choices as I didn't know what I wanted to do yet so I picked a "normal" school.

[HeroesAndCons]

No forced by district

[Alaph]

No, had to go to the closest.

[Marky]

Yup. I live in a different school distrect than my friends but my mom still lets me go to the one of my friends. plus we hav an early college high school so i chose to go there with some of my friends

[Quick_Sylver]

I didnt choose for elementary. I ended up going to 3 different schools, public, public, catholic. Now, Im homeschooling and chose my school for this, and next year chose the school Im going to then. :)

[kevinjk]

parents made me go

[Dunce]

I wanted to go to the local community school, which is literally right beside my house. But I was made go to the all girls school in the next town over ><

[lengthy_brochure]

I have deleted the contents of this post

[Fact]

Obviously not Primary/Elementary or whatever. Like High School.

I wanted to go to the school 2 of my friends go to. How ever my parents made me go to the one for my area. :/

The school I wanted to go to is muuuch better. :(

ANYWAY so yeh, did your Parents let you choose?

I had little choice in the matter. I hadn't even heard of the school I wanted to go to when my parents basically told me I was going there, moreso my father than my mother.

He basically condemned all public schools and said "if you're sent to mix with scum, Dad will end up in prison".
At the time I thought he was a bit insane, but now that I've been at private school for five years, I completely see why he did it.

I don't regret letting my parents choose at all - they made the right choice for me. I see where all my friends have gone and what they get up to at school and frankly I'm glad I left them all behind. The ones that I wanted to keep in touch with, I still do, so I don't have an issue.

Hope this answered your question ^^

[Paladino]

I didnt get to pick my primary school well because i was 4 lol, for high school i didnt really have the choice because there was only 3 high schools in my town back then and two of them were catholic so i had to pick the one i went to mainly because im not catholic and all of my friends were going there.

[starbrite5]

I got to pick my high school, but that's because it's a magnet school. You have to apply and decide to go. If I hadn't gotten in, I would not have gotten to choose.
