im a junior at this elite private high school, and ive recently been in a predicament. through a great misunderstanding i got caught for cheating by sharing notes with another student. We had no intention of cheating and thought what we were doing was fine…but obviously it wasnt. personally, as my parents agree, i think the school overreacted for i am now on academic probation. this means if any LITTLE thing happens at all under my name i will be expelled. (even recently there was a report of cheating in my ap bio class…and i was the first to be inquired even tho i didnt do anything)
Since the first incident was so minor, i am terrified that something might happen again within the next year. (my school expelled this kid 2 weeks before their graduation for practically nothing) Its put me under a great deal of stress, making it impossible to relax in school. My parents have witnessed this new stress in my life and have been talking to me about transferring to a nearby public highschool. At this point I am honestly considering. i LOVE LOVE LOVE my friends/teachers at my school and ill be absolutely heartbroken to leave…but if it stops me from being expelled ill obviously do it. My whole goal these past 3 yrs is to get into U of I engineering program…i will do anything to make that dream possible even if it means transferring my senior year. aghhh but idk
Should i push through my senior year at the risk of easily being expelled for something stupid or little? Or should i transfer and start fresh? Also will u of i care that i transferred my senior yr (if i do)?
