The best way to get action on something you want from your school is to get your parents to make the case for you. I would expect the bunch of us on clug to be in about the last place they'd expect to see useful advice. The way they think, we're probably no better than the dregs in the dreaded IRC channels they're trying to protect you from.
Lots of things in life suck, and school is right up there with a lot of them in many ways. You're forced to go, it's essentially a dictatorship, and they make the rules regardless of whether they know what they're doing or not. Explain what you want to your parents. Tell them what you want to do, what it's going to take, why what you have won't let you do that, and why they should let you. If you need any help explaining, we may be able to help with that. Maybe your parents can send a note in to the powers that be that'll get you what you want. Maybe the powers that be will find a way to make that happen. Maybe not. In the latter case, do what I do: thank your lucky stars that you're not living in some of the real hell holes in the world, and that this temporary irritating situation will pass in time. Good luck. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
