Registration

Today was registration for Surly Teenager.  She is a Sophomore.

Oy.  The standing in line.  When will they ever get to the point of if you went to the school last year, you can register on line, or something?  I'll tell you when, the year after she graduates!

And of course there was a problem with her schedule.  They didn't put her in gymnastics like she requested.  Instead they gave her Spanish 1, because she didn't pass it last year.  But only 2 years is required, so she wanted to put it off until Junior and Senior year.  And I found out American Sign Language can be taken as a foreign language.  Anyway, they also had her down for 1 semester of Algebra 1, instead of her Pre-AP Art 2-Drawing.

So we went to see the counselor.  

Last year she did fail the first semester of Algebra 1.  But since she did not fail due to an attendance issue, she was given the opportunity to make up the credit by taking a 7:00 AM computerized, self paced Algebra 1.  So she did.  But it did not make it onto her transcript.

I have an email from the teacher saying she passed, which I will be sending to the counselor.
 
She had to have her ID picture taken about 7 times.  She kept blinking when the flash went off, and the picture would come out with her eyes closed.  They finally had her look up, and they got the picture.  She hates it.  She thinks she looks stupid.

I think they captured her true teenager spirit. It looks exactly like she is rolling her eyes, saying WHATEVER.
