I was lucky and was able to graduate and go to college too. My husband didn't have as supportive parents so he didn't finish high school and had to get a GED. Life is not always easy for everyone.

I graduated high school, joined the army, and when I got out I went to a vocational school to learn a trade.

Yes, I graduated high school sixth out of 389 students.  I do wish I had gone on to college.  I didn't have any support from my parents to pursue college and didn't have enough in me to try it on my own.  That's one reason why I was so supportive of my daughter and did everything within my power to see that she got a good college education.  I apparently did a good job because she is 27 years old and still in school!  She has two bachelor degrees (chemistry and biology), a master degree in education and is now working on her PhD in mathematics.  She is currently teaching high school chemistry and biology in Lexington, KY.
Have a wonderful day!

Finishing high school isn't an option.  If you are under 18 you can be or your parents can be arrested if you don't go to school.  And if you go til you are 18 you can't lack much so why not just finish?

No I was too badly bullied, but I kept on getting certificates, receptionist, accounting clerk, CPR, but I am older person  :moneymouth: on my last class on on-line school.  I am putting my application at the WWE for administration assistant so cross your fingers on that because I really am.

I only had to have 1 class when i was a senior, but i did a few elective classes just because i had to be there for that one class. Later in life i took some vo tec classes and a few classes at the colledge that i need to move ahead as a manager in a retail store. Enjoyed them all. Now that i have had to retire due to medical problems i really miss working. I like it.

I got my GED instead of finishing high school.  I didn't go to college, but I'm thinking of going.

I finished high school.  I was the first person with a disability in the history of my county to attend my high school.  I graduated high school in 1995.

I graduated from high school in the top 10 percent of my class.  I did not have the money to go to college, so I went to a 10-month business class.  After working about 45 years, I went to night classes and obtained an Associate's degree at 65.  Now I taking online courses, hoping someday to get my Bachelor's.  You're never too old to learn.  I like learning for learning's sake!
