| That's really awesome. School can be a lot of fun, good friends and memories to come for you for sure.
How was home schooling for you? A cousin that I don't see too often was home schooled for a while and she actually loved it but she said it was difficult for her parents to teach to the school curriculum so she ended up in a situation the opposite of yours and had to do some summer courses to get her learning up to par.
again congrats on the great test results and good to see your summer is going well. |

| That's great news Tim.
Hope you have cool contacts with the kids in your class.
Study hard so you know a lot more then when most of us went to school.
That's years and years ago.
Is your new school in the town where you live or do you have to travel to go to school?
You started secondary school on a home base?
Here all kids go to school and there are no home schools.
Yep yep I know the distances are an other story there where you live than here where I live.
Enjoy you time at school. |

| Watertown has it's own elementary, middle, and high school here. They are not large schools, but kids on this end of our county go here. My wife graduated from Watertown High School back in 1988. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

Graduated from The Auqacity Stump Broke Learning Center, then married you. That explains so much about Holly...  |

Wellll these are Canadian schools we're talking about. Take last year in the biology lab for example where the heat stopped working in the middle of the winter, the class literally had to get close lol = good friends + good memories |

| In Tennessee, if the heat goes out, the school closes and sends everyone home! _________________ I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

I got really tired of it, cause i was home schooled all my life so I just got bored and there really wasn't any motivation to get me going. There was no extras like field trips and of course sports and well friends! Oh and the school is less than a mile from my house. |

| My kids love being homeskooled, but they all had at lease a few years of public education. My highschooler actually still takes a few classes at the Highschool.
But my wife does at least one field trip a month with the kids to help keep the boredom down.
