We have to help the OP with his dilemma. Tell your school that you learn things on Chess.com that they don't teach in high school. For instance......the GPS is not always right. Case in point, a drunk woman was driving down the stairs recently in Maine. When the Police asked her why, she said she was only listening to the GPS as instructed. You will ONLY learn this on Chess.com. Stairs are not made for driving.

One thing can be learned here: Chess.com is not the place to go for sympathy.
Well it used to be...

Devices (beepers) where not allowed when I was a child. Not many people had cell phones (kids defiantly didn’t have them). And even though we had a computer lab we were never on the internet. They locked our middle school down once because my best friend had something on his key chain that made a beeping noise. The teacher thought someone was hiding a pager and not confessing. A police officer went through our bags while we lined up in rye hall way. But even when they found it they interrogated him wanting to know what it was. It was just to help find the keys if lost but they just couldn’t understand and still treated him suspiciously.
Eventually when kids did have cell phones our local high school would not allow them on campus. Parents protested and the kids brought them anyway. Nowadays…..oh how times change

On balance, I think I'm glad that I went to school in simpler times. No internet, no cell phones, no PCs, no handheld calculators. You walked or rode your bicycle to school. Somehow we survived...

This thread is a good example as to why the ban may have been placed on CC at the school. If it were only games being played maybe there would be time and place rules. Since this thread and most others more properly fall into the (anti) social websites, it is no different than twitter and Facebook in the the school. There is plenty of time after school and homework to visit CC and play hundreds of games.

I even survived the “board of education” administered by the Vice Principal. The only media I had was eating my sack lunch in my ‘62 Buick listening to Paul Harvey News and Comment and the Stock Report. Alone.
