Feebee, I do the stuff you do all the time, and I never get in trouble for it. o.x
In Japanese, I usually end up shouting profanities and cuss words. And Sensei never does anything about it. xD
We're allowed to chew gum in school. I always copy people's homework, even when the teacher is right there. I almost never pay attention - I'm always spacing. Talking hasn't been too much of an issue this year, but it still comes up. I write on myself on a daily basis, and whenever we get stickers back on our tests, I stick them on my forhead or something. I usually end up arguing with the teacher over a minor issue. (But of course, all of this depends on the class I'm in. I argue most in English, and I'm the loudest and most obnoxious in Japanese. I copy my friend's Geometry and Biology homework almost everyday. I chew gum in almost every class.) I've worn really short mini skirts to school, too, and no one's ever said anything to me.
And yet, I'm a straight A honors student, and MOST of my teachers like me. xD
Whenever I go through the metal detectors everyday, I set my cellphone and iPod on the table and I go through. I set the metal detector off everyday, and that usually requires one of the teachers/security guards to go through my bags. Except, I grab my phone and iPod and just keep walking, and normally no one says anything to me. Which is great, because I usually bring Advil and Sudaphed to school, in case I feel worse than the usual before I hit up track practice. If I ever got caught with even Advil, I'd get a minium 10-day out of school suspention, and have to go to court and convince them not to expel me. e.e
So obviously, my school cracks down on weapons and drugs. Hence the metal detector screening every morning and the drug dogs that come sniff out the school once a month. They don't really care much about anything else. Sexual harrassment is an issue though. If you report someone for sexual harrasment, the reported can expect a minium 3-day inschool suspention. And if your PSSA test scores are below proficient, they freak out and put in you PSSA Prep cources. We're an acredited(sp?) high school and a "feeder" high school, meaning we standardized text 6 times a year FOR PRACTICE, and then we have regular testing, that counts, on top of that. x.x (And yes, this is a public high school.)
But otherwise, the school doesn't really care what you do. Sometimes they crack down on dress code in May when everyone is wearing short shorts, but that's about it. My friend and I run through the halls screaming, "Buttsex!" at the top of our lungs almost everyday, and the teachers are more ammused than anything. xD
And yes, my discipline record is completely SPOTLESS. =]
EDIT: Ooh, I forgot to mention how often I eat food in class. xD Most teachers don't say anything, but sometimes Sensei will be like, "Katie, does this look like a cafeteria?" And I'm always like, "I wish." And then Sensei is like, "Put the food away." And then I'm all like, "I'm sooorry. I apologize, Sensei." It kind of comes off sarcastically though. xD
Sensei by far puts up the most crap in class. This kid Levi is a riot. He's HILARIOUS. When we're learning Kanji or reviewing ways to remember our Katakana, he describes vivid sexual positions and ways to remember the symbols that way, and Sensei usually laughs along. Like today, Sensei asked us what an untangible object was, and she was getting examples, "Like, thoughts, feelings, emotions, ideas, and -" Levi screams, "d***s!" 8D
