Go to school online.Connections Academy is an online high school.There are a lot of other high schools online.I wasn't late until I was a senior in high school.Luckily at my school, they didn't hand out detentions until you were late more than 3 timesa quarter. I came close though--really close.In college, I literally couldn't get out of bed dueto illness.You have to remember that a school runs likea factory or a ship right? So if everyone came inlate every day, then you would miss out on a lotof time at school. Think if 10 minutes were shavedoff of each class every day, you would miss out onan entire month of class each year!Wait until you work and you can't clock in early. You have this 3-minute window of opportunity.You really have to be at work 30 minutes to 1 hour early to avoid traffic jams etc.Lovely how we degrade workers to minutes and seconds.They tell you to hurry up, then when you hurry up they tell you to slow down b/c they can't get it right at thefaster pace. Just remember that until you graduate from high school youreally have to respect the teachers. You do have the right todrop a class though if you feel as though you will be unfairlytargeted or if the class isn't right (too hard or too easy) for you.Try to figure it out early on. Don't wait to drop a class.(I dropped a class in high school, and I'm sure that the teachstill has a grudge against me! Come on Mr. Smith it's been 20years!) Be prepared for that too. Grudges. They fester where youleast expect.
