Private schools WILL take you- if you have the buck$. Or should I say, if your parents have the $. (You should hear about the behavior of some of the kids at our local private school! As a tutor/teacher's aide- I hear it all!) Unless you're upper middle-class or better, I think the GED route is a better way to go. You will be done with the high school scene, and in college before your peers. (they may even think you're some sort of "brain", going to college so early-lol)

What you do with this disaster/opportunity, is up to you! You can just waste the rest of your life just getting stoned, going from one "McJob" to another, or you can make something special of yourself (and still get stoned:jointsmile: ). It's all up to you!- Granny:hippy:
Storm Crow speaks the truth here. Private schools will accept you if you can afford it. I go to a private school and kids have been caught smoking weed at school and have not gotten expelled but only suspended and had a bunch of detentions. Private schools care more about you than public schools do. If you apply to a local private school and explain what happens they will probably let you in if you say youre determined to work hard because you want to get into college.
