i hate my school
i don't know what to do anymore. I go to this really really small school, there's only about 75 girls in the whole grade. It's an all-girls school. I've been to this school since I was in second grade. But, hate the school with a passion. I am not asking for much. I just want to transfer to a school that's cheaper. Well, atleast not for my mom, because I am on scholorship here. But, I don't even really think this school is a real school. It is like a pretend school. Personally, I have not learned anything and the teachers, since we have laptops at school, spend their time shopping online, and leave us, the students, to just do work. However, I can't do work if someone does not teach me the material. The school that I want to go to is also all-girls. Like, there are these four schools that all related. They are two all girl schools, and two all boy schools, so we kind of mingle with each other. But, my mom isn't giving into the idea of me transfering. She says that the people are still going to be pains no matter where I go. However, what she doesn't understand is that it is not the people. It is the institution, where I am not learning. Some people would think that it would be a dream not to have real class, but I don't think so, because I am being tested and expected to know all of this information that is not being taught to me. I have even tried explaining this to my mother, but she still doesn't nudge. Sometimes she gets really mad, and she says that I'm not even finishing the school year at my school, and I get all exited, and then she doesn't do anything. i don't want to bring it up to her anymore. My only other options are to get expelled by either doing something against the rules, which is out of the question, and failing myself out of school, which is also out of the question. No other schools would want me if I got kicked out of school for these reasons. My other option is to talk to the headmistress and tell her not to give me financial aid, which is the only way I can stay there. However, I don't want to hurt my mother, and I am a little nervous about doing that, but I have to work quickly. The enterance exam is soon, and most private schools in miami don't accept seniors. So, I have to apply as a junior. I am not sure about this school, but I just want to apply right away. All I want is a chance to try this. But, I want to find a way that I can show my mom, without actually having to talk to her about school, because I don't want to upset her anymore

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
I would just be honest with your mom. You've obviously thought out all the reasons for your transfer, and the consequences of not transfering, so it's not like you're just being irrational. I would say something like, "Mom, I've started to think about my future, and I would really like to go to college and get a good job, but I'm not sure that this school is preparing me enough for it. I would like your support to do this, and maybe we could go talk to the headmistress together and discuss our options."
Then, I would see if you could arrange to visit the school you're wanting to attend, either you or you + your mom, for one or two days. You may find out it's not much different from the school you're currently at, and decide that homeschooling or public school would be a better choice for you. Or you may love it and be able to tell your mom specific reasons why this is the school for you.
Maybe that will help you ... Good luck! :)
