Question::
how do I tell my grandparents/parents I have ISS (In School Supension)?

I've never been in any kind of trouble before, and now this!

There's a first for everything.

Just tell them that you were suspended. After you butter them up with gifts, compliments about their hair (especially the women), and make breakfast for them in bed.

Just tell them or don't. It's better then OSS.

Tell them "It wasn't my fault!!!!!!!!" and make up a story in which you're the victim.

Because they sent a letter home telling your parents that you have it.
And I rather them hear it from me then in a letter.

but the letter came in the mail today, papa beat me to the mailbox I was going to steal the letter and throw it out, but he got it.
He coudln't read the Asst. principals writing so he had me tell him what it meant. I said it meant that I was doing bad in a class. He told me to work harder and gave me the letter to throw away. Said it was a waste of paper to say I was doing bad in a class, he could wait from report cards.
LMAO

YAY!!!

Hahaha, well what did you do?

My school types up lovely papers AND makes a phone call home. Middle school ISS's were better, because you'd just be put in a room with other bad kids and a teacher, so it was like a long studyhall. But in high school you have to follow around the teacher who's doing the ISS that day... so everyone knows you're in trouble.

Don't tell them because thewy wont know. If it's during school hours, how will they find out? If you have Saturday school, that's a different story. I had Saturday school, but I never went because I didn't want my parents to find out that I had gotten in trouble. Since I didn't go, they gave me ISS instead, which is stupid becaus I got caught ditching and ISS is basically making me not go to class. Dumb dumb dumb. Anyway, if they (your parents) need to sign something, just forge it ;)

The mom in me is going to step aside for a second. XD

I've always thought that ISS types of punishments were dorky. I think that some of the reasoning behind it is that if you send the kids home, they're just going to dick around and have fun anyway, which really isn't much of a punishment.

So I guess you weren't truthful with the folks,huh? Oh well. There are far worse things that you can do. Stay out of trouble though, because if you get into more trouble, the communication with your parents might be more than just a letter, and may indicate that this isn't the first time you've had a school related punishment.

If there isn't any way for them to find out from letters and stuff, I guess you don't have to tell them. What did you do, though? _unsure.gif You're in school anyway. If worse comes to worse, get the paper before they do. Eep. Evil conscience.

I got caught skipping class. A class that was tech over with.
Like a college professor came out to the school and taught a few classes, I was in two. They ended Mon but he came Wed also, and I didn't go that day.

I don't see how it makes sense, but I got away with it and that's all that matters to me.

I'm not a troublemaker anyway. I'm 16/ a junior and this is the first trouble I've EVER been in so... it's def. NOT likely to happen again. So, no worries about having to hide other things from my folks.

XD Yay! Finals are over with!!! NO school until Jan 3rd!
