This morning I was issued my first ever detention and I was HYSTERICAL! I am in 11th grade and I have never yet, not once gotten a detention, why did it have to be now? I got in trouble for PDA, it's a long story. But I'm here for a while so I'll try to make it short.
--
I was sitting outside of school on the bench with Daniel and we were sitting right beside each other, not like smashing each others faces to one another, but considerably close. My friend Cody was on the other side of the bench talking to us and the Handicapped buses come up to let the kids off at the front of the school, so Cody for some funny reason sits down on Daniel's lap and one of the Bus Drivers came into the school (or called into the school) and said that There were two people so close to sucking the life out of each other and blah blah, and since they're bus drivers they don't know names so the principal automatically thinks that it's me and Daniel. Right before the Principle walks out Cody gets up because he's in ROTC and has to salute the American Flag, so then she walks out and tells us to follow her to the office. When it was all over with I was bawling. A detention is nothing to get hysterical over, but if you knew my parents then you'd know why. Im STILL mad!
Can any of you remember YOUR first detentions and what they were for?

i have never had a detention..........

1st and only detention was in 10th grade for being late getting to class 3 times in a short period of time.

I know a kid who has never gotten so much as his name on the board for his life... Not like a nerd either just a genuinely cool kid... owes 2 detentions now cause of our psychotic band teacher. And now she's saying if you've ever gotten a detention you can't go on the Six Flags band trip.

I had a few times....hmm liike probably five times in 13 years.

edit: Wait I read that wrong.

My first and at the same time last detention.

Not far from the school entrance, one of our friends was hit by a car and ended up in hospital. We wanted to visit him after the school hours. Unfortunately we needed the principal' s permission because some people of our gang were boarding students.
We didn' t get the permission for some reason, but still went. After she found out, she gave us 2 hours detention.


Ceterum censeo OTF esse delendam.

first: in elementary school for fighting

last: junior year in high school for flashing gang signs and wearing a red bandana.

Well, worthy cause there.

Never had one

i was always given detention then again for not going to it ....they never learned

My first detention was 2 years ago.... I took my friends snapple as a joke and the stupid 80 year-old lunch lady went insane! So me and my friend both got Dean's detention.

But now in High School we're allowed to go outside for lunch

We didn't really have detention. What happened was if someone was misbehaving or what not they were moved to another class. And sat at the back. Simple but effective.

Yeah we didn't either at first. When someone did something wrong they just got a nice punch to the nose...that taught us...

i remember my first detention....it was horrible!....it kind of all spiraled downhill from there one detetion right after the other

In middle school I went to detention twice, once for getting into a fight (my only one ever) which was all day detention, it was surprisingly awesome. Another time for screwing around in shop class.

In high school I had to go a few times. Once for talking in drafting class after the teacher had gotten pissed off, some kid asked me if I had an eraser, I said "yes" and the teacher got pissed and sent us both to detention. Another time was in PE, when we had to run the laps before we played our sports. We always had to do it within 12 minutes "or else we'd get sent to detention". However, the normal teachers never really cared, they just used it to try and get people done around that time. Coming in a minute or so later didn't make a difference. This day, we had a sub and I guess he was a stickler for the rules, a few friends and I came in like 20 seconds late, and all got sent to detention. Another time was because I was late 3 times to my math class. I think there were a couple others, but I can't remember why.

A friend of mine went to detention constantly, he ended up getting dropped from a class and had to go to detention every 4th period all year.

Detention really isn't bad. It was nicer then most of my classes. Got to just sit there and relax, didn't have to read or do anything.

Wow, you're bad! (Just Kidding). That PE detention was pretty ridiculous, I have to say.
I've never heard of 4th period detention! I'd enjoy that, My 4th period is English 3 *Snores* We're reading a boring story.

I havent had one .. yet

Thank your lucky stars.

You know, high school/middle school demonize detention so much. Like if you get too many you won't be able to make anything out of your life, and you'll be living in a gym until you resort to prostitution and have to die of AIDS. In truth, it doesn't matter. No one gives a shit how many detentions you got.

Yeah. Typically it's a miracle if any of my friends go a week without one! The stupid thing is, if you get 3 or more in a short amount of time then you automatically get A-School (I dont know if they have that where everyone else is, it's just a more dumb form of punishment that you're assigned and just go to a different more restricted place and do your work. You have NO communication with your friends. You must go to and from this place before and after school. They add on days if you're caught inside the school.)

bout 9 detentions this year for me

Yeah, but he's over the internet. And might I add I said "Just Kidding" I just want to know what causes him to get those 9 detentions.

God, two years ago I got at least 40 detentions in the same school year. since then I've been a good boy .......I got into fights over stupiid things, most about sports

I used to get detentions almost on a daily basis. There was the occasional fighting or vandalism incident that all hormone-ravaged teenage boys partake in at some point, but mainly it was because my teachers used to find me incredibly annoying. I'd start conversations with them about politics, philosophy or whatever they had strong feelings about, and just challenge and flat-out disagree with everything they said or believed in, even though I'd have absolutely no way of explaining why. Dumb ignorance rules.

Once when I was twelve, but it was work related. Three times when I was fifteen.

Suck it up.

I received 2 ISS's. (Inner School Suspension).

And that was very uncharacterisic of me. Me along with many others were very shocked.

is it comprehensible.....

i've had 3 when i was in high school, one for punching a guy in the head...and the other two i dont remember. maybe swearing, i'm not sure

never had a detention before

I've gotten so many detentions I couldn't even begin to count them. I've also been suspended a few times.

I feel evil compared to you guys. I got a dentention almost every day since my principal hated me.

five impositions in a term meant being detained on a Saturday.

Shitty.

We never get weekend detentions. Only after school or at lunch.

I think the idea was that it would make the normal impositions more of a deterrent ie it was taboo to get alot in a short space of time.

1st Detention... for calling my teacher "Mr. Fast" "Mr. ****".

Detentions on a weekend? Unthinkable!

Yeah they won't issue detentions on Fridays or weekends around here, thankfully. Otherwise there'd be some VERY pissed students here at NCHS.

Wow

I just got detention today for letting people cheat off me in keyboarding. I'm not worried about the actual detention, I just need to find an excuse for the parents.

How can people cheat off of you in keyboarding?

And what do you define keyboarding as?


I'm sincere in my quest for you answers, btw. I'm not being a jerk like some other members are being.



Welcome to KMC.

I can't remember any detentions but my last day in public school did involve violence and an agreement between me and the school for me not to return and them not to come looking for me.

So proud.

first time: 3rd grade for fighting

I assume that was directed at me.

Yeah, knowing the circumstances it was the right thing to do and I feel pretty good about it.

I'd do it again 5 times over.

I didn't mention my current education level. You might be surprised. No I'll pass on filling you in. You seem too smart to learn.

just realised this thread is like over 5 years old...
