Welcome to Futon County Schools, where they DON'T teach you how to get to your next class on time.

Does your classes starts at weird times as well? For example it ends at 8:45 and starts at 8:47?

Tripping and falling would just be a life altering catastrophe. Good thing recess and gym class aren't a thing!

I'm not talking about one person over here, tripping in the middle of a crowd that's on a hurry that is.

Schools that micro-manage students lives like this are only bringing in issues which will affect their personalities further down the line.

 

In my primary school back in the 90's each class ends with a short 10minute break before the next, supervised by the teachers, in my high school we had a 5 minute break and a 2minute "pass" time which basically meant you had 2minutes from the start of class to make your arse there, it was not enforced with bloody detention though unless you was consistently late.

 

It's time these schools got rid of this zero tolerance crap, because soon the students will have zero tolerance for their crap, and a tragedy will happen.  They can learn the impact and consequences of being punctual at college/uni.

usually, it is 3 unexcused tardies(lates) and then a privte detention, which doesn't go on your record

Record? shit none of my schools kept a record, detention was detention, not fucking "my first jail".  You got detention you sat, did your detention, and left.  The following day was a new day, and no record was kept, often the teacher doing detention was just marking work and had you doing extra homework while you sat. End of really.

Superintendant? IDK how your schooling system works but in Asia there is no "SuperIntendant".

 

If the principal, head teacher or headmaster is treating you like this then you are royally screwed.

I take it no one has ever taught you how to write a formal Full Block letter? Or any form of formal letter? If you ever intend on doing something like this again, go google them first. Especially the fact that you made it anonymous. No offense, but if I received that letter, I'd throw it out and not give it a second glance. Even if the accusations were true.

 

You expect me to read and listen to it, you had better write a professional, formal letter, with precise details, dates, and times, that I can look into. The information you gave him was practically worthless. He can't use that to find out about specific events. And if he goes to someone who's breaking the rules, and says "Hey are these general complaints true", they'll just lie.

 

It's a lot harder to lie when he has specific facts, dates, names of teachers involved, etc. Hell, he could then go pull security footage, etc. But with your letter, he can't do much at all.

 

Take this as a lesson in life. Despite the fact that your claims may be justified, how you go about doing something is just as important as why you're doing it.

I'm in the Infantry. Been there, done that, on a much more stressful level. It still doesn't work that fast.
