Never have I ever attended a middle or high school

Homeschooled or just not educated?

[–] 93maddie94@lemm.ee 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Homeschooled 1st-12th grade except for 4 months of first grade.

Funnily enough I have a masters degree and work in a public school

Maybe that's bc you're just not as traumatized by them as the rest of us.

Same here, it would be impossible since middle schools don't exist where I'm from

[–] 93maddie94@lemm.ee 3 points 2 days ago

Yeah I wasn’t sure how to word it because I know that different places have different naming mechanisms. But from 6-18 years old I was homeschooled. There was a co-op or two where I technically did classes with others, and I did a year of Cyber school before it was cool but most of my education came from me self-teaching from textbooks and “curriculum”.
