Back in highschool I got decent grades. I got kicked out of one class and failed the whole year because of that class. I needed those credits.

My friend got good grades but was absent over 50 times. Over 15 absences you fail but he actually passed somehow.

Is that fair in a way?

High School is all about being liked by the teachers.

You can get away with anything if the teachers like you ahead of time.

I know because I got away with a lot of shit.

Probably not fair, but in K-12 schooling it's all basically a dictatorship where the person in charge gets to just decree whatever they want and people are forced to go along with it. It's not at all like the real world where we have courts and stuff for people to address their grievances.

Yeah probably. Some kid got worse grades than me and failed miserably but he passed because he was a good football player for the school.

This happens at most high schools and colleges in America

I can agree my teachers loved me and I would've failed if it wasnt for that
