Should I stay in summer school?
I enrolled in summer school to take a class that I really don’t need. I can get the credit I need for it by taking it over the real school year. I thought it wouldn’t be that bad, but I hate it. It has completely taken over my social life, because I have homework or need to study(my mom makes me study even though I don’t need it). My mother drives me to school, but I have to walk two miles to get back home from the bus stop, and by then it’s midafternoon, so I can’t go out, or do anything. I don’t know ANYBODY in my class either, I feel like such a loser.
It’s a one-month course, and I’m already a week done with it, but it was horrible. My legs are sore, all I get to is math, and I don’t have anybody to talk to at school. By the time the course is over, I only have two more weeks of vacation. My family wants to go somewhere, but I need time to recouperate before the school year starts. Should I drop out or stay?

if you don’t like summer school, talk to your mom about it, and have a compromise.

I had no social life whatsoever in school. All the people that had their groups and friends always came to me for the answers. Just because you don’t know anyone doesn’t make you a loser. Starting something only to quit would make you a loser. Friends aren’t nearly as important as education. If you honestly feel that the class will be of no future help to you then quitting would not be a problem. I have always found that I can learn everything I want and still not know what I want to know. More education is always helpful. The most beautiful girl in our school always told me that I was a loser. She had plenty of friends.
To this day I have completed high school, 4 years of college, 6 years in the U.S. Army, and I have a fantastic wife and two children.
The popular girl has 9 children by 9 different guys and she remains on state assistance.

If you can take the same class over the real school year, then it’s doing the work twice for the same credit. This is just my opinion, but I would drop out if you don’t need the course.

You probably don’t want to hear this, but you really need to talk this over with your mom. Try to get your reasons together before you talk to her so you can discuss it without sounding whiny or yelling or anything, just like you’ve learned a good lesson out of it.
