High School Diploma

IP: 4287 3F49

I saw on tha news that the Board of Education said that the high school diploma is losing its meaning. So that led me to ask where do you kids keep your high school diploma? My moms got mine at her house on tha damn fireplace thingy next 2 my brother's its a damn shame cuz i graduated from a different skool then my brother and his diploma is damn near twice the size of mine!!!!!!!!

Edited for spelling fuck ups

i didn't have to, it seems like you have already did it!!


do people take their diplomas serious in america??
what does it do?
i know it something to do with passing your exams or whatever, but it seems like you frame it an then put it up?
in uk we get our results slips, put them in our ROA an take them to jobs.

I graduated from an American school in London so i don't know how they do it in the states, but we got a framed kinda piece of paper wit our name on it, and rather or not we graduated with honors (fuck my Art teacher) then we got some little piece of garbage shit that we were supposed to keep, i threw mine in tha air wit my hat and called it a day.

yeh but who wants to hire a dumb fuck?
an plus with out G.C.S.E's you chance of getting a strore manager postion will be highly unlikely,
you would just stay stuck at trolley pusher.
so they do matter, my friend works at KFC, if he gets an a level in maths, he get a 10% raise on his hourly rate!

sounds like a plan to me, high school diploma in America is important because they are becoming rare, with the military starting to hire people with GED's because of the lack of people re-enlisting after the war a High School Diploma is important. Not really the diploma itself but what it represents.

Mine would be in the making.

It will be a gangster diploma. I got expelled, so I go to a school for expelled kids. It will be written a Kleenex probably.
