@bjkmom Thank you for the answer. How does the school know what I an applying to though? Is there something like a “universal database”?
For starters, the place you’re receiving tutoring is NOT going to follow up. They deal with kids all day long, with far worse anger issues than slamming a door.
Did they call your parents? Did they “suspend” you in any way? If not, then I really think you can assume this is forgotten.
To answer your question, I’m assuming you mean full time schools you attend, not after hours tutoring places like Huntington or Sylvan. As you transfer from one school to another, your transcripts go with you. When you leave one school, your parents are asked where you’ll next be attending, so that they can send your transcripts. You don’t get them, neither do your parents. It’s all done between the schools. That way they can try to ensure that you’re actually attending school somewhere… that your parents aren’t keeping you locked up in a closet or anything horrific of that nature.
Part of the process of applying to colleges includes having your high school send transcripts. There’s a procedure in place already-- they’ll have a “red card” or something similar that you submit to guidance that tells them where you want those transcripts sent.
Please, though. You sound like a nice kid. But in the space of 18 posts you’ve revealed two serious errors in judgement. (And the fact that you mention a “first suspension” implies that there are others we aren’t hearing about.)
You’re getting to the point in your life where you need to consider your actions. Actions have consequences, and the older you get, the more important-- and serious-- those consequences can be. Being any part of cyberbullying is not only bad for your future, it’s simply WRONG. Yes, even that seemingly benign “lol” is part of a pile on. It’s intended to make the victim feel worse about himself, and to encourage others to also pile on. There’s no “only” to it., and no need for the quotes on "cyberbully. If you were part of that groupchat, you were either part of the problem or part of the solution, and you chose to be part of the problem. Slamming a door is not an appropriate way to handle your anger. (I’m a high school teacher. Can you imagine me slamming a door when a kid did something stupid?? Absolutely not, right?? ) Please start to give more consideration to the effects of your actions.
You have to provide them with a transcript so I am not sure you can’t hide what HS you attended. Applications also ask which HS you attended and lying would be a reason to reject an application and even rescind an acceptance if they found out.
@bjkmom When I said first suspension, I didn’t mean to imply I had other suspensions as it was my first and only one. Also, thanks for your advice. After the incident, I wasn’t suspended and I don’t believe my parents were called, so I guess it’s fine now. From now on, I’ll try to be more careful about my actions
@123Mom456 I don’t think I had to send them a transcript.
One more question, what actually goes on a transcript and is it possible for me to check mine out?
Your parents would have to request it. I have no idea whether or not they’ll grant your request.
To be honest, I would stop looking back and start looking forward. Whatever is on your transcript isn’t going anywhere. Stop worrying about it and find schools where you’ll fit in and grow.
Alright thank u
